history

The history of the Corps Normannia is closely interwoven with that of the University of Veterinary Medicine Hannover. The Corps Normannia was founded as Landsmannschaft Teutonia on March 15, 1859 at what was then the Royal Thierarzney School in Hanover . After the forced merger with another country team, the name Normannia was adopted in 1864 with the colors blue-white-green.

In 1883, Normannia was one of the founders of the Rudolstädter Seniorenconvent (RSC) with other compatriots at the veterinary faculties , whose members adopted corp principles in 1902. The RSC then developed into the third umbrella organization of the Corps alongside the WSC and KSCV . After internal disputes, Normannia left the RSC in 1930 and two years later became a country team again within the German country team . During the time of the National Socialist dictatorship , Normannia existed unchanged until the forced dissolution in 1936, then as a comradeship ("Bischofsholer Damm", " Schill ") within the NSDStB at the veterinary college.

After the war, Normannia was initially continued in secret, but in 1946 it was approved by the British military government under the name "Libertas Academica" as the first student association of the veterinary college. Officially, the name Normannia has been used again since 1950. On October 4, 1952, Normannia was accepted as an active corps in the WSC.

Corp houses

On June 12, 1914, the inauguration of the first own corp house took place at Bischofsholer Damm 2, directly opposite the veterinary college. The head of the building commission was Bernard Malkmus . During the Second World War, the corp house was completely destroyed by bombs in 1943. In the years 1948–1956, a small emergency home, built despite defects in the garden of the former corp house, served the active as an event location and accommodation. After a property swap agreement with the city of Hanover, construction of the new corp house on the property on Plathnerstrasse, again in the immediate vicinity of the university, began in August 1955. The new corp house, inaugurated in the summer semester of 1956, remains the undisputed center of corps life to this day.

Members

As a student union with a strong focus on the Veterinary University, the Corps Normannia is today the only corps in which one can speak of a strong and historically continuous faculty orientation. For example, the proportion of veterinarians in the 180-strong old rulers reaches 90%, of currently just over 20 active members, half are studying veterinary medicine, which is particularly noteworthy with a proportion of female veterinary medicine students of around 90%. Members of the Corps Normannia are therefore represented in all areas of veterinary medicine, such as practice, research, food technology and monitoring, but also in the veterinary service of the Bundeswehr . Several Normans are currently ordained as professors at home and abroad. In addition to veterinarians, Normannia has also repeatedly accepted students from the University of Hanover and, in recent years, increasingly from the Hannover Medical School (MHH). With the aforementioned number of members, Normannia is one of the corps with the largest number of members in the WSC. Particularly noteworthy among the members of the corps are:

"Benthe Case"

The Corps Normannia was involved in the so-called "Benthe case", which in 1951 caused a nationwide sensation. In the summer of 1951, what was then an illegal canteen day was discovered by the Hanoverian police. The news magazine Der Spiegel thereupon published a report entitled Prepare everything , using the example of Normannia to describe the rebuilt corporations. The incident was also recorded and commented on by the weekly newspaper Die Zeit . In the dissertation “The Veterinary University in the Post-War Period” (2002), Normannia is presented with this process as an example of the reviving student associations at the TiHo. The importance of the process is particularly evident against the background of the Göttingen scaling process that took place a little later .

Green cartel

The Corps Normannia belongs to the Green Cartel within the WSC. This amalgamation has existed with the Corps Franconia Berlin zu Kaiserslautern since 1872, with the Corps Suevo-Guestphalia Munich (then Suevia Stuttgart) since 1878. The Corps in the Green Cartel see themselves as "one corps at three university locations".
