Assuming it’s true, I think the government should step in because price fixing is illegal, really doesn’t matter who or why, and the students who paid more because of this scheme should be compensated.

And having all these schools’ names be dragged through the mud during the court proceedings will further your goal.

Is price fixing illegal? It’s applied very inconsistently. Farmers have their prices fixed. Shkreli wasn’t so lucky. During hurricanes it was illegal to raise prices. But Nixon enacted a price freeze too.
