Campus-wide Fast-a-thon

Students are invited to participate in a "fast-a-thon" in solidarity with our Muslim students. Typically, monies from meals missed during Ramadan are given in charity to those in need. (The emphasis on charity or "alms-giving" or Zakat is a key pillar of Islam). Participation in the "fast-a-thon" involves abstaining from all nourishment between sun-up and sun-down.
