Right before the beginning of the fall semester, Consul General Mika Koskinen had a chat with Heli Sirviö, lecturer in Finnish and Swedish Culture and Language at Columbia University. COVID-19 nearly caused the Finnish Studies program to shut down, but due to Heli’s persistent efforts, it’s still up and running. Remotely, for now.
