Faces of the Student Council

Settling in a new city can be dif­fi­cult. Moving to an ent­i­re­ly new coun­try, howe­ver, is even more chal­len­ging. Paula Klötzke is the con­sul­tant for inter­na­tio­nal mat­ters of MLU’s stu­dent coun­cil and hel­ps inter­na­tio­nal stu­dents at their arri­val and during their stay in Halle. In the fol­lowing inter­view she talks about a “num­ber fetis­hism” that seems to have infec­ted some uni­ver­si­ties, her work as con­sul­tant and the new­ly foun­ded working group AK Internationales.
