Looking Back and Looking Forward

In 2017, the University of Freiburg, together with its Upper Rhine partners in the consortium Eucor - The European Campus, set a signal to support European integration and have campaigned for diversity, openness and intellectual curiosity. Students, guest researchers and staff members from nearly 150 countries contributed jointly to make it a very successful year. In his Christmas greeting, Rector Prof. Dr. Hans-Jochen Schiewer reports on the year ending and provides perspective on the coming year, 2018. He wishes everyone at the University as well as the alumnae and alumni a peaceful holiday season and a happy New Year.
