I think it's more for improving your recruiting chances (see school's image) and also for increasing the average GMAT score of the institution.
This is slightly off topic, but the point you made above is something a lot of people don't understand.
Business schools, in and of themselves, are a business. How do they attract students? One way is through outstanding job placement stats.
So although schools want to create a class "mix" that makes attending the school fulfilling, they also want to make sure the students they admit will get jobs and boost employment stats.
