Seems like the easy fix here is move all evaluation in-class. Are schools really that reliant on internet/computer based assignments? Actually, this could be a great opportunity to dial back unnecessary and wasteful edu-tech creep.

That's a non-starter for most schools.

There are more students than ever, and lots of schools now offer remote programs, or just remote options in general for students, to accommodate for the increased demand.

There's little political will to revert to the old ways, as it would drive up the costs. You need more space and you need more workers.
