They need to find a different school if they are so 'offended'.
Catholic University has been accused of violating the human rights of Muslim students by not allowing them to form a Muslim student group and by not providing them rooms without Christian symbols for their daily prayers, according to a complaint filed with the Washington, D.C. Office of Human Rights.
The 60-page complaint said Muslim students must perform their prayers surrounded by symbols of Catholicism e.g., a wooden crucifix, paintings of Jesus, pictures of priests and theologians which many Muslim students find inappropriate....
Banzhaf said some Muslim students were particularly offended because they had to meditate in the schools chapels and at the cathedral that looms over the entire campus the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception.
