Who's Being "Accommodated" Here? I'm Betting It Ain't No Jew

In its decidedly finite "wisdom," York University says that that an unidentified student is well within his rights to refuse to do any classwork with chicks. The student claims that his religion precludes him from doing so, and university authorities, citing the Ontario Human Rights Commission, claims he must be "accommodated." For privacy's sake, the student's name has not been released to the media, but it has been surmised from his surname that he is either an Orthodox Jew or a Muslim. To which I say: given the current pecking order of victim groups in the province, there is no flipping way that such accommodation would be made for someone Jewish. And since other "accommodations" (essentially, sharia creep) have recently been demanded and made for Muslim students in these parts  (footbaths in University of Toronto washrooms; a public school mosqueteria), I'd be shocked if the student in question isn't a devout Muslim.
