Academic Search Complete. EBSCO. Web. 16 Nov. 2010. This article focuses on the importance of the assimilation of the Islamic religion in liberal arts education. Living in a post 9/11 society, it is important to educate in order to correct global misunderstandings about the Islamic religion.

While Islam is a peaceful religion, the media has been shaping a negative stereotype of associating Muslims with violence. This article focuses on this understudied issue within Asia and attempts to incorporate this information to Chinese students in Eastern Asia.
