Univ of Oklahoma campus mosque is not enough so Muslims given mini-mosque in library

Maeen Alqohaif used to pray between the narrow bookshelves in a corner of the Bizzell Memorial Library, where stray students wandering by posed a constant distraction.

Until, that is, the mechanical engineering junior discovered a better location for the five-times daily prayer required of Muslims: the reflection room — a classroom-sized, lamp-lit, quiet space designated solely for prayer.

The University of Oklahoma has opened a new reflection room to host Muslim students wishing to pray during the day, giving them a sense of belonging and welcome.

I wonder how well a Christian prayer room would have gone over.  :shrug:

But... dare to put a Christmas creche in another corner of that same library, and see how long before it's removed with the cries of "establishment" of religion!
