Universities are not angels in this. MIT can fund all of their other classes with just what the Freshmen pay. 91/92 Supreme court ruled that if they give enough charity in the form of tuition reduction, they wouldn't be taxed. And so they kept raising prices and so did all the other schools. Terrible decision and schools should be on the hook for any defaulted student loans.
