Becoming American – Keeping My Religion: Identity and 2nd Generation Immigrant College Students – Haroon Moghul

November 6, 2019 @ 6:00 pm - 7:00 pm

Free

Join Haroon Moghul, author of How to Be a Muslim: An American Story for his lecture “Becoming American – Keeping My Religion: Identity & 2nd Generation Immigrant College Students”.

College students in general are struggling with questions related to identity, dealing with authority figures, the mental stress of growing responsibility, and balancing it all with one’s social calendar. Being a second-generation immigrant in the wake of 9/11 and an American Muslim college student make this even more complicated.

The event is co-sponsored by the Bob Graham Center for Public Service.
