The ballot

With a vote from 25.10.2021 - 31.10.2021, we as the Student Council wanted to know from the student body whether a semester ticket is wanted. For the vote, we as the Student Council had unanimously agreed and communicated the following criteria for the introduction of a semester ticket in advance:

  • If the voting turnout is below 20%, the plenary of the student council decides independently and autonomously.
  • If at least 500 students or the majority of votes cast vote for the introduction of a semester ticket, this justifies the introduction of a semester ticket for us. Yes and no votes count as votes cast.

The vote was accompanied by an extensive campaign to inform students about the conditions, advantages and disadvantages of a semester ticket. The vote took place online using the university's online voting tool.

Voting result

Question: The StuRa should initiate the process of introducing a semester ticket based on the solidarity principle.
