Corona changes Interviews with BTU employees and students

Hard to believe: Two years of the Corona pandemic are behind us. In March 2020, the entire BTU operation had to be switched to "online" within a few weeks. But what did that mean in concrete terms: for the students, the employees on campus? In a multi-part series, we let university employees talk about the changes at work or in their studies.
