Lawsuits have been filled already regarding tuition.
Additionally, as was mentioned above, if students want a different rate for taking online courses then they should be aware that most schools charge MORE for online courses.

I would never be comfortable paying the same (or more) for a full year on online courses from a four-year university, especially without the option to be in-person. As a recent graduate with some experience in online courses, I would strongly recommend anyone faced with the reality of a full year of online school do one of three things:
1. Take the duration of the online-only period off and work/pursue a hobby/volunteer/build a resume/intern/etc.
2. Transfer to a community college and take the same courses at a steep discount and transfer them back in.
3. Go to school half time, spend the other half doing #1.
I say half time because I believe FAFSA requires 50% enrollment for financial aid. Scholarships are obviously a bit different but I got permission to use one for part time enrollment once. Any student pursuing #1 or #3 should also be working on CLEP tests. No reason not to take that route.

The current situation in which college administrators find themselves is a real life graduate level course in strategic planning and decision making. Almost every direction puts them in an over the cliff position. Professors in these areas can sit back, observe and their next case study text book nearly writes itself. What a time to be alive.

I am not surprised by the lawsuits. And the schools say they are hurting for monies.

Colorado College has had 2 dorms quarantined already with the virus. One of the worst in the state if not the worst for colleges. Too bad, I like CC hockey.

I saw that some Big 10 Parents are upset with the decision of no football this fall for their kids.

I wouldn't call college administrators naive. They know and understand this more than anyone-- including most parents. I don't envy them at all considering the current situation.
