Back Again - After 50 Years

After almost 50 years, once again together at the TU Braunschweig. And this is how it happened:

The older you get, the more difficult it becomes to find a common date and so we 8 former students from the "4th floor of the Lange Kamp hall of residence" decided to set a fixed date for our regular meetings.

The starting point for this was to be our old place of work, the place where a long friendship began, the University of Braunschweig. Contact was quickly established with the central alumni network, who were also prepared to give a guided tour of the campus on Saturday.

And then we were lucky:

The weather was perfect, Mrs Stelter surprised us with many unknown things, from "hidden places" to sensational views from the very top, brought everyone up to date. Many things remained as we remembered them, but of course other things have changed. For example, we missed some of the places that invited us to meet up regularly in the evenings and at night alongside our studies. But the Grotian still exists!

Our heartfelt thanks to Mrs Stelter!
