Having been tipped to the awesome DocumentaryWIRE site, I've spotted "Cashing in on degrees," an episode of a British show called Dispatches that examines the drastic imbalance between student debt and executive wealth at UK universities: "Cashing in on degrees." Save 45 minutes sometime soon to watch this, as much here seems applicable to what's happening on this side of the pond too. Here it is on Youtube (DocumentaryWIRE aggregates a lot of its free, full-length content from Youtube):

Also, the episode's host Laurie Penny is an excellent journalist whose Twitter feed as @PennyRed is worth following.
