Flatulence university is more like it. Year after year they have a higher percentage of tuition than most, they have even had to get state approval because the percentage was so high. All the while they flaunt the special treatment the athletes get.

There was a very, very interesting (IMHO) segment with Scott Galloway on CNN (AC360) and his take on higher education moving forward after the Covid19 disruption. It showed up in my LinkedIn feed, also saw it on Twitter.
I'm not going to link it here, but a little google-fooing should bring it up for you. Scott is a prof. at NYU.
The cliff notes version is that mid-tier universities (of which I would put UO and OSU) are facing a serious financial reckoning.
If you are interested and can't find it, PM me and I'll try to find a link.

The above link is from a magazine article and touches on a lot of what he was explaining to AC. On that interview he talked a lot about tier 2 and tier 3 universities. I'm guessing OSU and UO are tier 2. Also guessing all the directional universities are tier 3. He says many tier 3's will close. |

I know that many are concerned online learning will displace actual classroom attendance and being on campus, leading to empty dorms, etc. From my child's experience, and many others I've talked to/heard about from their families, the COVID might eventually be the best thing that happens to maintain or actually increase campus attendance/in-person classes.
To the man/woman, all say online classes have been a poor substitute for the traditional college earning experience, especially in the upper levels, where classes are much smaller and there is the ability to have much more interaction with the professor.
Now, not saying that online classes don't work, for those who work full-time or for those who simply can't get to Corvallis (using OSU as an example) because of family/financial obligations, etc. But from those I've talked to who can be on campus attending classes in person, it's much better that the current alternative.
