Yogyakarta (Indonesia): Dozens of hijab-clad students were sitting in groups in the yard of Sanata Dharma Catholic University in Yogyakarta, seemingly in the middle of discussions about their studies.
They were joined by male and non-hijab-wearing female students in the campus located in Sleman, Yogyakarta. This idyllic view stands in contrast to the claims made by hard-line Muslim group Muslim People’s Forum (FUI), which recently forced another non-Muslim university Duta Wacana Christian University (UKDW) to take down billboards depicting a female student wearing a hijab. The group claimed the billboards were an insult to Islam.
