Germanic & Slavic Studies' M.A. alum Robert Klosinski has been profiled in a feature story about teaching his Penn State classes remotely from Germany, after Covid-19 travel restrictions prevented his return to the U.S. as a non-citizen.

Robert was visiting his parents over spring break and got stuck. He is now sheltering in place in Berßel, Germany, teaching with a five-hour time difference.

The feature also notes Robert's active research project and dissertation research at Penn State.
