I think this is a generalization. I haven't seen any Indians (even Muslims) pray in public, mainly because not all Indians are Muslims (since you mentioned praying to Allah)... in fact, many at Cal Poly are not. Maybe you are confusing Indians with the Middle Eastern students? It doesn't bother me if they pray in public. To me, it's just like others smoking in public or preach christianity (some guy from Christian club read me a whole little book when I was studying for a test between classes).

But I do agree with you about the Israeli wall issue. It's more like a political issue and should be kept out of the campus (or all educational institutes).
