Muslim Students Demand Prayer Rooms in Every 'Major Building' [U. Maryland]
Campus Reform ^ | 12/21/16 | Toni Airaksinen

Posted on 12/21/2016 8:19:37 PM PST by marshmallow

* Students at the University of Maryland have released a list of 64 demands in their effort make the campus more amenable to "Marginalized, American Indian, Black, Latinx, LGBTQIA+, Muslim, Pro-Palestine, and Undocumented" students.

* Muslim students, for instance, want “one room in each major building designated for prayer” and “shuttle services to [the local mosque] for Muslim students to have access to a place of worship.”

Students at the University of Maryland have released a list of 64 demands in their effort make the campus more amenable to “marginalized student populations.”

The project, known as ProtectUMD, is a collaborative effort between 25 student organizations at the University of Maryland, including Students for Justice in Palestine, Bisexuals at Maryland, and the Black Student Union.

There are 64 demands across 8 subsets of students—Marginalized, American Indian, Black, Latinx, LGBTQIA+, Muslim, Pro-Palestine, and Undocumented—including scholarships for “students of marginalized communities,” a ban on Columbus Day, beginning every on-campus event with an acknowledgement that “this is Indigenous Land,” that African American professors get tenure, that preferred pronouns are included on rosters, and that “queer diversity training” is required.

Herewith the Dhimmitization of the University. They will get their prayer rooms then they will demand that courses that contradict the Koran and Haditha be abolished. They will get that, too and eventually the University will be a Madrassa where Americans send their children to be converted to the new paradigm.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
IMHO parents who would pay for their children to go there should be arrested for child abuse because they are knowingly subjecting their kids to indoctrination by a death cult.

My very succinct reply to all these whiners bereft of anything filling their crania: Go find some sand to pound, losers.

No, separation of church and state. It cannot be done, so sorry.

They can use the Transgender restrooms. There is at least one in every Major Building.

“beginning every on-campus event with an acknowledgement that “this is Indigenous Land,””

It’s a new orthodoxy for their new religion.

you left out the scariest, most ridiculous part:

“We commend the students for their passionate advocacy and for coming together in solidarity on these issues,” a university spokesperson told Campus Reform. “President Loh has convened a group of his staff to thoroughly review the list of demands and make recommendations accordingly. That process is well underway.”

That already seems the case for most universities in the land. Outside of the hard sciences University education is child abuse and society abuse.

Exactly. It’s predatory.

Outrageous. Can you imagine the ridicule and scorn that would be heaped upon a group of Christian students who demanded a prayer chapel in “every major campus building”?

“...this is Indigenous land....”

If they are really that torn up by this, they should put their money where their mouth is and get off the land.

Goes for public school, too. Parents who send their children to public school are ipso facto child abusers. Parents who legitimately homeschool their kids or send them to most private or parochial schools are usually insulating them somewhat against the indoctrination in the universities.

Sounds like a target-rich environment for mass arrests...

When the inmates run the asylum, halfway measures of resistance are the certain road to chaos. No society can survive when one side is unrestrained buy any rule, and the rules of the civilized society is paralyzed by self deluded "fair play."
