Someone pays for it.
I don't think anyone is under the illusion that education is free. However, it benefits society as a whole, and not everyone may be able to afford it. So, it is often in the interest of society to make good tuition affordable, regardless the background of a student.
Of course, it is also beneficial for the student. But for that we have the tax man :).
