What do you think about the mosque that is being built two blocks from Ground Zero?

“I think it’s highly insensitive on their behalf, but at the same time, I don’t think anyone is purposely trying to offend people.”

–Pallavi Prakash, freshman undecided major

“It’s kind of disrespectful to the people who died.”

–Melissa Savage, junior clinical lab major

“I don’t really think it’s a big deal. Those people were radicals and you can’t generalize. The Muslim religion is supposed to be a peaceful religion. The Muslim people didn’t agree with what happened [on 9/11].”

–Kristin Ralston-Ebert, junior history major

“Generally, I think it’s kind of a damaging memory for most people. It’s not right to build a multi-million dollar mosque next to such a tragic event.”

–Jose Ortiz, freshman history major
