June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
2. Front Cover Process
• To demonstrate my understanding of the conventions used to create both a magazine cover and
double-page spread, I performed an experiment using Photoshop and InDesign (a software tool I have
not used in my work until very recently) to create both aspects of said magazine. As I was not bound
to replicate a pre-existing magazine, this allowed an extensive amount of freedom to create one of
my own for purely demonstrational purposes.
• The following tools and resources that were used to conduct this experiment are:
• Adobe Photoshop – The main and therefore most important element utilised for this experiment is
none other than Adobe Photoshop itself. Using a combination of both layers and text, each of the
elements that define a magazine are brought together harmoniously to create a singular product.
• Source image – The source image used to create the cover and, by extension, the main feature photo,
of this experimental magazine was that of a tree located in a nature reserve somewhere in Australia.
While I had originally intended to utilise images of different nature reserves for this purpose also, all
of them had been taken using the landscape format, rendering them unsuitable for use as a result.
Fortunately, however, as this image (pictured left) was formatted as a portrait, this made it
immediately suitable for my experiment’s requirements. Little to no alterations were made, save to
stretch the image out slightly.
• Sub-images – In order to create a sub-image or two that would link appropriately to the chosen
subject of my experiment, I immediately resolved to seek out images related to the topic of
conservation. These would subsequently be altered in PowerPoint in order to fit the conventions
expected in a magazine. The first, an image of St Nick’s Fields which appears to have been taken in the
style of a bird’s-eye view, has been altered to fit the shape of an oval, keeping the important subject
of the image (in this case, the nature reserve) at the centre while simultaneously omitting the
irrelevant elements from view. On the second, an unidentified figure (possibly a man or a woman) can
be seen litter-picking on a countryside path. I have structured this in the style of a square picture
frame to demonstrate the importance of litter-picking and how acts, however big or small they may
be, such as these can benefit the planet immensely.
• Colours – Across the entirety of the magazine, approximately three or four different colour schemes
are used to both cover certain aspects of the magazine and help them to stand out as much as
possible against the main source image’s backdrop. While I feel this worked in certain areas, there
were other areas, however, that I feel could be improved as certain elements of the text could be
perceived to be almost unreadable. The following colour schemes used for the text are: Brown
(rusted) for the dateline and masthead, yellow/orange, for the headline and kicker, purple for what is
(presumably) the anchorage and blue for the prices in both the UK and the US
• Fonts – Throughout the duration of this experiment, only one font was used to create the text that
dominates the entire front cover. While the colours ultimately helped to create a varied and diverse
approach to a different aspect across the magazine, it could likewise have benefitted from the use of
different fonts, such as Blackadder ITC or Calibri, with the size changed accordingly. Ultimately, the
singular font used to create the magazine’s text structure was Myriad Pro (Regular).
3. Reflection
• What elements of your experiments will you include in your final product?
• While the subject of my final magazine will be radically different, I plan to
use a picture of a sculpture (yet to be decided) as the feature article
picture of my magazine, which will be linked to my double-page spread. To
ensure I get as much coverage as possible, I plan to take a number of
images of said sculpture from different angles. These will be captured at
either one of the following: Yorkshire Sculpture Park, York Art
Gallery/Museum Gardens and The Hepworth Wakefield. I will also capture
an image of the entrance to one of these buildings to serve as a potential
sub-image as well as to fully document my visit.
• Unlike this experiment, I will attempt to include a diverse range of fonts
and colour schemes in order to reflect the ever-changing and meticulous
nature of sculpting. If I felt compelled to make such an aesthetic choice, I
would be more than prepared to create the masthead using a rusted-
green type colour, harkening back to a number of Barbara Hepworth’s
statues, particularly Two Forms which is currently on display in St Ives,
Cornwall.
4. Double Page Process
• To further understand the workings and conventions of a double-page spread, an
experiment was undertaken on InDesign (see comment on slide 2 for reference) in which I
would ”write” an “article” and find pictures appropriate to my experiment’s chosen subject
to be interspersed across the two-page spread.
• The following tools and processes used in this experiment are:
• Lorem Ipsum generator – To save time in actually writing the article itself, I utilised an
online generator composed mainly of non-existent Latin phrases, categorised under the
collective title of Lorem Ipsum. Subsequently, these words were copy and pasted onto
InDesign, thereby allowing me to experiment with the text more freely and alter the
opening letters where needed.
• Nature Reserve images – To ensure the text was fully spread out in the style of a
conventional magazine such as BBC Wildlife or National Geographic (albeit in a slightly less
professional structure compared to both), I would find pictures of various nature reserves
across York and, by extension, the Yorkshire county, on Google Chrome and incorporate
them into the InDesign document, by using the ”Place” option on the drop-down menu. To
ensure that the pictures did not obscure the text, however, I changed the text wrap of the
document with the help of an anonymous source thereby allowing the text to seamlessly
correspond with the pictures. The images displayed throughout the spread are as follows:
Hob Moor, Moorlands Nature Reserve, Askham Bog (presumably ) and, of course, St Nick’s
Fields itself.
• Adobe InDesign – The most important piece and the main source of software used to
conduct this experiment was none other than Adobe InDesign itself. To make sure I would
get the suitable double-page spread I required for my experiments, three pages had to be
created: One for the magazine cover (which ultimately went unused, due to the cover
being created in Photoshop) and two for the main spread. While only one was ultimately
used to create the article, with help from the Lorem Ipsum generator, both prominently
feature images of various nature reserves across the length of the page
5. Reflection
• What elements of your experiments will you
include in your final product?
– I am planning to include images of sculptures by
various artists, such as Barbara Hepworth and
Henry Moore, and have them spread across the
entire length of the double-page spread. To
ensure that they do not obscure the text
whatsoever, I will alter the text wrap from “none”
to ”text wrap bounding box” thereby allowing the
text to move accordingly with the position of the
pictures.
