So Long, Stanford


Some high-powered corporate recruiters are scratching Stanford B-school off their lists. Here's why:

DELL says student snubbing and lack of interest are too much of a hassle and a waste of resources

INTEL cites failure to lure candidates and lack of guidance from the school as reasons it will stop visiting the Stanford campus this fall

AMGEN won't go back because student salary expectations are sky-high and candidates won't move to the biotech company's Southern California headquarters

TOYS 'R' US is abandoning recruiting at Stanford because students repeatedly turned down the retailer's fast-track executive program in New Jersey
