Muslim scholar quits Notre Dame position. Tariq Ramadan

Tariq Ramadan, a Muslim scholar whose visa was revoked days before he was to begin teaching at the University of Notre Dame, has given up further attempts to enter the country.

Ramadan, who lives in Switzerland with his family, had shipped his furniture to the South Bend, Indiana, campus and was already on the payroll of the university, where he was to teach about religion, conflict and peace-building, when his visa was suddenly revoked last August.
