UT Dallas Probes How 2 Korans Ended Up in Toilet

Authorities at the University of Texas at Dallas are investigating how two Korans ended up in a toilet bowl in a men's bathroom, The Texas Tribune reported. Larry Zacharias, the police chief at the university, said police had few leads. He believed that the incident did not reflect widespread discrimination against Muslim students, but, as students have suggested to him, a “one-time, stupid incident.”

Mohammad Syed, president of the Muslim Students Association at the university, said, "Given the current political climate and how Muslims are portrayed in the media, it makes certain individuals act in this hateful way."
