Think of what all the student loans and Pell Grants have contributed to inflation in the college tuition sector. The cost of education has probably grown 10-fold in the past 40 years while everything else has seen inflation rates of ~4% at the worst. When I think of my school, I know that the bureaucracy has grown probably 20-fold in that time.

Almost correct, the real inflation driver is executive salaries, when a run of the mill CEO thinks he is worth a million bucks a year, what do you think a well educated CEO of a university thinks he is worth. The pay given to joe blow city manager is also off the damn chart.
