Also, these fees aren't going to the faculty so they won't improve the education experience. For the most part I've been pretty happy with my business courses, but the UofC has been promising smaller class sizes for years and hasn't come through on it.

Thats where they're going right now too, all my engg buddies, we're all looking for jobs in the oil and gas companies and we got our education when the tuition was less. I've yet to meet a person who was looking to do otherwise and that comes from the fact we all have loans etc we need to pay off than we can look to go help out the non-profit groups. So $10 or a $20 loan we have to pay it before we can lend a hand.
