Excerpt:
"In what we're sure is simply totally a coincidence and nothing more, the grades of attractive female students examined by a new study fell after classes were moved online during the Covid lockdowns.
A brand new research paper called "Student beauty and grades under in-person and remote teaching" found that "when education is in-person, attractive students receive higher grades".
The same study found that "grades of attractive females declined when teaching was conducted remotely" and that "the effect is only present in courses with significant teacher–student interaction."
The paper had a jury of 74 people rate the looks of 307 engineering students on a scale of 1 to 10. From there, it looked at the data behind the students' grades prior to, and during, pandemic lockdowns, at the Industrial Engineering Program at Lund University.
"This paper has shown that students’ facial attractiveness impact academic outcomes when classes are held in-person," the study concluded."

In looking at the study I could not find if ugly women had better grades when online or did their grades suffer also.
Prior to this report , many reports have suggested online learning has hurt education across the board.
