On Friday February 20, at 4:30 p.m. in PAC 001, Faraz Khan will deliver a lecture entitled, “Environmental Ethics and Islam: Providing a Pragmatic Model.”
This year ISLAM IN CONVERSATION is not just one week but TWO–an entire fortnight of lectures, film screenings and even a live comedy show!
The post-9/11 atmosphere has increased our awareness of the Muslim world, but in what capacity? All of us can easily call to mind instances when we knew that we were being exposed to a highly biased presentation of information, such as on particular news networks. However, even at times when the information we absorbed was accurate, it was still not the whole story.
Salam Wesleyan students, staff, faculty, alumni and Middletown residents! The Muslim Students Association and the Office of Religious and Spiritual Life are proud to announce the second annual Islam in Conversation Week. Months of organizing have brought together an event lineup that would make the country’s most prominent Islamic Studies programs jealous of us here at Wesleyan.
