Tolerance at Houston's Baptist university

How tolerant of my alma mater:

"Mainly the purpose was to clear up some misconceptions about Islam," said Khalid Bhatti, a member of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community and graduate student at the University of Houston. "Islam is portrayed negatively, so we're just here to clear those misconceptions up. There are so many negative acts done in the name of Islam and no one speaks out against it. We're here to do that and I think we were successful in accomplishing that."

Except, the Chronicle coverage didn't address any of that.
