"I can understand that the
Ayatollah has probably not even read
a free translation of the English version
of the book," Kidwai said.
The book has been available to
English-speaking Moslems in Britain
since September, he added. Moslems
should have taken action before the
publication of the book elsewhere,
Kidwai said.
Other Moslem students agree that
History Continue
Other incidents of hate and racism,
such as being "accidentally" bumped
in the lunch line, were things
Solomon witnessed during his USC
stay.
Solomon said during his two-year
tenure he never felt entirely comfortable
at USC.
"I think it would have been foolish
on my part, both as a black and a
graduate student, to feel comfortable,"
he said.
"I think the university has put
forth a sincere effort to receive black
students," Solomon said in response
to the increasing minority enrollment
figures. USC has done well in this
compared to any traditionally white

censorship is perhaps not the best
possible solution.
El-Komi, however, disagrees. "If
the book does insult a prophet or a
religion, I think it should be censored,"
he said.
History professor Kenneth Perkins
said, "Moslems believe that if their
religion is maligned, slandered or
degraded in some way that they have
an obligation to defend it."
The Farsi word for this doctrine is
"jihad," literally meaning "struggle,"
Perkins said.

university in the South, he said.
He never regretted his choice to attend
USC, but desegregation has impacted
his family in other ways.
Solomon said he regretted having put
his young children in an all-white
elementary school under freedom of
choice. If he had it to do over, he
would have waited until at least middle
school before placing them in that
kind of environment, he said.
"I really don't feel like a pioneer,"
Solomon said. It just so happens that
the times were right, he said.
"We find ourselves in certain
points of our lives, and we do what
we think we ought to do," Solomon
said. As a result, people find that to

He said it should be expected that
USC's Moslems would react differently
to the situation than Iranian
extremists.
"Khomeini is not representative,
not typical, of the world's Moslems,
though he may like to portray
himself as such," Perkins said.
Kidwai notes that it is important
for people interested in the controversy
to remember that Rushdie
no longer claims to be a Moslem, and
he in no way represents Islam in his
novel.
be noble, he said.
"I do think it's important now for
all of us adults, whether we consider
ourselves to be pioneers or whether
others consider us as pioneers, to
serve as positive role models for
children," Solomon said.
Solomon is the commissioner for
the S.C. Department of Social Services,
where he has been for the past
five-and-a-half years. This post has
enabled him to have a close relationship
with the Department of Social
Work at USC.
Solomon has been married for 35
years and has four children. The
youngest is currently a sophomore at
Florida State University.
