What is
like finishing up your degree and starting your new job, unable to see anyone
outside your own flat? Amanda Scully, 4th year International
Relations undergraduate and forthcoming Vice-President Communities with the
Student Association, tells us about managing assessment changes and the library
closure, ending her internship, and getting ready to start her busy Sabbatical
Officer year, all from the confines of her small flat in Edinburgh. She also
talks about her decision to remain in Edinburgh when many of her classmates
were returning home, and what it is like to hear news of the lockdown from her
home city of New York. She reflects on how connection with family can grow
stronger despite, or because of social distancing, and the delights of
transatlantic online family workouts!
