Andrea Scallon, a 2022 Corbett Virtual Exchange Scholar and fourth-year student in International Studies and Global Health, was recognized as one of the Husky 100 — a group of students from the three UW campuses who embody the Husky experience and demonstrate making the most of their time at UW.

Border communities have always fascinated me. It’s absurd yet entirely normal that people lead vastly different lives depending on which side of an arbitrary line they find themselves on.

Going on an exchange to gain different perspectives and form new friendships has been my dream ever since I was a high school senior. Yet with a full course load, extracurricular activities, and my hesitation of stepping out of my comfort zone, I was not able to do so before the COVID-19 pandemic hit. Knowing

When I first applied to the Corbett Virtual Exchange I really had no idea what an amazing experience I was opening myself up to. All that I knew was that I needed a reason to feel excited when opening up my computer (which had become quite a stressful task as classes were moved online). I

It goes without saying that this is a strange year to be a Corbett scholar. Amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, I’ve often felt that my world has become ‘smaller’, with nearly every area of my life being conducted from my bedroom desk.
