about  

The Ivy League is constituted by a cohort of universities that share many things, including social, intellectual and professional opportunities and challenges.  As Muslims at these institutions, we are subject to many of these same opportunities and challenges.  In the midst of contemporary American academic life in the Ivy League, many Muslims grapple with issues of identity and purpose.  This second "Ivy Muslim Conference" invites Muslims to explore, interrogate and discuss these issues, especially as they relate to their intellectual and spiritual lives.
