Staff and Faculty are invited to attend a special presentation on Ramadan and supporting Muslim students during this sacred month. This presentation will be offered by one of our community leaders, educator & advocate (Asmaa Qadar, originally from Egypt).

As we embrace diversity and inclusivity within our STU community, it is crucial to understand the significance of Ramadan and the several ways we can offer support and accommodation to Muslim students here at STU.

This session will provide valuable insights, practical tips, and resources to ensure that Muslim students feel supported, respected, and included during this holy month of Ramadan. Together, let us foster an environment of empathy, understanding, and solidarity as we strive to create a more inclusive campus for all.
