I doubt that if they went to a top ranked college, pulled in around the top 10% of their graduating class, and had a major that is highly desirable they wouldn't be able to find work.
I mean unless unemployment is extremely high, being at the top of your class, at a excellent college, I'd see no reason for unemployment unless your personality is just really bad.
It's not about smart it's about being practical to the market. Are your friends 4.0 students graduating from a top 20 university with a degree in the hard sciences?
Now that's a great argument. Just be in the top 10% of the top 20 schools and you'll be all set. You've set a threshold for success at < .01% of college graduates to be assured success. What you're saying is that for 99+% of college graduates, and 100% of non-college graduates, don't be surprised if there are no good jobs to be found.
While i don't think prospects are quite as dim as that, you've painted quite the picture of the land of opportunity.
