| The pandemic lockdowns may seem like a distant past, but their consequences are still being felt. For example, UU students going abroad on an Erasmus grant are getting less money this academic year because the funds were calculated based on the Covid years. Meanwhile, UU employees are deeply concerned about the budget cuts affecting their departments and jobs, and the Skills Lab is fighting for its survival until the end. But it's not all doom and gloom: the Neighbours' Festival at Utrecht Science Park brought residents closer and made the campus livelier than usual on a weekend. |
