If we want to succeed in our desperate attempt to save anglophone languages and literatures at the University of Greifswald we need the active support of colleagues, of the Institutes of English and American Studies in Germany and abroad, and also of other institutions for higher education and culture in general.
Greifswald would thus lose its character as a university and be reduced to a kind of science-medicine-psychology school - with English being offered only as the academic lingua franca for the remaining fields of North-Eastern European Studies.

As well, Fietz examines the impact of the Humboldt reforms on student enrollment at German universities, including Greifswald, concluding that the renewed focus on the university as a center of education, research, and intellectual development proved to be a tremendous draw to both foreign and domestic students.
The University of Berlin, as the institution pioneering the Humboldt reforms, saw its total enrolment increase from 5,000 to 16,000 students between 1815 and 1830.
