The OP pulled the wool over all of your eyes when he phrased his question the way that he did.
His suspicions that he'll be discriminated against based on his membership in the muslim student association are well-founded, and have nothing to do with being a muslim.
Many of you may not know this, but the
Muslim Student Association has a long history of its members being tied to criminal activities, mostly terrorism and anti-semitism.
Here are some of the MSA's greatest hits:
Anti-Semitism:
In a public letter written by
Mark Yudof, although UC President but writing in the capacity of a "private citizen", regarding the
Muslim Student Union's series of events titled "Israel: The Politics of Genocide," said "Permit me now to remove my cap and gown and to exercise my First Amendment rights as a private citizen. In my opinion, the title of the series is virulent, historically inaccurate and offensive to Jewish people everywhere."

The
Anti Defamation League, an organization dedicated to "combating anti-Semitism and bigotry of all kinds,"
[44] has described the Muslim Student Union as being "responsible for staging large events every spring featuring virulently anti-Semitic speakers."

I could go on, here, but if you've ever attended a campus where there's a lot of MSA activity, like I do (UCLA), your eyes will open pretty quick.

Terrorist Ties:
1. Anwar al-Awlaki, the al Qaeda cleric linked to terror plots from Fort Hood to Times Square and beyond. Awlaki, now a target for assasination by the U.S. government, was president of the MSA at Colorado State University in the mid-1990s.
2. Ramy Zamzam. Before his conviction in Pakistan last year for attempting to join the Taliban and kill American troops, Zamzam was president of the MSA's Washington, D.C., council.
3. Omar Hammami, a leader of the al-Shabaab terrorist group in Somalia, is another MSA alum. He was once president of the group's chapter at the University of South Alabama.
4. Abdurahman Alamoudi, who was national president of the MSA during the 1980s, was al Qaeda's top fundraiser in America and is currently serving a 23-year prison sentence.
I could go on here, too. There are a ton of MSA members that have been convicted or are suspected of terrorist involvement.

Something that many of you might not be aware of is that there are a lot of Jewish people in the medical community.
By some estimates, Jewish enrollment at the best universities is extremely disproportionate to the general population.
For example, every time I walk through the UCLA School of Medicine, I see at least 3 random Jewish guys (how do I know? They're wearing the little hat).
I'm not Jewish, nor am I muslim, but it were up to me, and I could potentially be discriminated against based on a club I'm in, I wouldn't tell anyone about my involvement in that club.
