Karyn Pugliese is making the best of the interruption to her
Nieman year…as of March 23, 2020…
“It is not so bad here”
she says.
“Harvard did put
classes online and Nieman foundation is doing their best.
The Nieman crowd in
the meantime is all working together to make the year as good as it can be.
We are making the most
of the year together while still following social distancing rules.
Some of it is actually
pretty great.
I said it felt like we
were in a Zombie apocalypse movie.
Maybe that’s why
someone suggested visiting historic cemetery together.
Odd thing to do, but
it is quite beautiful there. It was a small group of 5 and we stayed six feet
apart.
Other ‘socially distant
events’ included an online Bday party.
We have online happy
hours every day at 5 pm.”
