Vandalia, Heidelberg student corps, was today expelled from the Federation of Heidelberg student societies and from two general unions of German student groups on the ground that the Vandalia group has “consistently refused to oust Jewish students and those of Jewish descent.”
At the same time university authorities announced that in the future no student of Heidelberg would be allowed to join the Vandalia society.
