    "Access"?
    Milton Friedman documented how most state-college students are from 
affluent families.  State colleges aren't mainly providing "access" to poor 
kids who'd never otherwise get to college, but instead subsidizing the 
education of the upper middle class kid whose parents could afford to pay 
more of the actual cost of his college education.
