LazyWeb: Industry-wide MBA Placement Rates?
Anyone have a decent ongoing source of industry-wide MBA placement rates, ideally including historical figures? Lots of individual schools publish figures, but I can't find a central storehouse.

I don't know how much faith you should put into numbers the schools publish.
I went to a college that had a pretty terrible comp sci program and they advertised a 99.7% placement rate. 112 people started, 9 graduated and, of those 9, I know of 2 that had related jobs, 2 had somewhat related jobs (the same jobs they had before starting the program and all throughout), 3 were either unemployed for quite a while or worked in a completely unrelated field and 2 went to university.
They still advertise a 99.7% placement rate.
