We may be confusing "private" with "for profit" here.

plenty of private universities are making a killing in the modern collegiate market. they keep raising their tuitions and the loans catch up. with a constant supply of students, and a guaranteed payment, why wouldn't they?

There is nothing much the matter with private universities.

kids don't rack up $200k in debt from undergrad with a major in english by going to a public school

Which is no different from what public universities are doing. The difference between private (USC, Miami, etc.) and non-profit (University of Phoenix, Western Governor's, etc.) is that you have a generally respected degree and coursework to show upon graduation.
