Abstract

The impact of COVID-19 on higher education is not unlike changing circumstances globally. Universities and colleges have reorganized and retrenched services and academic programs, delayed school openings, closed facilities, and in particular emphasized technology in learning. Distance and hybrid learning modalities are on the rise and in many cases replacing face-to-face instruction as a safer alternative. In Korea, most of these changes have occurred within a framework of policy guidelines established by the government. This chapter sheds light on these changes, and importantly government strategies employed to deal with the impact of COVID, as an opportunity to investigate the higher education-government relationship, especially concerning the entrenched challenges faced by the private higher education sector. While Korea’s higher education system in general has benefited considerably under the government’s direction to manage COVID-related complications, the government’s rigid regulatory machinery restricts institutional autonomy in ways that make it difficult for periphery institutions, which are mostly private in status, to not only manage the pandemic effectively, but also remain financially viable in perpetuity. This chapter closes by recommending several policy directions with the aim of improving particularly the circumstances of private institutions.
