...it tends to get bigger somewhere else. Inside Higher Ed today carries two stories about public universities where, due a funding squeeze, more out-of-state students were brought in whose higher tuitions subsidized the remaining in-state students. One piece refers to the U of Virginia, an early follower of the so-called "Michigan Model" in which the cross-subsidy was used. The other piece refers to Purdue. Note, of course, that if you squeeze hard enough, you may not have a balloon at all.
The two items are https://www.insidehighered.com/quicktakes/2015/08/03/virginia-governor-questions-out-state-admissions and https://www.insidehighered.com/quicktakes/2015/08/03/purdue-tuition-freeze-now-majority-out-state.
