Kim Kardashian arrived at the hallowed halls of Harvard University on Friday with TV cameras in tow.

The reality TV star and entrepreneur, 42, made an unexpected visit to Harvard Business School on Friday morning as a guest lecturer for the fourth-annual installment of "Moving Beyond Direct-to-Consumer" session led by entrepreneurs. The visit proved to be quite a surprise for staff and students, most of whom were unaware she and SKIMS co-founder Jens Grede would be in attendance for the event.

Dressed in a wide-leg pinstripe black pantsuit and black leather trench coat with pointy-toed boots, Kim was dropped off at HBS on Friday morning and "was basically whisked inside the building," according to an attendee. She joined the classroom session and discussed her various business ventures.

"She talked about what she'd been working on and this new private equity firm and SKIMS," one attendee told PEOPLE. "She was sitting off to the side but was still involved with the lecture."

Upon her departure from the school, Kim caught the eyes of waiting cameras but still made time to greet fans and followers.

"She really looked just like she did on TV. she was stunning, and it was exactly how she's pictured. That's exactly what she looks like," the source added. "When she was leaving, she waved at us and said hi as she was walking out."

However, her visit didn't prove to be a long one. After flying into Boston late Thursday evening, Kardashian's private plane had already departed Boston by Friday afternoon.
