Crumbling lecture halls or forward-looking investments? Panel discussion on the election touchstone "University construction and building maintenance"

Building, renovating, maintaining... These have been burning issues at Hessian universities for some time now. Higher education needs a secure basis. Good buildings, new buildings, sufficient rooms and modern equipment are therefore not a luxury. The universities have placed expectations on state politics and formulated them in election test stones for the state elections, including the demand for more money for university construction.
In a public panel discussion, representatives of the political parties currently represented in the Hessian state parliament will comment on this.
