At the beginning of each term, at the general assembly, the residents elect the representatives who want to take care of a specific part of the life at DBH for one
semester. A current version of the rules of procedure of the house assembly can be found here (PDF) (german). Those committees mainly bring up administrative tasks and ensure that there is always at least one person responsible for a certain task. Furthermore,
the list below gives insight into the activities of our house. For those of you who are already living at the DBH the list of the current occupation and additional helpful information can be
found in the latest minutes of the house assembly.
