(Reuters) - A Harvard Law School student has brought a proposed class action against the university over its decision to move in-person law courses online because of the coronavirus pandemic without reducing tuition. Plaintiff Abraham Barkhordar, a rising second-year law student, asked a federal court in Boston to order Harvard to partially reimburse him for the tuition and fees he paid in the spring of 2020, in a complaint filed Monday. The lawsuit alleges breach of contract, unjust enrichment and conversion, arguing that Harvard Law's online classes were less rigorous and of a lower quality than the in-person classes for which he agreed to pay a $65,875 annual tuition. Barkhordar, who is represented by lawyers from Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro and Burns Charest, also seeks reimbursement from Harvard for any future semesters in which he has to pay full tuition without access to in-person classes. Earlier this month, Harvard Law had told students that courses in the fall would be online only, without lowering tuition. Harvard University spokesman Jonathan Swain on Tuesday said the school does not comment on pending litigation. In March, the coronavirus led universities across the United States, including Harvard, to close their campuses in an effort to slow its spread. Since then, several top-ranked schools with high price tags, including Columbia University, Brown University and now Harvard, have been sued by students seeking refunds. Barkhordar in his complaint said Harvard has "significantly financially damaged" him and other students who "have lost - and will continue to lose - the benefit of the education and services they were promised without a corresponding reduction in tuition and fees."Harvard Law School student Abraham Barkhordar led a class action lawsuit Monday against Harvard asking for partial reimbursement of tuition for the online spring semester. Barkhordar a rising second-year student led a complaint in the US. District Court of Massachusetts alleging the school provided a \"subpar\" educational experience following its transition to remote instruction in March due to the coronavirus pandemic. The complaint demands the University proportionally refund tuition to all class members for the spring and for any future online academic terms damages, the suit argues, that exceed $5 million. The lawsuit claims the lack of in-person access to resources and a collaborative learning environment during the remote semester failed to meet the quality of education students were promised in exchange for their tuition and fees. \"While students enrolled and paid Defendant for a comprehensive academic experience, Defendant instead offered Plaintiff and the Class Members something far less: a limited online experience presented by Zoom, void of face- to-face faculty and peer interaction, separated from program resources, and barred from facilities vital to study,\" it reads. In an interview with The Crimson, Barkhordar attributed his decision to attend the Law School to his ability to interact with professors and students across campus and in class. \"A lot of law school revolves around a lively inclass debate whether it's a heated argument or funny banter,\" he said. \"It's just not the same over Zoom.\" The complaint also argues Barkhordar experienced a decrease in academic rigor and standards. The Law School shifted to a mandatory credit-fail grading system shortly after the transition to online learning.

The complaint also argues Barkhordar experienced a decrease in academic rigor and standards. The Law School shifted to a mandatory credit-fail grading system shortly after the transition to online learning. "Such decreased assignments and reduced expectations in turn have reduced and negated the educational experience for which Plaintiff paid Defendant," the complaint reads.
