Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, the first 18 months of the COVID-19 pandemic are revisited from the perspective of Indiana University’s Europe Gateway Director in Berlin, Germany. She describes how, within a matter of days in March 2020, the global mobility on which the Gateway’s programs depended came to a screeching halt and, in the bigger picture, the entire international education industry unraveled. Yet the author and her colleagues made their proverbial lemonade from the lemons they were given, developing innovative program ideas that addressed needs the pandemic brought upon international education only weeks into the initial shock and sudden new normal of remote work and virtual interaction. Online-only programming brought challenges, but great benefits as well. The crisis affected internal and external university partnerships in both nuanced and sea-change ways, and with potentially lasting impact. A glimpse at the post-pandemic horizon has come into view at the Indiana University Europe Gateway—and beyond.
