منتديات عراق العرب __**Is your City a "Civilization?"**__

Welcome to a brand new project at MICDS. In preparation for the 6th grade course we are going to start to explore the qualifications of a "civilization" by putting St. Louis, Missouri under the microscope. If you would like to join in the project and are not at MICDS feel free to add or send video, photos, written work, web pages, art... about your city. Pick one qualifier from the list, or pick them all. Any input is welcome. Contact info: mfitzgerald@micds.org skype: mikefitz63122
