The Senate Ombudsman for International Students - currently this is Professor Leize - is nominated by the Senate of Karlsruhe University of Applied Sciences to help international students if experience trouble with any member of HsKA. For example, if you run into a conflict with a fellow student or professor, or if you feel that you are treated unfairly or differently from other students. He then will try to mediate the conflict. Experience tells this usually is successful.
Therefore please feel free to contact the Senate Ombudsman as early as possible. Of course he will work discreetly and protect your privacy if you wish so.
