Education is now online and they cannot access any university resources. Why should they pay the same price for a quarter of the value?

  So the value is not really about "education"?

    It's the opposite surely. Suppose you pay £8000 for a course of lectures, with materials and access to laboratories. Then the provider fire the lecturer, close the laboratories, ... surely you see there's an educational deficit then. It may be true you can pass an exam from the course texts and online materials that remain available, but the educational benefit would be exceedingly diminished.

    I definitely don't get the same learning outcomes without being in a classroom. Everything is harder. It's harder to ask questions and have in depth discussions. I struggle to pay attention. Lectures are less engaging. None of the campus facilities are available. A large % of my course fees go toward maintaining labs, student groups and sports. I can't touch any of those.
