Zwei junge Frauen sitzen in einem überdachten Nischenbereich eines historischen Gebäudes zwischen Marmorsäulen auf einer steinernen Bank und unterhalten sich. Beide tragen legere Kleidung, haben Rucksäcke dabei und essen Snacks. Über ihnen ist in großen weißen Buchstaben ein Text eingeblendet: „Im Schnitt: 650 Euro. Berliner Studis zahlen bundesweit am meisten Miete“. Oben links ist der Text rot hinterlegt. Unten links ist das Logo von rbb24 zu sehen. Fotocredit: Ulrich Baumgarten/dpa.

Studierende in Berlin zahlen sogar mehr Miete als in Bayern oder Hamburg. Die Wohnkostenpauschale des Bafög deckt in 70 von 88 Städten die Mietkosten nicht mehr ab. Am günstigsten wohnen Studierende in Sachsen-Anhalt, Thüringen und Sachsen. rbburl.de/mietestudierende

Thanks to the brilliant work of Melanie Wiener and her Grafikbuero, the Dahlem Center for Linguistics now has a new logo 🤩

The official inauguration will take place in just ten days, on June 20.
