I really think you do need to read the article before commenting!

I don’t know which bells you are talking about and where and why can’t you hear them properly, but according the article, The Duke University *“bells announce chapel worship in the building on Sundays”. *​Clearly not the case of annual bell ringing Christmas or Easter. More than the Muslim Students, it is actually the University that seems to think that this move is a useful attempt at promoting religious pluralism (and perhaps reduce Islamophobia?).

muslims can go and sound a freakin trumpet for all I care but Azan is not comparable to that. Most non-Muslims and atheist/agnostic (which are growing in new generation hate the idea of religion - be it Jesus calling for church service or Isam). They dot want to hear the religion in the place of education. Azan is something sacred and throwing it around like that when you don’t actually have a need for it is terrible. I wouldn’t be surprised if you see those college kids impersonating azan/making fun of it and yea that’s freedom of speech. the idea is terrible from the get go.
