What stays with you after a semester ends?🤔

Beyond seminars and assignments, a semester at Bard College Berlin is remembered by what students build and the moments they share with one another: from a simple conversation after class to an open mic evening with a band.

As classes come to an end, we want to congratulate all students on everything they have learned, organized, questioned, created, and contributed to campus life this semester. The curiosity, care, and energy behind these experiences are an essential part of what makes the BCB community what it is.

Wishing everyone a restful summer and good luck with finals 🌿✨

“National Internationalism? Nation, Race, and Class in the Soviet Sphere” examined the contradictions of communist internationalism across the USSR and Eastern Europe, focusing on the tensions between ideology and political reality.

Through panels on nationalism, anti-colonialism, race, language, and memory politics, the conference explored how Soviet and socialist regimes claimed to transcend nationalism while often relying on national identities and loyalties to maintain power. Discussions ranged from the Jewish question and foreign student life in Moscow to postwar Poland, Soviet Ukraine, Yugoslavia, and Central Asia.

Organized in cooperation with Bundesstiftung zur Aufarbeitung der SED-Diktatur and Smolny Beyond Borders, the event concluded with an evening conversation at Metis Books and Café featuring Khue Pham and Berit Ebert.
