What’s with giving Islam preferential treatment over other religions?

USA Today reports some universities and public schools are granting Muslim demands for prayer times, prayer rooms and ritual foot baths.

The University of Michigan at Dearborn, for example, is planning to build foot baths for Muslim students who wash their feet before prayer, and at George Mason University, Muslim students use a “meditation space,” laying out Muslim prayer rugs and separating men and women.

Critics divine a double standard at work and an organized effort to bring about public conformance with Islamic law.
