these have an overrepresentation of Ivy League MBAs in them with a pedigree that has nothing to do with promotions. People see the Ivy League MBA as key to this and aren’t interested in the other things an MBA can do. The jobs these disillusioned alumni have were attainable without the MBA.

When you make such broad statements, then walk them back in comments downstream, it makes conversation unfruitful.
“improved” is the operative word that you seem to ignore or view as contradictory
the MBA did not improve their work prospects, they already had work prospects. you asked for a clarification, you call the clarification backtracking
do you have an actual opinion on the topic now that its more clear for you
"despite the small sample size"
"despite their ambitions"
for people with the typical archetype "it amplifies their ambition if they want"
"whether it has anything to do with their race or not"
"the “average salary” of MBA alumnis is not what is interesting about getting one"
the point is for more examples that show its not a waste of time for ambitious BIPOC, and what archetype would help integrate them into the archetype that often happens to also have an MBA. is it possible to obtain this archetype or are we really in a caste system.
