Troublemakers were detained for at least three days and up to four weeks and fed only bread and water. Delinquents doing more time could interrupt their sentence for critical reasons (say, to take exams). Crimes were of disturbing the peace, womanizing, unruly drunkenness, or freeing the local pigs. Being jailed in the Studentenkarzer couldn't have been too unpleasant judging by the inventive graffiti and inscriptions, some students seem to find their stay highly entertaining
