She puts on a hijab and a skirt before beginning prayer. She wears a hijab most of the time when she is on campus. “We as Muslims are required to do it, but based on culture some people don’t do it. It actually confuses some people,” she said. “I was forced to wear it since I was 7 years old, but as I got older it was my choice.” (Photo by Tori Schneider)
