All those outraged by this please note that professors are doing the same amount of work - possibly more - to accommodate online learning. Pushing for refunds will result in pay cuts for professors who are working hard to provide educational continuity.

we’re not asking for professors/TA’s wage cut however gyms, student centers, transportation, & other services that are included in tuition are not being provided. why should we continue paying? especially when high ed. admin are still making their $500,000+ salaries

You bring up an excellent point, they even charge us to park our cars in their parking lots. All of our tuition is not going to professor salaries.

Are you still being charged for that?

Yes, they have not taken that or reimbursed that, or any other line item out of my tuition.
