As someone who has taken large lecture classes both in person and online, there's really no difference. A seminar is one thing, but no one gets anything interactive out of a class in a 300+ person lecture hall. More students failed because they lowered the bar; I sure as hell won't fail a class I pay $2000 for but I might lose interest in one I paid $150 for. There's nothing wrong with a "low" pass rate in this case, it's just a different situation.
