Submitted 12/18/24. One English sign, "Repair and maintenance of cars prohibited in parking area" is translated into Spanish in another sign by its side: "Prohibidó hacer reparaciones y mantenimiento de vehículos en la area de estacionamiento" (is this correct Spanish?). Farther away, one sign appears only in English: (something about the managment will not take responsibility for anything stolen out of cars parked in the lot). Who does managment presume to be the theives and who does maintenance on their cars? MultilingualNewJersey

Both are considered languages of Western Enlightenment, but perhaps using the older Greek for the women's college was a claim to women's ability to go deep in their learning. MultilingualNewJersey
