Self-administration
Residents who volunteer to make life at Rosenbachweg better for everyone.
The self-administration (SV) is made up of residents who volunteer as tutors or committee members. Tutors receive an allowance of 10 € per month, and the semester is not counted towards their maximum period of residence.
Locked out? The mayors will unlock your room for 20 €, which goes to the SV cash box. If you can't reach either of them, the Studierendenwerk's emergency service helps at 0551-3935359 – but that costs 75–100 €.
Join us! If you would like to get involved, write to the 1st mayor or come to the next dormitory council meeting. New people with good ideas are always welcome – especially for offices that are currently vacant.
Details about the offices are laid down in the Rosenbachweg regulations (RBW-O) (German only).
Names and contact details of the office holders are only visible from the dorm network.
