Interfaith

Amid the religious and cultural tensions that have held the spotlight recently, about 200 students united last night to participate in an Interfaith Fast for Peace and poetry reading in the Satow Room of Lerner Hall.

More than 200 students, family members, and area residents gathered in prayer as darkness fell Saturday to celebrate the breaking of a day of fasting, called an Iftar, beginning the Muslim holy month of Ramadan.
