PARIS, France—To take her final exam from Enerhodar, a city on the bank of the Dniepr river occupied by the Russian military since early March, Olga (not her real name) had to grab her laptop, walk through a wooden park and find a quiet spot on a nearby sandy beach— one of the city’s few remaining areas where locals could still get a signal. There, the 21 years-old student managed to connect to the university's online classroom and start taking the exam. “It was very difficult and I was constantly getting disconnected, but in the end it worked out and I got the highest grade,” she wrote to me on a secure messaging app.
