The new Lennéstraße cafeteria is an ambitious Studierendenwerk project that is breaking with conventional ideas, conceiving of the cafeteria as a place for students to socially interact all day long. Besides a lounge and café, special areas are provided for conversation, collaborative working, events and relaxation. And planning of course includes spaces for student counseling and student housing. The responsible municipal government committees of the City of Bonn have just given the green light for construction to start.
Die neue „Mensa an der Lennéstraße“ ist ein ambitioniertes Projekt des Studierendenwerks. Es bricht dabei mit dem klassischen Konzept: Die Mensa wird als sozialer Ort gedacht, an dem sich Studis den ganzen Tag lang aufhalten sollen. Neben einer Lounge und Café gibt es Raum für Gespräche, kollaborative Arbeit, Events und Entspannung. Beratung und Wohnen kommen natürlich auch nicht zu kurz. Jetzt gaben die Bonner Kommunalgremien und die Stadt grünes Licht für den Baubeginn.

The site of the present-day Department of Law used to be home to a Jewish school from 1934 onward. Its children and teachers were ostracized, deported and murdered during the Third Reich. Only one pupil lived to see 1945. A plaque now commemorates the achievements of the school and its principal Hans-Herbert Hammerstein.
The history of mathematics was his passion: as well as being a leading mathematical researcher, Otto Toeplitz (1881–1940) was also extremely interested in the history of the subject, to which he added great value with some major studies of mathematics in Ancient Greece.
