This is like:
A. Throwing rocks at a hornets nest.
B. Poking a tiger with a stick.
C. Making fun of liberals.
D. All the above.

I can't wait to see what religious group ponies up the money & what legal group jumps out to fight it.

It will not turn-out well.

"UVSC has about 30 Muslim students enrolled. Many desire a private place to pray five times a day, Walton said....
"But the students have no privacy and they have no place to go pray," he said."

So. Does this mean that non-Muslim students/faculty/employees will get booted out of the room 5 times a day so that it can be a private place for Muslims to pray?

Will this turn into another Salt Lake Airport taxi driver's break room controversy and end up with it being shut down?
