GREETINGS
Dietlind Grabe-Bolz Mayor University Town Giessen
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen, During the 53rd National Council Meeting by ELSA Germany in the university town of Giessen different people from diverse nations will meet each other. Diverse characters and interests, plans for the future and visions of life get together. One thing connects them: The interest in advanced legal training and the eagerness towards a fair, respectful and tolerant interaction.
All in all, your interests and backgrounds are just as diverse as the proposals for the Flower Show.
I am happy that you host your National Council Meeting in Giessen again after 2010. You chose the right time because the year 2014 is characterised by the 5th Flower Show in Hessen. Many events - from concerts to art projects, from championships for florists to a many and varied sports programme - fill up this year‘s entertainment guide in Giessen, and I can only invite you to visit our ‚Wieseckaue‘, the main zone of the Flower Show. It highlights, for example, our tradition as an university town by the gardens for science. But even so at the river Lahn many exciting things will happen and so it is always worth to go on an excursion.
Yours, Dietlind Grabe-Bolz Mayor
Therefore, I hope that besides your skilled exchanges, you will find the opportunity and time to explore Giessen and to pay a visit to our Flower Show. In this spirit I wish you a good, informative and eventful time in Giessen.

Prof. Dr. Joybrato Mukherjee
President of the Justus Liebig University University Town Giessen
Dear participants of the 53rd National Council Meeting, After 4 years Justus Liebig University Giessen (JLU) is again venue for the National Council Meeting of the European Law Students‘ Association (ELSA). I am honoured by this appreciation and welcome you back to JLU’s campus of Law and Economy. If you took a look at the map before you embarked on your trip to Giessen, you may have realized that Giessen is situated right in the heart of Europe. This central location has played an important role in making the University of Giessen an important centre for academic exchange and in attracting well-known scientists from all over the world until today. Many famous alumni have contributed to JLU’s potential since 1607. More than 26,500 students are presently enrolled at JLU’s 11 successful faculties. Justus Liebig, JLU’s eponym, was appointed as a professor at the University of Giessen, where he taught from 1824 to 1852. Justus Liebig established the research area of what is today known as
organic chemistry and revolutionized higher education by systematically involving students in his research. In doing so, he set new standards in the natural sciences worldwide and attracted many students from all over the world. With the multidisciplinary future concept „translating science worldwide“ JLU follows the Liebig tradition of interdisciplinary synergies, excellence in research training and broad international networking. It offers its academics and international partners an ideal platform for wide-ranging collaboration and puts internationalization centre stage. ELSA Giessen plays an important role in keeping alive the ideas and tradition of Justus Liebig. The world-wide ELSA network – active in 300 universities in 41 countries – brings together students from different countries and cultures and thereby creates an indispensable basis for international cooperation. I want to thank all eager volunteers for their contribution to the 53rd National Council Meeting and I wish all participants fruitful debates and valuable suggestions for their further work. Prof. Dr. Joybrato Mukherjee Patron of the 53rd National Council Meeting of ELSA Germany President of Justus Liebig University Giessen

Dear ELSAnians, we are proud to welcome you all in our university town Giessen and we are wishing to experience an unforgettable weekend full of important decisions, sparkling discussions and lively exchange of experiences! After we were elected during the 51st National Council Meeting in Bayreuth to host this National Council Meeting, we immediately started with the first preparations and gained Prof. Joybrato Mukherjee, president of the Justus-LiebigUniversity Giessen, as our patron. We would like to tie in with the last National Council Meeting in Giessen in 2010 and to offer you some of the unforgettable elements of this past event. The parties will take place in the same locations – the Bootshaus and the Centralbar. Furthermore, we are offering you a short journey to Giessen because Giessen is situated nearly in the middle of Europe and near to Frankfurt with its international airport. In 2010, we presented the variety of ELSA with “Unity in Diversity”, too. ELSA stands for internationality. ELSA stands for nationality. ELSA stands for locality. ELSA
stands for practical experiences. ELSA stands for education. ELSA stands for academics. ELSA is a network. ELSA is a family. ELSA is a NGO. ELSA enables new perspectives. ELSA teaches soft skills. ELSA gives chances. ELSA is a jigsaw out of all its members and board-members. ELSA is multifaceted. Moreover, ELSA has uncountable facets – and where could you get to know new facets of ELSA better than in direct exchange with up to 300 law students at a German National Council Meeting? In addition, we would like to show once again that “ELSA is not the same” with the party-mottos “Sky & Sand” and “Hugh Hefner Party”! In spite of our variety, we are all connected under one vision: “A just world in which there is respect for human dignity and cultural diversity”. It is perhaps this mutual understanding that makes ELSA unique and it is definitely this aspect that you will be experiencing (again) at our national meeting. Anna, Ellen, Hendrik, Karsten, Ludmila, Melina, Nadine, Patric and Qais

Friedrich-Maximilian Scriba President in the National Board of ELSA Germany
Dear ELSA members, Dear Participants of the 53. National Council Meeting in Giessen, Dear International Guests, All good things come to an end. But an end clears the way for a new start. When my board was elected last year in Bayreuth, no one expected that sides would change that fast – from being the successors to watching our successors going their own way. The past year will influence my National Board forever. You don’t get this chance to be inspired and to inspire twice. That’s why we are so much looking forward to this NCM in Giessen. It is this NCM where we have the last chance as the German National Board to give and receive inspiration. It will be a special NCM since a new generation will take over. Me personally, I am especially looking forward to the elections. It is a big step to be courageous enough to present yourself in front of a plenary. I hope that a lot of you will take this step. It is an unbelievable chance working full-
time for ELSA that everyone should take. We will watch football together, party together, work in the workshops together, have fruitful discussions in the plenary together and we will elect a new National Board together. We will bring something to an end and start something new together. May we have great success, fun, energy and motivation for this weekend! Let’s make the last NCM of this term to a legendary one! Enjoy the NCM and the hospitality of our hosts from Giessen. To a good end and an even better start! Max President ELSA Germany speaking for the NB 2013/2014
