Harvard Tests Women-Only Gym Hours to Accommodate Muslims

wten.com — A school spokesman says the trial policy went into effect last month after a group of six Muslim women asked the university for the special hours. But some students say it is wrong for Harvard to deny a resource that is supposed to be available for everyone. Supporters of the practice say it is important to show tolerance and respect.

    What a farce.
