A number of things have lead to this.
* Student loans detaching cost from time of service, similar to insurance and medicine
* Diminishing support for public colleges. In California UC and CSU schools were essentially free to Cal redidents until mid 60s.
* Metastatic administrations, partly for compliance and partly because the money is there. It sure isn't going to faculty.
