1971 was a bad year for HHGS. All education at Handels became a part of the University of Gothenburg, which resulted in HHGS losing their status as a union. HHGS dissolved and became an association called Götekon within FFS, the Student Union of Philosophy. Before HHGS dissolved, the students were smart and placed all assets in a fund for Götekon and its members, which made it possible for Götekon to stay strong and grow as an association.
