Upon first investigation of the package, she noted that it was excessively taped, and could not find the resident’s name or address that the package was intended for. The parcel did however, contain a return address. After the May Hall man- ager was contacted, the decision was made to call public safe- ty, and later the River Falls Police Department to further assess the situation. After evaluating the situation, at 3:25 p.m., the RFPD chose to take precautionary measures, and evacuate both May Hall and the connecting Emogene A. Nelson Center. Not wanting to cause unnecessary panic, the RFPD knocked on residents’ doors and asked them to leave the building immediately, instead of pulling a fire alarm. Also, if authorities proceeded to sound the fire alarm, it could have detonated the potential bomb, as some bombs are designated to be triggered by pulling an alarm. The police also closed Spruce Street and opened Karges Center for May Hall residents. Given that the situation occurred on Saturday after- “We weren’t able to noon, the majority of stu- dents residing in May Hall confirm any data had left for the weekend.

    Introduction Prague, Czechoslovakia (1918-1992) 1918–1992 For seventy-four years, these two words were like a married couple. Even these days, more than a quarter of a century after the dissolution of Czechoslovakia, we still find the odd foreign politician or journalist using the term for today’s Czech Republic. Czech citizens are bemused, frustrated, but resigned to it: it seems the word Czechoslovakia has indelibly left its mark in our collective memory. Prague is praised by visitors mainly for its uniquely preserved historical city centre, with an almost fairytale architectural ambience. The ancient beauty of the centre lets the visitor gloss over the dramatic and, sometimes, tragic moments of the city and country’s twentieth-century history. The 100th anniversary of the founding of Czechoslovakia in 2018 is thus an opportunity to reveal to our visitors those aspects of Prague history that have been overshadowed by its older and better-known mementos. Our ‘digest’, which you are currently holding, will draw your attention not only to buildings, but also works of art, monuments or other things of note that bring Prague’s Czechoslovak era to mind. Each year of the existence of Czechoslovakia is matched by one aspect, though not always with absolute chronological precision. Our aim and hope has been primarily to make our publication captivating, diverse and – we hope – rewarding for Prague’s visitors.
