Jane El Horr and Sana Safed hold that Muslim students of liberal, as opposed to dogmatic “hardcore,” leanings are increasingly making their presence known on U.S. campuses. Writing in the Wall Street Journal, the two point to (and direct) Project Nur, a recently formed student Muslim organization that rejects the proselytization and radicalism associated with the Muslim Students Association in favor of promoting human freedom and creativity, interfaith discussion, and an openness to American society.

May this needed and promising project thrive.
