Philanthropist challenges college students to actively encourage peace

"After reviewing the submissions, Middlebury College President Ron Liebowitz’s office chose to fund an additional project titled “Development of a Model Micro Hydropower Project in Nepal.” Middlebury College sophomore Dristy Shrestha has teamed with two other non-Middlebury students to develop a micro hydropower unit that will generate hydroelectricity for at least 30 households as a model with the hope to inspire and educate other villages and encourage rural development in Nepal."
