Life

Schaeuble finished his school career at the humanistic high school in Rastatt . He then studied medicine and anthropology at the Universities of Heidelberg , Zurich , Kiel , Freiburg and Berlin . He finally switched to his teacher Eugen Fischer at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Anthropology, Human Heredity and Eugenics , where he prepared his dissertation as a doctoral student after graduating in 1931/32 . In 1933 he was awarded a Dr. phil. PhD and continued to work at the KWI for Anthropology as an assistant. From November 1934 to September 1935 he spent several months researching in the Araukan area in southern Chile, where he carried out anthropological studies on residents. In 1936 he became an assistant at the Wehrmacht's psychotechnical laboratory .

In the course of the transfer of power to the National Socialists , he joined the SA in 1933 and became a lecturer in racial theory in this Nazi organization. The Nazi Party , he joined the 1937th Schaeuble had been married to Ursula, née May, since 1937. The couple had two daughters and a son.

At the beginning of April 1937, Schaeuble moved to the University of Freiburg im Breisgau, where he worked as an assistant at the anatomical institute and lectured in anthropology. In 1939 he completed his habilitation at the University of Freiburg im Breisgau and worked there from 1940 as a lecturer and head of the genetic and racial biology department of the anatomical institute. Furthermore, he was promoted to Dr. med. PhD. In December 1942 he became an employee of the Forschungsgemeinschaft Deutsches Ahnenerbe e. V. He also acted as a state-approved breed expert. The appointment of Schaeuble to the chair for racial hygiene at the Albertus University in Königsberg, requested by Karl Brandt in 1944 , did not materialize.

After the end of the war, Schaeuble retired from university service at the end of September 1945 on the instructions of the French military administration because of his membership in Nazi organizations. Against his under the denazification made classification as a hanger for a denazification process objection was raised by the military government that Spruchkammer held their judgment still upright.
