The Center for Muslim Life is home to Muslim Life at Duke. Inaugurated in 2008, the facility includes a kitchen, a dining room, a library, wireless internet access and a media room with Blue Ray and cable TV, a beautiful porch overlooking a garden and plenty of space for prayer and worship. Students can use the Center space to write papers, study, hold class meetings, eat lunch, or enjoy some free time with friends. The Center for Muslim Life also provides the perfect place for student organizations to hold their regular meetings and social events. All members of the Duke community have card access to the Center.
