Occupy Harvard Rally - November 28, 2011. Goldman Says Class Dismissed as ‘Occupy Harvard’ Mars Recruiting Sessions. Goldman Sachs Group Inc.
(GS) and Morgan Stanley (MS) are getting a chilly reception at top colleges, including Harvard University and Princeton University, as campus offshoots of Occupy Wall Street target investment-bank recruiting events. Goldman Sachs canceled visits to Harvard and Brown University last week following a November incident where Occupy Harvard protesters attempted to enter a recruitment session.

Last year, more seniors who took jobs after graduation (16.5 percent) took them in finance than in any other sector of the economy; in 2010, the figure was 31 percent. Finance is popular (and at the salaries it pays, why wouldn’t it be?) And trying to make it more difficult—or at least more uncomfortable—to enter is sure to produce resentment. Occupy Recruiting.
