Perhaps a system where anybody can attend but the public tuition stops being paid for them if their GPA falls below some threshold? But then you get the problem of shoddy colleges popping up that accept everybody and give everybody good grades. I think restricting the public tuition to non-profit schools would help solve that problem, in addition to strict caps on salaries of different classes of university employees. As long as people don't see running a shoddy university as a way to make money for themselves, they'll probably stay away from it.
