The Nutty Professor

Posted in Get Involved, blog by sharissa on November 13, 2009

There was an article written a few days ago by a nutty professor.  Many of his students especially those who are Muslims expressed concern over the article the professor wrote entitled, “Going Muslim”.  The students complained to the dean of the college and the Dean responded with,

 ”Your complaint is duly noted. I read Mr. Varadarajan’s article very differently than you did. I think it is a very distorted reading to call this hate speech. Read it carefully. In any event I would not censor it or rebuke him for having written it. We are an institution that treasures free speech and open dialogue. You need to think more about what this means since you don’t seem to understand it.

I would suggest that if you take issue with what Mr. Vardarajan wrote you take the issue up with him. There is space for feedback on the Forbes site.

Dean Thomas Cooley” .

My first  reaction to that was:  What do you call the article basically saying that Islam spread itself by conquest and is a violent religion? 

 By the way, if you think that then visit this link:  http://satrong.org/content/religion/WasIslam_Raihan.pdf

Muslim who acts out violently should be referred to as, “Going Muslim”? If that isn’t a hate speech against Muslims… I don’t know what is. The freedom to spread hate should not be allowed by our learning institutions. That is absurd.

If you are as outraged as I am then you can comment on the Forbes website, write a piece about it on your own blog, or even email Dean Cooley at  tcooley@stern.nyu.edu or email or The Nutty Professor (a.k.a Tunku Varadarajan) at tvaradar@stern.nyu.edu .

Real or Rumor?

Posted in blog by sharissa on October 19, 2009

The other day my cousin and I were talking and Hurricane Katrina came up in our conversation.  My cousin informed me that he met a lady who had relocated here to Texas from New Orleans, LA.  Her and her husband claim they heard the levee being dynamited (they believe by the military)  by the 9th Ward so that the more prominent areas wouldn’t have a chance of flooding.

I did some reasearch and found this …

Egyptian Ancestry?

Posted in blog by sharissa on October 10, 2009
My Scotch/Irish ancestors actually possibly go back to Egypt I learnt just yesterday LOL (through the McAdams bloodline). One of my ancestors they say worked for a Pharaoh.
“The Scots tribe is said to be descendants of Nuil and Scotia. Nuil, a grandson of Gaodhal Glas was an instructor in Egypt to the Pharaoh. He married the Pharaoh’s daughter, Scotia from where the Scots get their name.”

Recently an Arab family residing in East Jerusalem were forcefully removed from their home by the Israeli’s and their home was taken over by a Jewish family.  The U.S. has criticized the Israeli’s.

Imagine if your family were forced to leave your home…
