Nevertheless, colleagues and students showed him unreserved respect and trust. For the academic year 1930/31 - shortly before his death - the faculty elected him dean . Gerhard Theissing was his only habilitation candidate in Bonn . Grünberg died in office at the age of 57. He was temporarily followed by M. Thielemann, then in 1934 Theodor Nühsmann (1885–1962).
