Brief Update on AIC Campus Sale

As-salamu alaykum,

We want to express our gratitude for your support in the petition to preserve the American Islamic College (AIC) and the Martyred AIC Masjid. Your commitment to this cause is greatly appreciated.

We'd like to share a condensed update regarding our response to AIC's recent communication. In their letter, AIC made several statements, but it left us with more questions than answers. Here's a summary of our key points:

1. Misinformation or Transparency?: We've asked AIC to clarify what they consider as misinformation in our campaign and emphasized the importance of transparency.
2. Leadership's Concern?: AIC mentioned deep concern among the Board of Trustees and administration, but we wonder who genuinely shares these concerns.
3. Board of Trustees' Engagement: We've raised questions about the Board's commitment and attendance at meetings, as suggested by Timothy during a town hall meeting.
4. Transparency in the Sale: Our concerns about transparency persist, especially regarding the masjid's fate.
5. Sale Price and Competence: We've questioned the decision to sell a valuable property at what seems to be a low price and the competence of AIC's leadership.
6. Rebuilding Donor Trust: Given past transparency issues, rebuilding trust with donors remains a challenge for AIC.

We will continue our efforts to seek answers to these questions and advocate for transparency throughout this process. Your support has been instrumental in shedding light on these concerns, and we will keep you updated on our progress.

Sincerely,

Congregants of the Martyred AIC Masjid
