Clearly for many in the media, Iftikhar became Islam's ‘It guy,’ a sought-after interview or commentator for those seeking the American-Muslim perspective…
People were really electrified by his talk …. everyone loved him.
After you hear him speak about the work that he is doing, you will realize that if you bring your passion and your conviction and your caring to anything that you do in your life, you will be successful…as Arsalan has been successful…
Arsalan Iftikhar is able to cut to the heart of an issue. His speech was enthralling, crisp, and extremely thought-provoking. We hope to bring him back again to further inspire our faculty, students, staff, and broader community.
