Statement of the Dean on the death of a student

13 Oct 2022

It is with deep sorrow that we announce that the body of a student who most likely decided to end his life by jumping from a higher floor of one of the faculty buildings was found under the windows of the main complex of buildings of the Faculty of Arts this morning. Although emergency services were immediately called to the scene, the student unfortunately did not survive. The matter is under investigation by the Czech police, who are also communicating with the student's family.

On behalf of the entire academic community of the Faculty of Arts of Masaryk University, I express my sincere condolences to the student's family, friends and all loved ones.
