An Open Message to President Brodhead and Our Colleagues,by
26 Concerned Duke FacultyWe are saddened and angered at the calculus used to determine what Duke can “afford.” To choose, on this, of all weekends, to exclude and insult members of our community by downsizing support for the public adhan, the Muslim call to prayer, tarnishes Duke in ways that may not be easily monetized but that nonetheless entail enormous costs. We stand with our students and other members of our community to respectfully suggest that the best way to protect them is to unequivocally support them.
