Students learned cultural and religious respect as they gathered for Iftar on Friday evening in Cashion Lobby. Organized by Intercultural Engagement and the Center for Global Engagement, students broke their fast as per the customs of Ramadan.
Representing other cultures does not negate your own Christianity, the same way being a student at Baylor does not automatically make you a Baptist. As students, we represent Baylor as a Christian university as much as you, and we reflect God’s love by showing the same compassion and care to our fellow students.
In order for the university to uphold its commitment to respecting all people, that would mean providing dietary accommodations for practicing Muslim first-year students specifically, since they are required to purchase a meal plan. These students deserve to feel comfortable eating on campus without fear that they are going against their religious beliefs by doing so.
