Here’s another example of a MN institution bowing to Sharia Law.  Once again we shouldn’t be surprised that the Dhimmicrats in the Socialist state of Minnesota are promoting and adhering to Islam.

H/T Powerline

Katherine Kersten’s previously had written Sharia in Minnesota and today tells us about Mpls. Community & Technical College which is installing a foot washing basin for the schools Muslim students. 

Its officials say the college, a public institution, has a strict policy of not promoting religion or favoring one religion over another. “The Constitution prevents us from doing this in any form,” says Dianna Cusick, director of legal affairs.

But that seems to depend on your religion.

Where Christianity is concerned, the college goes to great lengths to avoid any hint of what the courts call “entanglement” or support of the church. Yet the college is planning to install facilities for Muslims to use in preparing for daily prayers, an apparent first at a public institution in Minnesota.

Separation of church and state is clearest at the college during the Christmas season. A memo from Cusick and President Phil Davis, dated Nov. 28, 2006, exhorted supervisors to banish any public display of holiday cheer: “As we head into the holiday season … “all public offices and areas should refrain from displays that may represent to our students, employees or the public that the college is promoting any particular religion.” Departments considering sending out holiday cards, the memo added, should avoid cards “that appear to promote any particular religious holiday.”

Last year, college authorities caught one rule-breaker red-handed. A coffee cart that sells drinks and snacks played holiday music “tied to Christmas,” and “complaints and concerns” were raised, according to a faculty e-mail. College authorities quickly quashed the practice.

They appear to take a very different attitude toward Islam. Welcome and accommodation are the order of the day for the college’s more than 500 Muslim students. The college has worked with local Muslim leaders to ensure that these students’ prayer needs and concerns are adequately addressed, Davis told me.

I wonder how the Dhimmicrats in Minnesota are going to respond with further demands of Sharia law.  Like the stoning of women or beating of a wife….next thing we’ll be hearing about is the Minnesota judge denying a divorce to a Muslim wife due to Sharia Law.
