The Law
against the Overcrowding of German Schools and Institutions of
Higher Learning set a Jewish quota of 1.5 percent of high-school and
university enrollment, and stipulated a limit of 5-percent Jewish
enrollment in any single school. Because a compulsory education law
was in effect, Jewish enrollment in primary schools was not limited
for the time being. However, growing numbers of Jews voluntarily
moved to purely Jewish settings by 1938, when they were totally
barred from general institutions. In autumn 1941, the Jewish schools
were closed by administrative order. |
