UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA Draws Fire, Lawsuit for Assigning Book on Islam Washington Post Staff Writer

Wednesday, August 7, 2002; Page A01

No one complained two years ago when the University of North Carolina required its incoming freshmen to read a book about the lingering effects of the Civil War, nor last year when it assigned a book about a Hmong immigrant's struggle with epilepsy and American medicine.

. . . But a national TV talk show host, Fox News Network's Bill O'Reilly, compared the assignment to teaching "Mein Kampf" in 1941 and questioned the purpose of making freshmen study "our enemy's religion." . . . © 2002 The Washington Post Company

Could it be North Carolina?
