Comment
Shouldn't that be merged with the Studentenverbindung article? -- till we &#9788; &#9789; | Talk 09:58, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)


 * I'd rather say no; Studentenverbindung is only an umbrella term, the differences between the diverse kinds are pretty significant. --Anarch 10:13, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)


 * Yes, but isn't one article about Studentenverbindungen including paragraphs about different kinds and their differences enough for an English language encyclopedia? -- till we &#9788; &#9789; | Talk 12:34, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)


 * I consider that inappropriate, esp. in regard to the size of this article (and a little more is to come...). It would mean either an overloaded single article or immensely squeezed paragraphs. Especially the topic "student corps" has always proven to be rather attractive for English/American readers, let's keep it separate. --Anarch 18:17, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)

NPOV
"Being the oldest and noblest of their kind, the corps tend to treat all other forms of German studentenverbindung with contempt" ?????--Thw1309 06:43, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Sentence was been deletend, NPOV - Standard reference source in English language is added. Tags consequently removed.--Kresspahl 13:01, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

Konrad Adenauer
Somebody could add Konrad Adenauer, for a Corps Student Example from the Federal Republic. He was a Member of the K.St.V. Arminia Bonn, see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Katholischer_Studentenverein_Arminia_Bonn Greetz From Germany, Kroq —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.232.227.109 (talk) 21:07, 15 September 2010 (UTC)

Corps student is something else than a student from a catholic student society. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.242.20.98 (talk) 09:54, 30 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Catholic student associations do not do academic fencing like corps. There are several different kinds of student associations (Studentenverbindungen) &#24555;&#27138;&#40845; 14:40, 1 October 2011 (UTC)

Oldest still-existing kind of Studentenverbindung
Really the first sentence of the article, I don't know if that is actually backed up by solid references. Later in the article, under the section History, it actually says that they sprang from the Landsmannschaften which obviously still exist. That was my understanding of it too, so I'm kind of confused of why corps are being heralded as the oldest still-existing Studentenverbindung. Has to be either corrected or otherwise clarified. --Chris-schannes (talk) 21:51, 10 February 2019 (UTC)

I migth be able to shed light in to this topic, despite you can logicaly get it from the context of the articel. The old Landsmannschaften did not know the concept of Lebensbund, so they died after the shift to Corps. The existing Landsmannschaften formed mostly mid 19th century, as a sort of alternative to the elitist corps (and also at some point extremly costly membership expenditures) and the political Burschenschaften. There are despite two Landsmannschaften still existing as old as Corps (and thus have a origin in a old Landsmannschaft), but they where all corps till the end of 19th century. Additionaly the term Landsmannschaft is relativley wide and also used by organisations representing displaced persons of WW2 (see Vertriebenenverbände). I will edit it back.--Joules-nimrod (talk) 23:30, 14 November 2020 (UTC)
