Some rich people get sick with a rare condition, they fund research addressing it. Sure, others may benefit from it as well, but it's not exactly selfless philanthropy, is it.

It's always been thus, only bit more so recently.

UC (California) schools are recruiting more out-of-state and international students who pay higher tuition. Other state schools are probably doing similar.

Ivy League schools have always done so giving preference to legacy and wealthy applicants (on the hush). Other private schools are the same.
