Corps Hassia-Gießen to Mainz

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coat of arms from 1822

The Corps Hassia-Gießen zu Mainz is a student association in the Kösener Seniors Convents Association (KSCV). The obligatory and colored corps brings together students and alumni of Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz and Justus Liebig University Gießen .

Color

The Giessen Hessians - like the Hessen Corps in Göttingen, Heidelberg and Marburg - initially wore the colors black-green-red, led in 1821/22 (after the merger with the Corps Franconia Gießen) temporarily black-white-red and in 1833 took the tricolor green -white-red on. When it was re-established in 1840, it initially also ran black-white-red, but soon returned to green-white-red. Black-white-red was taken over by the Corps Marcomannia Giessen. When this merged with Hassia in 1843, the black, white and red ribbon with golden percussion finally became the colors of Hesse. A white cap is also worn. The fox ribbon is black-white-black, also with golden percussion.

The motto of the corps is one for all, all for one! The emblem is Gladius ultor noster!

history

Hassia was founded on August 3, 1815 by students at the University of Gießen as a corps in the Gießen Seniors' Convent and in the following years was affected by the clashes between the corps and the fraternity movement of the Giessen blacks . At the Wartburg Festival in 1817, Hassia was represented by her then senior August Götze . In 1818 the Corps Hassia and Constantia merged to form the "Allgemeine Burschenschaft Germania", which had to be dissolved a year later in the wake of the Karlsbad resolutions . In 1820 Hassia was reconstituted with its old colors. In 1836 the corps was dissolved in the course of investigations by the Giessen University Court against the forbidden connections and re-established on August 9, 1840. In 1843 it merged with the Corps Marcomannia, founded on March 4, 1842 by the former Gießen Rhenanen and Teutonen. In August 1846 the Corps participated in the move of the Giessen student body to the Staufenberg.

In 1892 the Corps was able to inaugurate its house at Hessenstrasse 3, on the so-called Food Mountain, for the 50th Foundation Festival. It was the first corporation in Giessen. On the same occasion the street was officially called Hessenstrasse . The Corps caused a particular stir in public when Otto Klewitz from Hesse fell victim to a pistol duel on September 9, 1897 . After a corresponding application had failed in the 1890s, the Kösener Congress in 1926 recognized the year 1815 as the official foundation date. In October 1935, given the political situation, Hassia declared the suspension. From 1938 onwards, the old gentlemen partially supported Hilrich van Geön's comradeship , which ceased operations when the war broke out.

In the post-war period in Germany , the reconstruction of the University of Giessen made slow progress. With only a few faculties, it offered no perspective. Therefore, on August 20, 1949, the old gentlemen's convention decided to reconstitute the newly opened Johannes Gutenberg University in Mainz . It took place on November 5, 1949. In January 1950, Hassia was one of the 22 corps that formed the community of interests . On May 19, 1951 Hassia participated in the reconstitution of the KSCV. With the Corps Borussia Greifswald and the Corps Borussia Halle , Hassia formed the “ blackest SC ” of the KSCV for four decades . The Gießen corp house in Hessenstrasse was sold in 1953 to the Corps Teutonia Gießen , which has been based there ever since. Hassia currently has around 200 members. As in 1868 and 1906 for Gießen, the Corps also appointed the chairman of the oKC for Mainz in 1955.
