Gerhard Löwenthal Prize

The Gerhard Löwenthal Prize (German: Gerhard-Löwenthal-Preis) is an award for "free and conservative journalism" (freiheitlich-konservativen Journalismus) in Germany. Endowed by German "Foundation for Conservative Education and Research" (Förderstiftung Konservative Bildung und Forschung), it is awarded in cooperation with national-conservative newspaper Junge Freiheit and Ingeborg Löwenthal, widow of conservative journalist and Holocaust survivor Gerhard Löwenthal. Issued annually between 2004 and 2009, it has since been awarded only biannually.[1]

Recipients of the Gerhard Löwenthal honorary prize

A special honorary prize has been awarded to:

gollark: Not *everyone*. The immigrants are presumably better off, hence why they do it.
gollark: In a sane system it would make more sense to just make the courses a year longer to cover background material instead of forcing people through 4 years of extremely expensive education.
gollark: Having to do 4 years of schooling before medicine-specific stuff seems dubiously useful.
gollark: Medical degrees here are like regular undergraduate ones but I think somewhat more government-specified and a bit longer.
gollark: Memorizing vast amounts of random information is probably less important now you can look it up quickly too.
