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 French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

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.

3. a). Present simple whit future meaning
a. A future tense is not used in a time clause or conditional clause. The
meaning of the clause is future, but the simple present tense is used, e.g.
4. Ejemplo, present simple whit future meaning
Linda will leave soon. Before she leaves, she is going to finish her work.
As soon as the taxi arrives, we will be able to leave for the airport.
I will wait until she comes.
I will go to bed after I finish my work.
I will go to bed after I have finished my work.
6. b).Future “be about to” + infiniteve ¡, verbos
+ infiniteve
Infinitive is a grammatical term used to refer to certain verb forms that exist
in many languages. As with many linguistic concepts, there is not a single
definition applicable to all languages. The word is derived from Late Latin
infinitivus, a derivative of infinitus meaning "infinite". Infinitives are used
mostly as non-finite verbs.
7. Ejemplos, Future “be about to” + infiniteve ¡, verbos + infiniteve
English has infinitive constructions which are marked (periphrastically) for aspect: perfect,
progressive (continuous), or a combination of the two (perfect progressive). These can also be
marked for passive voice (as can the plain infinitive):
(to) eat (plain infinitive, active)
(to) be eaten (passive)
(to) have eaten (perfect active)
(to) have been eaten (perfect passive)
(to) be eating (progressive active)
(to) be being eaten (progressive passive)
(to) have been eating (perfect progressive active)
(to) have been being eaten (perfect progressive passive, not often used)
9. c).Present perfec simple +
“just/for/since”
Para que el verbo este en pasado a los regulares se les añade d,o ed
depende de la regla, y los irregulares tienes que estudiartelos el pasado de
do - es did,speak es spoken etc.Y es lo mismo para todas las personas.
Se usa el pasado simple para acciones finalizadas,verbos regulares lived,
acaba
en e añade d,worked,played etc
10. Ejemplo, present perfec simple + “just/for/since”
Afirmativa :
I worked
you worked
he,she,it worked
we worked
you worked
they work
negativa
I didn´t work
you didn´t work
he,she,it didn´t work
we didn´t work
you didn´t work
they didn´t work
interrogativa
Did I work ?
Did you work ?
Did he,she,it work ?
Did we work ?
Did you work ?
Did they work ?
12. d). Reported speech
When do we use reported speech? Sometimes someone says a sentence, for example "I'm
going to the cinema tonight". Later, maybe we want to tell someone else what the first
person said.
13. Ejemplos, Reported speech
You look very nice. = I told him he looked very nice.
He's working in Siberia now. = She told me he was working in Siberia now.
Polly has bought a new car. = She said Polly had bought a new car.
Jo can't come for the weekend. = She said Jo couldn't come for the weekend.
Paul called and left a message. = He told me Paul had called and had left me a
message.
I'll give you a hand. = He said he would give me a hand.

16. Ejemplos, Past tense of” there is there are
to talk about the past:
He worked at McDonald’s. He had worked there since July..
He was working at McDonald’s. He had been working since July.
to refer to the present or future in conditions:
He could get a new job if he really tried.
If Jack was playing they would probably win.
and hypotheses:
It might be dangerous. Suppose they got lost.
I would always help someone who really needed help.
and wishes:
I wish it wasn’t so cold.
In conditions, hypotheses and wishes, if we want to talk about the past, we always use the
past perfect:
I would have helped him if he had asked.
It was very dangerous, What if you had got lost?
I wish I hadn’t spent so much money last month.
18. f). Past continuos
The past continuous is used for actions that occurred at a specific time in the past. As the
present continuous, is formed with the verb "to be" and the gerund.
Para formar el pasado continuo se utiliza el verbo auxiliar "to be" y el gerundio (infinitivo +
"-ing") del verbo. El verbo auxiliar "to be" está en el pasado simple, pero ten en cuenta que
"to be" es un verbo irregular.
19. Ejemplo, Past continuos
I was talking. (Estaba hablando.)
He was eating. (Estaba comiendo.)
They were learning. (Estaban aprendiendo.)
•I was not [wasn't] talking. (No estaba hablando.)
•He was not [wasn't] eating. (No estaba comiendo.)
They were not [weren't] learning. (No estaban aprendiendo.)
21. g). Introductioin to the passive voice
Although the passive voice is less common than the active voice, there are several good
reasons to sometimes use the passive. On this page we look at how to construct the passive
voice and when and why to use it. (For a basic explanation of the difference between
active and passive, please see voice.)
22. subject
auxiliary verb
be
main verb
past participle
by
I am employed by Apple.
You will be woken at 6.
It will have been finished by then.
We have been notified by Head Office.
You are being transferred next week.
They will be paid.
Ejemplo, Introductioin to the passive voice
24. h). Present simple passive
It is mainly used to emphasize action rather than who does it. In Spanish we have
several forms of passive as shown in the example. In English we use the same
structure in both cases.
25. EJEMPLO, Present simple passive
AFIRMATIVA
SUJETO + AM / IS / ARE + PARTICIPIO + RESTO DE FRASE
El árbol está hecho de billetes.
The tree is made of bills.
Se venden animales en esta tienda.
Animals are sold in this shop.
Negativa
SUJETO + 'M NOT / ISN'T / AREN'T + PARTICIPIO + RESTO DE FRASE
El árbol no está hecho de billetes.
The tree isn't made of bills.
No se venden animales en esta tienda.
Animals aren't sold in this shop.
