i've spent 16 years in the pakistani school system (including college).
and ofcourse, beefing up security does not mean assigning a security guard to every student but atleast they can hire more security/cameras/metal detectors within the college perimeter? KC is a resourceful college and they can certainly afford to secure the college area atleast.
I understand their reaction but then where does it stop? do we stop offering fashion courses, do we tell women not to laugh too loud in public?, not to wear makeup, not to enroll in music classes? they thrive on fear and there should be no giving in to them...you dont negotiate with terrorists... (im so ashamed in quoting george bush here :/ )
Were you a teacher or an administrator for 16 years? I am just curious. The whole concept of hijaab or being conservative in fashion and clothing is not to attract too much attention from other men except husband or dad. If they want us to follow that, don't you think if is in our best interest? Why would anyone give their life in order to make us follow Islam- the way it is?
