Veteran followers of this blog will remember when we used to hold regular quizzes and offered prizes to wide-eyed winners.
Remember these? Who is the patron saint at the end of the world's longest arcade? The name of that fountain? Why roses in the mail boxes?

Looking for a clue? |
Before the days of online search engines, it was easy to think up stumpers. Now try to ask a question that can't be answered with a few taps on a keyboard.
Here's one that's not so easy. The first person to guess correctly will win a SAIS Bologna -- yes, Bologna -- tee shirt. (Sorry, no SAIS Europe shirts in stock.)
What was the matriculation fee at the SAIS Bologna Center in 1955-56, its first year of operations?

A matriculation fee was $5.00. This was easy :)
Well done, Felix and Marko. You are both correct. The matriculation fee that first year of the Bologna Center was $5 (at 625 lire per dollar), and annual tuition was $800. The good old days. Felix was first in with the right answer -- very soon after the quiz was posted -- and gets the tee shirt. Felix: Could you send us your mailing address and your preferred size, please? Marko -- Could Amina and I treat you to a coffee? Thanks to both of you for playing.
A cup of coffee sounds great. Btw, I have already had the Bologna Center tee shirt. Congrats to Felix
