There is a substantial amount of inertia in the educational system: knowhow, routines, supporting systems, teachers and professors that have been tailormade for the brick-and-mortar type of educational systems that have been the norm since the beginning of the last century, or earlier.

This inertia naturally causes some friction against the trajectory towards remote education- but not yet to the level of putting up a fight. But expect this conflict deepen just as it has with news media, as the financial foundation of traditional educational systems slowly erodes in favor of the (coming) much more flexible and cheaper online systems.
