certificate, or diploma, which confers upon him the enjoyment of all
the rights of academical burgership. Through this he acquires a claim
on the academical court of justice, on the protection of the academical
laws, as well as the right to enjoy the benefit of the library and the
learned institutions.
No one who has not matriculated can attend the public lectures, except
the tutors, companions or attendants, appointed by parents or guardians
to students--these, of course, also paying the regular fees--and such
persons not studying in the universities as are so far advanced in life
as to put matriculation out of the question. This right of academical
citizenship continues five years, provided it be not voluntarily
relinquished or penally forfeited. The laws extend themselves to the
relations between the students and the heads, professors, and
subordinate officers of the university, as well as towards other
officers of the state or city. For instance, the penalties are stated,
for offences against these various officers, as also the duties of the
students in regard to their studies. A long series of laws defines the
penalties for the peculiar offences of students, as for games of
hazard, real and verbal injuries to one another, especially for the
duel, under its various forms; for breaking the peace, drunkenness,
tumults and uproars, interdicted assembling of themselves together,
secret combinations of students, etc. It is further declared, that
public processions are only permitted under certain conditions, and
that the wearing of colours is forbidden. Further declarations regard
the debts of the students; and lastly, the regulations under which the
advantages of the university library are to be enjoyed are made known.
