Distinguished or important personage
gollark: According to random internet articles per-person spending is twice as large as in basically every other country ever still.
gollark: I think a more plausible explanation is along the lines that there's a lot of indirection - people don't *directly* pay the full very large price - and, due to other things (devaluing of the degrees, making *not* having one a stronger signal of problematicness somehow, and bizarre "prestige" factors), many people can't really just go "hmm, no, I don't want to pay that much" so they go up.
gollark: It says something like 40% don't actually bill students, too...
