The Guardian newspaper reports that college professors and staff in Britain may soon be asked to spy on “Asian-looking” and Muslim students they suspect of involvement in Islamic extremism. The paper obtained an 18-page document that reveals Britain’s Department of Education has drawn up a series of proposals on how the spy program should work. Teachers are likely to be asked to report suspicious students to a special branch of the government. Wakkas Khan, the president of the Federation of Student Islamic Societies, said the program is potentially the widest infringement of the rights of Muslim students ever in the country.
