Mündener Convent of Forest Academic Associations

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Mündener Convent forestry academic fraternities consists of five originally in Hannoversch Munden resulting compounds due to the relocation of the since 1970 Georgia Augusta associated Forestry Faculty of Göttingen have now all based in this university town.

History of the Mündener Senioren-Convent (MC)

The Mündener Senioren-Convent (MC) was founded at the end of the winter semester 1886/1887 by ATG, die Tanne, Freia and FAG Hubertia, which later merged with Freia. Since the founding of the Academic Military Police Society in 1919, this society has also belonged to the MC. Only after the Second World War was the Rheno-Guestfalia included in the re-establishment of the MC.

The following connections belong to the MC today (according to the foundation date):

  • Andree'sche Tischgesellschaft (ATG) Münden zu Göttingen (1868),
  • Mündener Gesellschaft (MG) Tanne (1871),
  • Forest Academic Society (FAG) Freia (1879),
  • Academic Association Feldjäger (AVF) (1919) and
  • FAV Rheno-Guestfalia (Hann. Münden) zu Göttingen in the CV (1927)

Andree'sche Tischgesellschaft, Fir and Freia

Former fraternity house of the Andree'schen Tischgesellschaft
Former liaison house of the Mündener Gesellschaft Tanne

The three connections ATG, Tanne and Freia, which were established during the Kingdom of Prussia , still do not wear any colors ( color ), because at that time forest students were already members of the Prussian state forest administration and in this function, among other things, wore the Prussian forest uniform and the academy director as a superior were subject. The students were not allowed to fencing of designated gauges or to wear paint . Since the three old Mündener forest connections were nevertheless satisfactory , they fought as gunsmen in the corps of the Göttingen Senior Citizens' Convention , which they also partly crammed in. From this circumstance, friendship relationships that still exist today have developed :

Some of these friendships go back to the time of the Franco-Prussian War .

The name of the Andree'schen Tischgesellschaft goes back to the Andreesberg (also Questenberg) above the Werra as the place of foundation. On the mountain there used to be the excursion restaurant and hotel Andree's Berggarten , which was frequented by students and citizens alike.

Academic Association of Feldjäger

The "Academic Association of Feldjäger" was founded as the traditional successor to the Royal Prussian Riding Field Police Corps , or "RFC" for short, which was established in 1740 and dissolved in 1919 as part of the implementation of the provisions of the Versailles Treaty . The term "Feldjäger" in the name of the RFC had nothing to do with the military police, but referred to an elite military unit of the cavalry in Prussia, which was mostly recruited from foresters. The Feldjäger Corps on horseback was set up in the Prussian army primarily for courier and reconnaissance services and had no specific police tasks.

Even when it was in existence, the service at the RFC included, in addition to the military component, a degree in forestry. This academic tradition of the "RFC" was continued after the dissolution of the active corps in 1919 by the so-called "Academic Military Police Associations". The first "Akademischen Feldjägergesellschaft" (AFG) was founded in Eberswalde in 1919 , which was then continued in Hannoversch Münden and since 1970 in Göttingen. One of the founding members in Eberswalde in 1919 was, among others, the later chief forester Friedrich Samwer (ATG). As the traditional successor to the Royal Prussian Riding Police Corps (RFC) and the “Academic Military Police Associations” (AFG), the Academic Association of Military Police (AVF) in Göttingen and its sponsoring association, the Feldjäger Association, still exist today.

Rheno-Guestfalia

As a member of the traditionally colored Cartel Association of Catholic Student Associations (CV), Rheno-Guestfalia is an exception.

Andree'sche Tischgesellschaft, Corps Saxonia

Cheruscia / ATG

The Andree'sche Tischgesellschaft decided to join the KSCV as a corps in 1927 , after the academy had been converted into a forestry college with a rectorate constitution and the right to award doctorates in 1923, and this was accompanied by a certain liberalization of student life. The ATG had renonciert for two semesters under the name Cheruscia at the Senior Convent in Giessen and defeated 26 games. At the Kösener Congress in 1930, although the renunciation had been unanimously approved in the previous year, her application for membership was rejected after a seven-hour debate with 17:13 SC votes. In order to avoid a great embarrassment, the (immediate) connection to a suspended corps appeared to be the only way out. Given the high reputation of the ATG, a merger was also a surprising and highly welcome opportunity for reconstitution for the Pépinière-Corps Saxonia, which was suspended in Hamburg . On July 25, 1930, the Cheruscia (ATG) declared itself a free corps and suspended. On the same evening, the Saxonia FCC accepted the 15 active members of the suspended Cheruscia as foxes and awarded five old men of the ATG, who were also students of the Kösener Corps, the Sachsenband. In Hann. The first Kösener Corps was established in Münden .
