'Harvard Should Be Ashamed': Kim Kardashian Slammed For Giving Lecture at Harvard Business School与丢弃合作·卡戴珊周五参观了波士顿founder Jens Grede to talk to students about the shapewear company.

Though she might not be best known for her business acumen and entrepreneurial knowledge, it goes without saying that reality starKim Kardashianknows a thing or two about running a successful empire.

But not everyone is sold on Kardashian being the one to dole out advice. The star faced backlash on social media over the weekend for giving a speech at Harvard Business School.

Kardashian visited HBS in Cambridge, Massachusetts on Friday with Skims co-founder Jens Grede to talk to students about the shapewear company for nearly two hours as a part of a direct-to-consumer seminar.

Many took to Twitter to criticize Harvard's decision to invite the 42-year-old to speak at the highly reputable institution.

"I'd hate to pay that Harvard tuition $$$$ to only get her as a speaker," one user bluntly wrote. "Do Better, Harvard."

Not everyone was anti-Kardashian, though. Many pointed to the success of her multiple business endeavors as grounds for credibility.

"I don't get what the hate is about. A bunch of jealous people," one userpointed out. "The reality is, she wasn't born ultra wealthy. She created a company, leveraged her talents, and built a brand."
