Subject: Best practice during Ramadan
Hi
I woud appreciate any good practice you might be able to share with me
with regard to muslim students during Ramadan. This year Ramadan will
co-incide with our welcome programme for new postgraduate students, and
normally during this period we offer welcome lunches and get togethers
with students and staff.
I have suggested that rather than a welcome lunch, and evening meal is
offered (preferably not serving alcohol)and that students should be
asked to provide details of any specific dietary requirements. Would
this be sufficient, or is there any better practice we could follow?
Regards
Sharon Hocking
Head of Student Services
