...show of teaching virtue and righteous self-restraint, but their shifty eyes and hollow voices betray their lack of belief. They are paid to say these things, by the city of New Prospect and the state of New Jersey. They lack true faith; they are not on the Straight Path; they are unclean. Ahmad and the two thousand other students can see them scuttling after school into their cars on the crackling, trash-speckled parking lot like pale crabs or dark ones restored to their shells, and they are men and women like any others, full of lust and fear...
...where did that body fly to? Perhaps it was snatched up by God and taken straight to Heaven. Ahmads teacher, Shaikh Rashid, the imam at the mosque upstairs at 2781 1/2 West Main Street, tells him that according to the sacred tradition of the Hadith such things happen: the Messenger, riding the winged white horse Buraq, was guided through the seven heavens by the angel Gabriel to a certain place, where he prayed with Jesus, Moses, and Abraham before returning to Earth, to become the last of the prophets, the ultimate one.

The first initiatives are, among other things, to establish a peer advising program, recruit more non-resident advisers for the Board...
...opportune time to come out. Harvard is arguably one of the most gay-friendly campuses, with an active Harvard Bisexual, Gay, Lesbian, Transgender, and Supporters Alliance (BGLTSA) and other support groups like Contact. In addition, BGLT students can speak with BGLT professors, graduate students, other BGLT friends, or understanding straight friends. It would be a shame for these students to spend four years here, where there are so many great resources to help them figure out their sexuality, but fail to do so and end up back in a conservative town or religious community devoid of these assets...
