Attorneys for Pace University and a student who graduated from its Actors Studio Drama School argued before a three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on Thursday in a COVID-19 tuition refund case.

Goldberg Cohen co-founder Morris Cohen argued that the student, who was in the final year of his Master of Fine Arts program in spring 2020, paid for in-person classes and should have received them. Cohen noted that Pace charges “six times as much” for in-person classes as it does for online classes.
