Boston, The Heart of
Education & Higher Learning

Boston boasts one of the most dense collections of colleges and universities anywhere in the United States. Ther are 32 institutions of higher education within Boston's city limits, and another 33 in the Greater Boston area. What's more, many of Boston's schools are among the best in the nation. Institutions like Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Boston University make Boston a college town unlike any other.

Every September, the city's population swells by 130,000 as students from around the world flock to these premier colleges and universities. Among these students are between 10,000 and 15,000 Muslims who come from all over America, as well as from the Middle East, Africa and Asia to pursue undergraduate, graduate and professional degrees in the Boston area. These students bring a dynamic and vibrant flavor to the local Muslim community. They actively give their time and talents as volunteers and advance the image of Muslims through their contributions to their professional fields of study.

Due to its signature location, the ISB Cultural Center will further accentuate the educational character of the Campus High School Urban Renewal Area. This is just one great opportunity.
