> There’s no reason to pay the sums the universities are charging considering you can get the same education from almost any university.

I think you’re arguing against something other than the Coronavirus and remote education situation at this point.



No I am not. Due the current circumstances, the universities are not able to provide the facilities and the networking capabilities to the students so they should not be required to pay the full amount.

Also, as the students are going to be home anyway, the differences between universities shrink. If the education is somewhat similar in a university A and university B, but university A is five times more expensive during the normal times, why should the students of university A pay five times as much as the students at the university B. They have lost the reason why they pay so much for it.
