JC ONLINE: With hijabs to try on, Middle Eastern recipes to taste, and copies of the Quran on display, Islamic Awareness Week is in full swing at Purdue University.
In a tent at Memorial Mall Wednesday, members of the Muslim Student Association shared information about Muslim culture.
"This is very important and a pleasure to all of us," Purdue graduate student Sameer Mojlish said. "Students come to ask us questions (about our religion and culture) and it's a great opportunity to share with them our faith and beliefs."
Mojlish was one of several students in the tent representing Islam, a culture many Muslims feel is often misrepresented and undervalued in the media. » | William Murrell | Thursday, April 19, 2012
