Ever taken a lecture at 3am? This is going to put international students at a severe disadvantage.

One would kind of hope that universities by now have gotten past live lecture attendance being necessary for remote learning... Guess that's a bit optimistic though.

For reference, the University of Illinois CS department, which has a significant number of international students, is having synchronous online lectures for 95% of the courses offered this semester. If you were in India/China, you would be watching 3am lectures, taking exams in the middle of the night, etc.
