Essentially the price of a collegiate education outweighs its quality has a lot to do with Economics 101...INFLATION! :-(

inflation, the proliferation of administrators, and constant upgrading of technology. The teachers sure as heck aren't getting bigger salaries, trust me.
Added later: okay, some teachers will get raises (especially those at major universities or pricey private schools) but the norm for those at smaller state universities and medium-sized schools is often less than the rate of inflation.

In order to get the best faculty, you have to pay them well. At a university, you try to attract the best researchers in the business and they don't come cheap. Just remember, you get what you pay for. If you go to a cheap school, you'll probably get a faculty that is less prepared to prepare you for the real world than one where you pay more. Like I said, you get what you pay for.

Because demand for college education outpaces supply.
