Corps Saxo-Borussia
Corps Saxo-Borussia is a student corporation (fraternity) in Germany and a member of the Deutsche Corps Studentenvereinigung (DCS). It was founded in 1820 and has its roots at the University of Leipzig. The name Saxo-Borussia combines Saxo (for Saxony) and Borussia (for Prussia), reflecting the historical and regional ties behind the founding of the Corps.
Corps Saxo-Borussia is an academic club for students that not only encourages exchange among its members but is also deeply rooted in a range of traditions. The Corps community places particular emphasis on camaraderie, socialising and developing its members’ academic and social skills.
Key features of Corps Saxo-Borussia:
- Academic support: Corps such as Saxo-Borussia support their members throughout their academic careers and encourage exchange among students.
- Socialising and camaraderie: A central element of Corps tradition is the close community among members. This leads to lifelong friendships and a strong network that continues long after university.
- Traditions and rituals: Corps have deep-rooted traditions and rituals that have been upheld for decades. These may include wearing particular colours, celebrating Corps occasions and taking part in special events.
- Network and career support: Corps members can benefit from a wide-ranging network of former members, which can be an advantage in both their professional and social lives.
- Wearing the colours: As with many other Corps, wearing the Corps colours is a symbolic feature that reflects membership of this student community.
Corps Saxo-Borussia plays an important role in the tradition of student fraternities in Germany, offering its members both an academic and a social home.
