Back then Anastasiya was not yet a studentat the university, but she has clear memoriesabout the uproar that took place when thestudents and lecturers were denied access totheir university premises. They took to the streetsin order to protest and some were, asa result, forced to leave the country. The powerand will of the students impressed her, andin 2005 she enrolled for EHU - in exile.Anastasiya is a tough young woman, who wants tomake a difference. She is a student in exile at the EuropeanHumanities University (EHU) in Vilnius, Lithuania.“I am completely different than from when I enteredEHU,” says the determined and ambitious 21 year-old,now halfway through the third year of her bachelor inEuropean and International Law.She radiates self-confidence and single-mindedness,clearly thinks for herself and keeps up-to-datewith current affairs. According to Anastasiya, however,thinking for yourself, having your own opinions and expressingthem is far from the norm for the majority ofher fellow Belarusians. “It is very important for Belarusiansto think freely,” she says, and goes on to explainthat this was not what she learned at the state universityin Minsk, where she studied for a year before startingat EHU in Vilnius in 2005.43
