I agree with your basic point that beans and chips cost £1.50 and a warm meal with (say) chicken/starch/vegetables costs around £2.50. Some rebalancing of the subsidy would be a good idea.
'Tuition' costs (i.e. everything except the canteen subsidy) are a tad hard to fine tune in Colleges. And remember someone has to put the stuff on the Internet - in the UK its quite often teachers in there spare time or as part of a project.

WRT 'stuff on the internet' - I wasn't thinking necessarily exam revision material; more Wikipedia, the C++ reference, etcetera. Project Gutenberg for an English student, etc. I've always considered the examinations as a starting point - probably an artifact of living in a near winner-takes-all society.
