As I recall there were no Moslem students involved in the complaint. They were apparently busy studying. This is a phony BS complaint concocted by a lawyer looking for a fee to be awarded after a trial or something.

I think you are correct. Several years ago Georgetown took down their crucifixes so that they didn't offend students who were not Catholic.

It was the Muslim students who asked that they be put back on the walls. They said that they certainly expected that there would be crucifixes on the walls since they were attending a Catholic University and were perfectly aware that there would be symbols and other things Catholic in the environment.

They seemed to be offended that the University did not recognize the fact that they were intelligent enough to know what to expect at a school that was established and identified as Catholic when they enrolled.

Correct it was by some whacko law professor from one the Georges in DC. No Muslim student actually complained. Talk about not having standing.
