==Early history naming disparities==

The History of Addison County[http://www.middlebury.edu/academics/lis/lib/guides_and_tutorials/subject_guides/collection_guide-vermont/internet_resources/history_addison_county/chap15_hac.htm], published in 1886, lists November 8, 1797, as the date of the charter of the Addison County Grammar School (page 344), as established by act of the state legislature. It may not have been active, however, until the new year.

Additionally, it establishes that the legislature granted the College's charter to the "President and Fellows of Middlebury College" (page 347), the legal name of the corporation today. The use of "Middlebury Academy" is not clear, but it is unlikely the degree-granting institution was known as that.

== Too many photos of alumni ==
 
The alumni section has too many photos, especially for a section with no prose whatsoever - and no citations. [[User:ElKevbo|ElKevbo]] ([[User talk:ElKevbo|talk]]) 02:58, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
== Course Selection ==
Check this out before you choose any classes...
 
== Article requires updating on campus-events ==
MiddKid.com, a local student site, offers online course evaluations. You can use this site to reference classes you’re thinking of taking, so you can see how other students have rated the teacher and material. You can also post your own ratings to help out other students. Check out http://middkid.com/eval/ for more information.
 
The 21st Century section hasn't been updated since 2019. There should be a paragraph describing the effects of the Covid pandemic on the College and community. An additional paragraph could describe Middlebury's "For Every Future" fundraiser campaign to raise $600 million in donations.
