At my big state U, they used the recession as an excuse to open the trough wide and long

We've lost funding! Need to double tuition this year!

And then 50% the following year, 30% the next, etc.

So basically what they did was pass all the pain of the recession to students, none to administrators and faculty

Now it's just like a permanent form of welfare for academia

creation of GradPLUS loans and elimination of bankruptcy protections for private student loans probably helped some.

the '08 crash pushed things a lot higher too. with fundraising down and building loans less available, universities, instead of tapping their endowments, just jacked tuition rates 10% to 30% to make up their budget shortfalls.
