Presentation from Salesforce.org Higher Ed Summit 2018 by: Sandra Richtermeyer, UMass Lowell, and Lori Dembowitz, UMass Lowell.
This session will present an example of how one campus (University of Massachusetts Lowell) developed a collaborative campus ecosystem by creating curricular and co-curricular experiences to engage a stakeholder community. Through a connected campus model, undergraduate students, graduate students, faculty, university technology leaders, alumni, the business community and employers participate in a comprehensive initiative that significantly enhances student learning and career preparation. Examples presented in this session will include use of Trailhead to facilitate guided learning paths and help students achieve educational and professional development goals based on their stage of degree program completion. In addition, the implementation of a Salesforce Ambassador and Trailblazer model will illustrate how students learn from each other, their instructors and technology leaders in the Connected Campus and prepare themselves for internships, co-ops and full-time placement after graduation. Ideas for creating a comprehensive interactive event with participation from employers, technology executives, and alumni will be discussed. Examples of developing interdisciplinary faculty teams to further integrate the Trailhead program into the business curriculum will be described. Illustrations for measuring program deliverables and assessing performance with this model will also be discussed.

Implementing a Comprehensive Data Collection Strategy to Support Student SuccessSalesforce.org
Presentation from Salesforce.org Higher Ed Summit 2018 by: Katie Connor, Career Development, Bailey Aukes, Career Communications & Analytics Specialist, and Kelly Hamilton, Career Operations Coordinator.
Over the past 3 years, the Career Development Office at the Leeds School of Business has built a comprehensive 4-year data collection strategy leveraging the integration of Qualtrics and Salesforce. This approach has allowed us to better understand student career interests and challenges in order to customize career programming, student communication, and employer outreach. From an initial focus on senior progress and outcomes, we expanded data collection efforts through the implementation of the Leeds Personal Business Plan starting in the freshman year. This Plan is integrated into classroom assignments and updated by all students throughout their college career. As a result of these efforts, we now have over 50,000 data points, ranging from first-years through seniors, regarding company/industry interests and career development needs. Our strategy has improved both student and employer engagement, increased student response rates, and consistently led to an over 95% knowledge rate of senior outcomes. Attendees at this session will learn how the powerful combination of Qualtrics integration with Salesforce can be used to develop a comprehensive picture of student interests and needs. Participants will learn how they can leverage this information to develop targeted communication and intervention strategies to support student success.

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.
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.
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.

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
