More than 260 students attended a conference on Islam sponsored by the Council on American-Islamic Relations at Providence High School on Wednesday.
The all-day event started with a local Islamic religious leader reciting from the Koran and a CAIR representative reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.
Students attended lectures on Islam and participated in discussions on a variety of topics.
"It was a beautiful day," said Sarwat Hussain, executive director of CAIR-San Antonio. "Many teachers and interfaith leaders also participated in the event and deemed it a great success."
I dont' have a problem with this kind of thing as long as there is equal access. If they want to go teach about catholocism one day, or hinduism one day, I'm all for it.
With one rule. There should be NO active recruiting done at schools without some form of parental consent.
