Has anyone thought about prepaying future tuition?

We prepaid for our daughter, a recent graduate at WUSTL, with good results. We have chosen to go this route again with our son, who has just started his first year at UChicago. Our motivation is partially financial, insofar as we are once again betting that tuition increases over the four years are likely to outstrip potential gains from investing the money, but also psychological. Not having to hold our breaths each time the announcement is made of upcoming tuition hikes is worth more in peace of mind than a dollar amount to us.
