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

Prepare the learner: Start the class with introducing clouds. Have students
brainstorm on what a cloud is and what the purpose of a cloud is. Encourage
questions. Ask them when they see dark clouds; what do they expect the weather
to be like. If they know, then have them pretend they are running for cover. If the
clouds are very light and the sun is shining: what would this weather be like.
Have them pretend like they are sun bathing.
Provide the learning experience: At the beginning of the lesson, students will
be questioned on what they know about clouds. After the discussion is complete,
students will then get on WebQuest using zanul.com and go to the appropriate site
that I have created. Students will be grouped into three’s. Students will research
what clouds are. Once they have completed their assignment, they will then make
a post on Facbook about what clouds are and then have other students comment
on their post. Students are required to post a comment on at least one original
post. Students will then stay in their groups and create a wiki about clouds on
wikispaces.com Students will get to present their wiki to the class.
6. R Require Learner Participation In-Class and Follow-Up Activities So Learners Can Process
the Information: Students will be creating a wiki so that
learners process what they learned on the WebQuest. For
follow-up activities, students will read the posts from other
students on their Facebook post about clouds. This way,
students can receive new information from other students.
E Evaluate and Revise Before, During, and After Instruction: Before instruction,
students may be familiar with what clouds are, but do not know
exactly what the purpose of a cloud is. During instruction,
students will explore the various websites on the WebQuest to
come up with information on what exactly is a cloud. After the
instruction, students will have the knowledge of what clouds
are and they will be able to make a wiki on wikispaces.com to
present to the class.
Assess Learner, Media, and Methods: Using Facebook posts
and the group’s wiki, I will assess the knowledge that the
students have obtained.

days. See if students can brainstorm about how the clouds help them determine
weather.
Provide the learning experience: To start the lesson, we as a class will explore
what we have learned on the previous two days and look at the clouds we have
learned about. We will first look at a cirrus cloud and determine what weather
comes from them. Next, we will look at the alto clouds and discuss the weather
we might see from them. Finally, we will look at stratus clouds and determine the
weather we would see from them. After we have completed this, we will go to
Twitter and follow @TheWeatherChannel to look at all the different clouds that
they have tweeted. Students are encouraged to reply, but it is not required. We
will then break into groups of three or four and start working on our robots. The
robots are a simple, but functioning robot on the three types of clouds that we
learned about. Students are allowed to be crafty with their robots and decorate
however they would like. Stations will be set up with different arts and crafts.
For example, there will be a recycling station to start their robot, a station with
pipe cleaners, popsicle sticks, etc. After students have completed their robots,
they will show the class their creations.
12. R Require Learner Participation In-Class and Follow-Up Activities So Learners Can Process the

Prepare Materials and Environment: Make sure all students know how to get
on PowerPoint and show them how to use it.
Prepare the learner: We will go over everything we have learned so far.
Students will have previous knowledge of where the clouds are located. Provide
the learning experience: Students will work in a class group about the location
of each cloud. We will do a group activity altitude means. We will discuss about
where the clouds are based on altitude. I will go over with the students that
altitude means the height of an object in relation to the Earth. We will do
examples of what altitude means by using objects as the clouds and the floor as
the Earth. The further away the object, the higher the cloud, the closer the object
is to the floor, the lower the cloud is to the Earth. The highest cloud away from
the Earth is cirrus, the middle cloud from Earth is alto clouds, and the closest
clouds to Earth are stratus. Students will be in groups of two and then go to the
computers to create a PowerPoint presentation of cloud location. After they have
completed this, students will then work individually to create Poster using
PowerPoint with the location of each cloud studied. Students will get to present
their posters to the class.
15. R Require Learner Participation In-Class and Follow-Up Activities So Learners Can Process the
Information: The in-class activities that the students will use are: the group
activity and the group PowerPoint presentation to process the information they
learned about the location of clouds. For the follow-up activity, students will
create their own poster based of the cloud location of each cloud we are
studying.

create the cloud observation identifiers. Show example of how to use a blog and
websites to research character education to teach about clouds.
Prepare the learner: Review everything that we have learned all week. Talk
about the things that most interested the students. Talk about how they are going
to be able to identify their own clouds today and that they get to discuss them
using their phones.
Provide the learning experience: Students will first research how teach clouds
through character education. Students will work individually on a blog about
clouds. They will take the knowledge that they have learned and place it and
publish it on blogger.com. Students will then comment on one other blog.
Students will use the critical part of character education. By doing this, they will
positively critique the blog. They will offer any suggestion or comments that
could help the blog become better. Once we have completed this, students will
then get to create their own cloud observation identifier. Students will take a
popsicle stick and glue an open square onto it. Then they will get to chose from a
various assortment of different cloud pictures and glue them onto their identifier.
After they have completed this, we will go outside and observe the clouds.
Students will take their phones out with them and we will use Zello to discuss
what clouds we see. If students do not have a phone, they will buddy up with
someone who does.
18. R Require Learner Participation In-Class and Follow-Up Activities So Learners Can Process the
Information: The in-class activities that students will use to process the
information will be creating the group blog. The follow-up activity will be using
the cloud observation identifier and discussing what they see.
