Margarethe WOLF (nee SCHÖNBERGER) (born on June 9th, 1894 in Neudörfl/Hungary), had graduated at the Medical School at the University of Vienna on April 6th, 1922 with the academic degree 'Dr. med.'.
In times of Nazism she was deprived of her academic degree on July 22nd, 1943 with the racist argument, that she as a Jew was not considered dignified an academic degree of a German university ('eines akademischen Grades einer deutschen Hochschule unwürdig').
It took 12 years since the deprivation - and a very long time since the end of Nazism - until the regranting of the doctorate took finally place on May 15th, 1955.
