I have 3 in person degrees and some of my classes were online during covid

Are you jealous that people got the same education in a better environment? That's the vibe I'm getting here

Better? Online among 5k others is better?

I found it much more convenient and comfortable to watch lectures on my own time in my office at home. Professors were always very responsive and helpful when I emailed them with questions and were available by zoom if I needed to meet. Not sure what the number of people matters, and a large part of the cost of college is maintenance of buildings. So yes, it actually IS better.
