Leuven: Muslim students open college academic year
Via HLN (Dutch, h/t NRP):
Two Muslim students in headscarves, opened the academic session at the Group T engineering college in Leuven with a prayer. "Kamila and Manan are, with so many others, a symbol of the plurality of our worldviews," says the international college, who is part of the K.U.Leuven.
Group T's teacher training is the only one in Flanders in which students can choose between five different religious subjects: Catholic, non-confessional ethics, Buddhism, Islam and starting this year also Protestantism.
Group T says that a plurality coordinators is responsible for an intense dialog between these life-views.
