Miltenberger Ring
The Miltenberger Ring (MR) is an umbrella organization of student corporations. The purpose of the association is to promote contact among its members, cross-location cooperation and the maintenance of black color students . The members of the MR are non- color-bearing , non- denominational, politically independent, only accept male students and do not have any mandatory scales . The association's meeting place is Miltenberg am Main. The chairmanship ("suburb") of the MR changes annually among the member corporations, determined by the date of establishment.
history
The Miltenberger Ring was founded in 1919 as an association of black (i.e. not wearing any colors) student associations. The predecessor was the Association of Black Striking Associations (VssV) founded by the Heidelberg associations Leonensia , Rupertia and Karlsruhensia. What all members had in common was the principle of unconditional satisfaction , the willingness to form and maintain lifelong friendships, as well as even then the "principle of tolerance", which allowed the individual to have extensive freedom with regard to denomination, (party) political direction, personal view of life and Citizenship includes. There was a claim in the member associations to educate their members "to become responsible and responsible citizens".
The medieval town of Miltenberg am Main was chosen as the venue for the association because it represented the approximate regional center of the association's members at the time. The association song of the time was "Drei Klänge sind's". Until the forced dissolution of the association in 1935, a total of 11 black associations joined the MR. The Miltenberger Ring had around 1,500 members in 1929.

time of the nationalsocialism
The State Secretary and head of the Reich Chancellery Hans Heinrich Lammers , member of Wratislavia Breslau and leader of the Miltenberger Ring, ordered the conversion of the MR connections into corps and the introduction of the determination censorship on September 21, 1933 . The next day, on September 22nd, 1933, National Socialism triumphed over the Corps by founding the National Socialist Community of Corps Student Associations (NSGCV) from KSCV , WSC , RSC , Naumburger SC and the Miltenberger Ring in Berlin . His leader was Lammers, who had made himself a corps student with the corps conversion of the MR connections and became a member of the Corps Cheruscia Berlin in the WSC.
In 1933 the association gazette - the Miltenberger Ring-Zeitung - published by the respective presiding association was banned.
On January 12, 1935, Lammers initiated the “Community of Student Associations” (GStV). Like the German Burschenschaft on August 21, 1935, the HKSCV was excluded from the Community of Student Associations (GStV) by Lammers on September 5, 1935, “because its leader Max Blunck refused to voluntarily allow the complete implementation of the Aryan principle that I wanted execute. ”On September 6, 1935, Lammers dissolved the Association of Student Associations (GStV) - and thus lost an ungrateful position. On September 25, 1935, the SA chief Viktor Lutze and Albert Derichsweiler ruled that SA membership and affiliation to a corporation were incompatible.
New beginning
When it was reconstituted in 1953, the MR faced a much smaller number of active alliances with fewer members. The principle of unconditional satisfaction was abandoned as out of date in favor of optional hitting. In 1973, the MR finally merged with the "Wernigeroder Black Association" (WSV), which mostly consisted of young associations represented at technical universities, to form the "Miltenberg-Wernigeroder Ring" (MWR). Initially there were 25 connections, but from 1976 a wave of resignation began, which was caused by too different views on the tradition of corporate students and the course of the association, such as the membership of the new association in the Convent of German Academic Associations CDA and in the Convent of German Corporations Associations CDK - the MR previously belonged to both WSV to neither of the two working groups. Between 1976 and 1994 twelve connections left the MWR. Any measures to counteract this failed or did not have the hoped-for effect. The decline could not be stopped, so that finally a large part of the old MR frets left the MWR by 1996. The re-establishment of the MR in its original form took place in 1995 in the "Riesen" inn in Miltenberg.
The MR currently has four black associations and an old man association; " The thoughts are free " was chosen as the new association song. The annual association meeting in Miltenberg on the first weekend after Pentecost and the winter conference at the current suburb are still an integral part of the association's life. In 2009 the association left the Convent of German Academic Associations (CDA).
