Location and Staff
Situated entirely on one central campus, the university is located south of Regensburg's inner city on a small incline south of the River Danube, and directly adjacent of the A 3 autobahn. The university itself consists of 150 hectares (280 acres) of land.
Including the affiliated university hospital, the University of Regensburg has approximately 4,200 employees including 312 professors, and teaches about 16,000 students. The university's reputation and attractiveness is enhanced by the 2,000 year-old town of Regensburg, its scenic countryside, the Donautal (Danube Valley), modest living costs, a high density of bars and the nearby heights of the Bavarian Forest. Brisk cultural life both in the city and on campus provide great recreational opportunities, enhanced by a number of nearby lakes.

Famous quotes containing the word staff:
“... all my letters are read. I like that. I usually put something in there that I would like the staff to see. If some of the staff are lazy and choose not to read the mail, I usually write on the envelope “Legal Mail.” This way it will surely be read. It’s important that we educate everybody as we go along.”
—Jean Gump, U.S. pacifist. As quoted in The Great Divide, book 2, section 10, by Studs Terkel (1988)
