A Harvard University student filed a class-action lawsuit on behalf of a much larger group of peers, seeking $5 million in repayment for tuition and fees for services that the university has not provided amid the CCP virus pandemic.
The action, filed on May 20 in a Boston federal court, makes Harvard the latest Ivy League member that is being sued over tuition refunds in the wake of campus closures and the shift to online education. Over the past month, students have brought similar lawsuits against Brown, Columbia, and Cornell Universities.
