The first Muslim college in America has opened in Berkeley. The four-year liberal arts college aims to produce classic Islamic scholars firmly rooted in American culture. We talk with two of the college’s co-founders about their mission, and about what it means to be a Muslim American today.

Guests:

Shaykh Hamza Yusuf, co-founder of Zaytuna College

Imam Zaid Shakir, co-founder of Zaytuna College

Reza Aslan, contributing editor to the Daily Beast and author of books including "Beyond Fundamentalism" and the bestselling "No god but God: The Origins, Evolution, and Future of Islam"
