The document analyzes the age ratings of 10 thriller films from the past 10 years assigned by the BBFC. It finds that the ratings ranged from 12A to 18, with 15 being the most common. Thrillers tend to contain graphic content unsuitable for younger audiences. Among subgenres, techno thrillers averaged the lowest rating (12A-15) while horror thrillers averaged the highest (18) due to containing more graphic violence. Psychological thrillers averaged 15, allowing some graphic elements but not as strongly as horror thrillers rated 18. The document compares its own psychological thriller and horror thriller films to these averages.

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

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
2. How are Thrillers classed by the
BBFC?
• I researched into 10 different thriller
films from the past 10 years to see
what the BBFC has rated them and if
this is similar to the thrillers I have
researched. They were a range in the
sub genres from horror thriller to
techno thriller but this is these are
the ratings that I found.
• As you can see all the thriller films
that I collected data from ranged
from a 12A rating to 18. This is likely
due to the fact that thriller films tend
to have a higher amount of graphic
content that tends to be unsuitable
for a younger audience.
• As you can see, the age rating that
was used most often was 15. This is
likely because thriller films, although
intense and exciting aren’t usually full
of highly gore-filled scenes and
violence unlike horror films.
3. Individual Sub Genres
This bar chart shows
the average age that
the particular sub
genre has as its age
rating from the films I
have researched. From
this you can see that
techno thrillers tend to
have the lowest age
rating and horror
thrillers have the
highest. This may be
because techno
thrillers tend to be
about technology
rather than action and
horror so the content
tends to be less bloody
and violent. This leads
to a lower age rating.
The psychological thriller genre has an average age rating
of 15 which means it does have graphic subject content
such as nudity, profanity and violence but it won’t be as
strong as that found in horror thrillers which are rated 18.
This is something that I will consider in my own
psychological thriller.
4. How do my films compare?
Hard Candy: 18
Psychological
Horror Thriller
Circle: 15
Psychological
Thriller
Would You
Rather: 15
Psychological
Horror Thriller
5. Two of the three films I analysed were
psychological horror thrillers but still
followed similar conventions to a pure
psychological thriller. Hard Candy was
rated 18 which is slightly higher than
average and Would You Rather was aged
15. Both of these ratings are near the
BBFC ratings 15 and 18 which, by looking
at my data previously, I can see are the
conventional ratings of thrillers by the
BBFC.
