Who are we?
We, the giraffe is an independent university student group. The
means that we not tied to any one party from the Diet. We are
not subject to ideological constraints, but we are pragmatic and for
the interests of students. We do not lose in ideological
small wars, but to keep track of-the vision of a giraffe.
Right now can afford the student council no ideological struggles
grave. We need an active, pragmatic and student representation
none that repeated blunt always the old slogans.
Since 1976, the giraffes are committed to competent and independent in
student parliament, the student bodies, the faculty councils and in the Senate.
We continue to meaningful student representation can provide, we ask you to
your voice!
regardless Why?
The interests of students in higher education policy, unfortunately, often neglected.
The students are represented by groups that are interested in more rigid
ideologies, as the welfare of students. We giraffes do not represent the interests of a party
from the Romans or from parliament, but guarantee
an independent student representation. We are not a training ground for
the parliamentary parties. This distinguishes us from other higher education groups. The old
right / left - camp thinking is obsolete for us because it no single student
helps. We are concerned with improving the conditions for studying at our university. This
we are open and pragmatic. We solve problems through constructive cooperation and
not with the party membership.
What do we stand?
- Despite the foundation for transforming the university must "JWGU" continue their
educating the general public needs. Funding for the elites may not be
load for other students. The Goethe-University must continue the training of
"mass students" and encouraging the academic elite understood as
equivalent tasks. Only then can the elite promotion Impetus for
assume a positive development of the university.
- The program must remain affordable for every student. But instead to stir up fears of
introduction of tuition fees after the state election, the Student Council
develop new concepts, how it deals with tuition fees.
This is a constructive dialogue between the student council and the board of the University
necessary. Such talks had repeatedly denied the AStA simple.
- Student demonstrations have been peaceful. We do not allow
that a radical minority, the entire student body in a bad light
indented. If students only struck by the fact that they occupy highways
damage or buildings that would hinder the pursuit of student interests
.
- giraffes We are a group of students from various
fields: law, medicine, Sinology, Geography, Archaeology, Mathematics and Business Administration
. We are present on all campuses and therefore see immediately where it
for improvement. The improvement of study conditions
we want to achieve in a constructive dialogue. Therefore, we run for students
Parliament, student bodies, faculty councils and the Senate.
- We stand for honesty and transparency, for foresight and pragmatism.
We not only think of our next political fortune, but to a long-term
positive development of our university. We have reached the Department of Law
longer opening times of the library. Moreover
we helped keep the postal ballot available at our university.
choose giraffes Why?
Who elects the giraffe can only win. We want to avoid fees on a
constructive level and make us strong against the increase of student
contributions. We promote high school sports at our university. We are
for longer opening times of libraries and better equipment one. We guarantee
openness and transparency.
