The mission of the Muslim Student Association (MSA) is to cultivate a community for the Muslim students on campus through dialogue and educational outreach. Additionally, the MSA seeks to cultivate a community of coexistence amongst Manhattan University students where students feel safe discussing religion and current events. To this end, the MSA commits to facilitating educational forums about Islam and addressing the pervasiveness of Islamophobia that is perpetuated by miseducation and the media. The MSA aims to foster understanding and acceptance while working towards a common goal of inclusivity in the Manhattan University community.

### How to Join

The Muslim Student Association is open to all students. Sign up at the biannual activities and volunteer fair which happens at the start of each fall and spring semester, or contact the club directly at <muslimclub@manhattan.edu>.
