The National Socialist German Student League ( NSDStB ; also NSD-Studentenbund ) was a division of the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP) for students founded in 1926. On behalf of the NSDAP, it was supposed to take over the ideological education of students in the spirit of National Socialist ideology. Like all party divisions, the NSDStB was structured strictly according to the Führer principle , barracked the students in comradeship houses (the majority of which were taken over corporation houses ) and from 1930 onwards equipped them with brown-coloured shirts and swastika flags. The Badge of Honour of the NSD Student Union is one of the anti-constitutional propaganda tools in the Federal Republic of Germany , the production, public wearing or distribution of which is prohibited.
