Abstract

M. Römeris’s constant endeavour and experience were gained from his studies in the various universities of different countries. Presiding over eminent experts and established professors-educationalists of his day aided in M. Römeris’s mastery of pedagogics.One of the most fundamental academic provisions of M. Römeris was that the relations between university professors and students had to be built on mutual respect and reliance. In his belief, the professor is obligated to earn the respect and the fondness of students through his valuable work, both as a scholar and as a human being. M. Römeris rendered this exclusive consideration in the study process during his lectures. In his belief, a lively speech could never be replaced by books. Even having given lectures for the same course of Constitutional Law for years, M. Römeris used to prepare for the lectures very thoroughly, constantly, and improved and updated them. His lectures were thorough and widely and deeply analysed problems.
