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

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.

9. CONSUMER PROTECTION IN
MODERN TIMES
In the modern period, the previous traditional legal systems established by Indian
kings were replaced by new modern laws. The British introduced the English
Common Law in India along with other legislative measures for the public and in turn,
the consumers. Some of these legislations are as follows:
i. The Indian Contract Act, 1872
ii. The Sale of Goods Act, 1930
iii. Indian Partnership Act, 1932
iv. The Agricultural Produce(Grading and Marketing) Act, 1937
v. The Drugs Act, 1940
vi. The Drugs and Cosmetic Act 1940
These legislations proved to be immensely effective in saving the interests of the
consumers during the time of the British. The rules were now uniform across the
country and not arbitrary to the opinions of the various kings of the Ancient and
10. CONSUMER PROTECTION IN
MODERN TIMES
When India attained independence, it adopted the Anglo-Saxon system of administration of
justice. Hence, the previous legislation that was established by the British continued to function
in independent India.
Along with the existing legislation, due to the democratic nature of the Constitution, the prime
focus of the laws was the benefit of the general public, who were also consumers.
The new legislation enacted after Independence are as follows:
i. The Prevention of Food Adulteration Act, 1954
ii. The Essential Commodities Act, 1955
iii. The Monopolistic Restrictive And Unfair Trade Practises Act, 1969
iv. The Standard of Weights And Measures Act, 1976
v. The Bureau of Indian Standards Act, 1986
vi. The Consumer Protection Act, 1986
vii. The Trade Marks Act, 1999
viii. The Competition Act, 2002
11. CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT
(COPRA) 1986
❖ The Consumer Protection Act was passed in 1986
❖ It came into force from 1st July,1987.
❖ Main objectives of the Act are
❖ To provide better and all round protection to consumers
❖ To provide effective safeguards against different types of
exploitation such as defective goods, deficient services and unfair
trade practices.
❖ Under this Act, a three tier quasi-judiciary machinery has been
set up at District, State and National levels.
To assess the effectiveness of this act, a survey is conducted. The
findings of the survey are discussed at the end of the presentation.
12. MACHINERY UNDER THE
COPRA
❖ Under COPRA, three tier quasi-judiciary machinery has been
set up at District, State and National levels for
❖ Better protection of the interests of consumers
❖ To provide simple and speedy redressal of consumer disputes.
❖ The three courts are:

15. CONSUMER RIGHTS UNDER
THE ACT
There are six broad consumer rights defined as per the Consumer Protection Act, 1986. These are:
RIGHT TO SAFETY
The Consumer Protection Act defines this right as a protection against goods and services that are ‘hazardous
to life and property’. This particularly applies to medicines, pharmaceuticals, foodstuffs, and automobiles.
The right requires all such products of critical nature to life and property to be carefully tested and validated
before being marketed to the consumer.
RIGHT TO INFORMATION
This right mentions the need for consumers to be informed about the quality and quantity of goods being
sold. They must be informed about the price of the product and have access to other information specific to
the product that they wish to consume.
RIGHT TO CHOOSE
The consumer must have the right to choose between different products at competitive prices. Thus, the
concept of a competitive market where many sellers sell similar products must be established to ensure that the
consumer can actually choose what to consume and in what quantity. This is to avoid monopoly in the
market.
16. CONSUMER RIGHTS UNDER
THE ACT
RIGHT TO SEEK REDRESSAL
When a consumer feels exploited, they have the right to approach a consumer court to file a complaint. A
consumer court is a forum that hears the complaint and provides justice to the party that has been hurt. Thus,
if the consumer feels they have been exploited, they can approach the court using this right.
RIGHT TO BE HEARD
The purpose of this right is to ensure that the consumer gets due recognition in consumer courts or redressal
forums. Basically, when a consumer feels exploited, they have the right to approach a consumer court to voice
his complaint. This right gives them due respect that their complaint will be duly heard. The right empowers
consumers to fearlessly voice their concerns and seek justice in case they are exploited.
RIGHT TO CONSUMER EDUCATION
Consumers must be aware of their rights and must have access to enough information while making
consumption decisions. Such information can help them to choose what to purchase, how much to purchase
and at what price. Many consumers in India are not even aware that they are protected by the Act. Unless they
know, they cannot seek justice when they are actually hurt or exploited.

❖ Complaint must be filed within two years from the date of the cause of

22. CONCLUSION
Our survey was answered by a small sample size of 97 people all from middle class and upper middle class,
technically qualified at a minimum of graduation level and living in metros or Tier II cities. We got some very
shocking observations:
1. A good 27% of the population doesn’t check the ingredients of the food items it buys. The deciding factor in
that case could be: brand, taste, price or just a favourable prior experience.
2. There is adequate amount of awareness about the manufacturing time stamp of the product the consumers
are buying.
3. There is an alarming need of awareness about the different standardization programs, since more than
50% of the population does not check for the standardization marks on the products they are buying.
4. There is a reasonable amount of awareness about comparing different brands selling the same items.
5. Most middle class people buy essential items. However, at times, they do get carried away and end up
buying non-essential items.
6. Most people are well aware, well read and firm on their choice about the product they want to buy and
usually don’t get influenced by the shopkeeper or friends into compromising their choice or necessity.
7. While most people voice their concern to the shopkeeper when they see an inappropriate product being
sold, there is still a 38% population which does not voice their opinions to the shopkeeper. Therefore, there
is a need to make consumers aware about their responsibilities.
8. Overall, the consumer courts have been a successful initiative by the Government. Consumers are aware
23. SUGGESTIONS
❖ The Government should arrange various drives and campaigns to
increase the awareness among the consumers about their rights
and responsibilities.
❖ There should be a greater awareness among the consumers about
the Consumer courts and Redressal Agencies.
❖ The Consumer Court process should be simpler, to reduce the
instances of consumers not being able to make complaints due to
lack of resources / time / money etc.
