Peace Border McCone Mural
Languages submitted by MIIS community
2
This summer, a new mural will be painted at the center of the Middlebury Institute campus. It will include the word "peace" in different languages around the border. We need your help! Members of our community have submitted words for inclusion and we are double-checking all of them. The lines in white haven't yet been verified - let us know if you can confirm the word is correct or if it needs correction!
