The Corvina zu Einsiedeln grammar school association (GV Corvina) is a Christian school association founded in 1848 and a section of the Swiss Student Association (Schw. StV). This makes it one of the oldest connections in the association, which was founded in 1841.

The goals of the association can be found in the central statutes of the entire association: “The association cultivates friendship among its members. Building on the foundations of Christianity, he contributes to shaping the state and society, knowing about his own history and taking responsibility for the legacy of the Catholic Church. "

history

Founding phase (1842-1860)

Since 1825 the Einsiedeln Abbey School has gained in importance and reputation. When the Schw. StV was founded in 1841, it was not yet represented, but two colleges took part in its 2nd general assembly . One of them then founded the “cultural association” based on the example of the academies at Jesuit schools , which was soon recognized and confirmed as an academy.

Two externals strove to actually found a section. In the boarding school it was not considered necessary to set up a section. In addition, the internal was prohibited from communicating with the external. Nevertheless, Johann J. Krieger slowly gained supporters for the idea within the academy.

In 1848 the day school founded a section with the consent of the authorities . The first free sheet appeared in 1850: Litterarium . But difficulties arose as early as 1851 because the internal members founded their own section, which provoked a certain rivalry . Finally the two sections merged.

In 1858 an insignificant matter, an article in the Waldröschen section sheet, led to differences with the school administration. As a result, all communication between internal and external parties was prohibited. The professors' conference condemned the section and described it as useless and disruptive.

1859 was the annual report of the seminary "is any club that is not guided by teachers and educators, not good." After some connecting members during a public academy session in Willerzell had visited the inn, even the abolition of the compound was required. In two conferences, Father Gall Morel defended the StV. Several professors, however, accuse the association of lacking a basic religious attitude. The result: The old state of limited club activity remains. In the monthly roses, editor Suppiger polemicized more and more energetically against this behavior of the school management. The gap widened so that Father Gall Morel, despite his sympathy for the StV, was finally forced to abolish the section (October 16, 1860).

New struggle and second suspension (1860–1876)

Secret meetings of the members took place, followed by a secret foundation in the day school in 1865. In 1869 the members received permission from the Prefect and Father Gall Morel to found a new section. The next day, however, it is canceled again by the professors' conference. Meetings are still permitted to a certain extent, but the movement finds a strong opponent in Father Benno Kühne.

In 1872 Father Gall Morel dies and Father Benno Kühne becomes rector. He declares a foundation possible if the Central Committee (CC) guarantees that the StV is completely Catholic. The CC then again sets out the purpose and ideal of the StV. In 1874 the section is finally re-established, but without being granted any freedoms for association purposes. The restrictions are strict: badges are not allowed, a professor must be present at all meetings.

In 1875, the abbot rejected another request from the association for more freedom. He even states that the association was established without his consent and therefore rejects any request from the members. Meanwhile, with the support of the CC, the secret section flourishes in the day school. After these activities were discovered, the StV was again banned from the collegiate school on April 2, 1876.

Blossoming and recognition of the association (1876–1918)

After this second repeal in 1876, the number of members of the section fluctuated between five and fifteen external and internal members. Thanks to the strict Catholic direction of the StV, the rector is finally ready to negotiate. On the part of the StV, Augustin, an old settler, leads the negotiations. In 1890 they are provisionally concluded with the "Wilerm contract".

The main results were:

  1. The collegiate school takes a benevolent attitude towards the StV.
  2. The members at the school can fulfill their duties towards the whole association (GV, "monthly roses", association fees etc.). Entry into the StV is permitted from 5th grade onwards.
  3. The establishment of an actual section is refrained from, but the members are allowed to meet on special occasions. A chairman is elected ad hoc each time.
  4. If the number of members exceeds 17, a so-called competition work must be submitted to the CC.
  5. A social gathering is permitted at the end of the year.
  6. At the GV, the members appear as a section. The contract is approved by the CC and confirmed at the general meeting in Wil. The present Rector sums up the solution in the sentence: "The Einsiedler Section is in potentia throughout the year and goes into actu at the GV".

In 1894 a president and an actuary were elected for the first time, and a Fuxmajor (FM) also appeared. In 1895 the association already had 40 members. The first flag was acquired with a number of difficulties and was consecrated at the GV in Altdorf in 1896. At the same time, at the suggestion of Father Albert Kuhn, the association was given the name "Corvina". From 1899 onwards there was a lively club life. But with the reference to the Wiler contract, the rector P. Benno Kühne does not grant the aspiring Corvina any greater freedom. In 1902/03 Helbling's first Corviner story was created (from the company's foundation to 1876).

From 1907 the Corvina is recognized by the collegiate school as a section of the StV and a new contract replaces the "Wilervertag".

Secure existence (1918–1937)

1918 Foundation of the Altcorvina by Dr. Outry with the aim of supporting Aktivitas and balancing the differences between high school students and academics. At the founding meeting in Friborg, Dr. Outry President, Dr. Romuald Banz (1866–1951) Honorary President and the association chooses the motto: “Deo puer, mundo vir” . In 1926 Corvina received a new flag, which was consecrated by Abbot Ignatius.

For the first time, the senior citizens of Central Switzerland's high school connections meet in the second semester of 1926/27 for a senior citizens' conference in Lucerne. The aim is to promote the common interests of the high school connections and closer cooperation.

In 1929, the Corvina founded the “Cercle français” under its protectorate for the collegiate students from western Switzerland. In the association year 1929/30, the Corvina received the presidium in the Konvenist, "Meeting of the Central Swiss High School Associations". In 1930 the Corvina took over the management of the Vincent students in the monastery. According to the statutes of 1932, they are under the direction of the Vinzenzverein Einsiedeln. The vice-president of this association is always a student and as such is the direct leader of the Vincentian students.

In the association year 1934/35, the section inaugurates the regular bar in the Hotel Storchen.

In the 1930s, internal disputes often paralyzed the club's operations and the supportive work. To avoid future friction, the following ordinances are issued: Disputes should not be settled before the BC, but before the committee; the senior has the right to dissolve a BC if serious disagreements break out and the duty to seek advice from the AH committee.

The Corvina in the war years (1939–1945)

At the 90th anniversary summer of 1938, the old gentlemen's president remembered a second anniversary in his speech: 20 years of Altcorvina. The statutes, history of the association and the custom book are revised and the statutes are issued with the comment. In part, the war has had a noticeable effect on club life. Political training and social work are in the foreground.

After the war in 1945/46, the Corvina fell into an internal crisis. The Fuxen stanza "Corviner Füxe" dates from this time. From August 9 to 11, 1947, the general assembly of the Swiss StV (CP Bernet) takes place in Einsiedeln for the first time.

On May 9 and 10, 1948, the Corvina celebrated its centenary with the Turicia Zurich sponsorship section and the consecration of a new banner . There is a torchlight procession in the village and a celebratory meeting in the prince's hall with high secular and spiritual representatives.

After the Second World War (1948–1964)

In 1949 the Corvina became the sponsorship section of the Austrian MKV association Cimbria in Kufstein and provided it with help and support. Relations with the Cimbria are broken off in 1951, however, because they seem to have no interest in a financially weak high school connection.

In 1953 a commentary and a revision of the statutes was necessary. The professors' conference allows the compulsory color-wearing on Sundays. So far the Corvina was probably the only connection that only carried the colors to a limited extent. The closing ceremony is introduced as a highly official event, which gradually becomes a farewell party for the Corviner high school graduates. In 1957 study circles are founded.

In 1960 the club magazine "Corviner" received the rating from the CP as a "really good newsletter that could certainly serve as a model" . In 1961 the Corvina votes against Suitia's proposal that the high school connections should merge. The main reasons for rejection are:

  1. Risk of isolation from the university connections
  2. Additional burden on the individual and the association fund
  3. There are no essential tasks that need to be solved together.

In 1962 the monthly liaison fair is introduced.

Recent time

In spring 1966, a new official event, a Couleurball during the Easter holidays, was added to the club's life.

In 1999 the first woman was accepted into the Corvina General Assembly.

membership

For historical reasons, only Catholic boys were allowed to be admitted in the beginning. Over the years freedom of religion was first introduced, which now allowed all boys baptized as Christian to become members. Girls have also been accepted since 1998. All students of the last three years at the Einsiedeln Abbey School are allowed to participate. Anyone who is a member of Corvina is automatically accepted into the umbrella organization, the Swiss Student Association.
