There's a very simple and predictable explanation for this. The education bubble is caused by the federal government guaranteeing (and eventually outright subsidizing and providing) student loans.
Schools do their best to fancy up campus and provide ancillary benefits to trick parents/students into thinking it's worth it, but the quality of the education has not risen. Most would argue it has declined precipitously.
Call this rant off-topic if you wish, but when the bubble bursts you better believe institutions like UD will be impacted dramatically.
