Ricarda Lang Earns Bachelor of Laws, Tells Söder to 'Get New Jokes'

The Greens politician says she will pursue a master's at FernUni Hagen to broaden her career options beyond politics.

Overview

  • Lang announced the law degree with a photo in front of Humboldt-Universität and the caption "Bachelor of Laws."
  • She followed up with a video aimed at CSU leader Markus Söder, telling him to "Get new jokes" after his 2024 quip about his dog Molly's training.
  • The Humboldt bachelor's is an alternative qualification rather than the classic Staatsexamen route and does not confer full jurist status.
  • According to Bild, she is enrolled in a master's program at FernUniversität in Hagen and says the step makes her less dependent on a political career.
  • She began studying in 2012, paused around 2019 for politics, and joked in comments that she got her degree "before GTA6," drawing a wave of online congratulations.
