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

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19
Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
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.

2. What is a contra-indication?
A contra-indication is something that
prevents or restricts the way in which the
treatment is performed.
It is important that you can recognise a
contra-indication so to prevent any further
harm to the client or yourself, and to
prevent cross-infection and secondary
infection.
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
3. Contra-indications requiring medical
referral
Severe skin conditions – i.e. acne vulgaris, boils,
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
psoriasis, eczema, dermatitis
Eye infections – i.e. herpes eye infection
If the client has any of the above, you must
recommend that the client seeks medical advice
and treatment before proceeding with the
treatment. It is important that you do not just
send the client home, as they need to receive
treatment from their doctor in order to prevent
the condition from worsening and to alleviate the
condition.
4. Contra-indications that prevent
treatment
Bacterial infection- i.e. impetigo
Conjunctivitis
Inflamed skin
Eye diseases and disorders – i.e. conjunctivitis,
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
blepharitis, stye, cysts
Bruising
Allergy to adhesive/products
If the client has any of the above conditions you
can not proceed with treatment until the condition
has disappeared.
5. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Task
Why do you think it is important that we
check if the client has had any allergies to
tint or products in the past?
This is to ensure that we do not use any
products that may cause an allergic reaction.
The eyes are vital to any person; an allergic
reaction would be very uncomfortable and
may affect the vision short term.
6. Procedure to follow if you suspect that the
client has a contra-indication
It is important that you do not diagnose any of these
conditions as it is unprofessional and may worry or upset
the client unnecessarily. If you suspect that the client has
a contra-indication, you should:
1. Inform the client that there is a possibility of a contra-indication
and explain that you cannot carry out the
treatment as it may cause harm to the client.
2. If the client wishes for the treatment to be carried out
they must bring a doctors note or wait until the condition
has disappeared.
3. Reassure the client and offer an alternative treatment that
Clare Hargreaves-Norris
is not contra-indicated if possible.
4. Make a note on the record card.
8. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Acne vulgaris
This condition is linked to the
hormones of the body and is
most common in teenage years.
It is recognised by:
inflamed skin
papules and pustules
comedones
open pores
seborrhoea (greasy shine)
Acne vulgaris is due to the
influence of the androgen
hormone at puberty and can
only be treated once medical
approval has been obtained.
9. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Boil
A red, raised, painful
lump will appear
around a hair follicle
and then pus will
develop. It will
extend deeply into the
skin and so therefore
may cause scarring
once the boil has
healed.
10. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Dermatitis
A localised inflammatory skin disorder
in which the skin becomes red, swollen
and itchy with the possibility of
blisters and pus. The cause of
dermatitis is irritation of the skin due
to the action of a substance- nickel,
plants and perfumes are common
irritants. If this was present in the
eye area you would not be able to treat
the client. If they are not already
receiving treatment recommend that
they seek GP advice.
11. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Eczema
Reddening of the skin with
swelling, dryness, itching,
cracks and blisters. Quite
often the skin leaks a
fluid and this then forms
scabs. The cause may be
an internal or external
irritant or may be genetic.
12. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Psoriasis
Red patches of skin appear
covered by scale like waxy
cells. If the area is
scratched then bleeding will
occur, removing the scales
and then secondary
infection may occur. No real
cause is known, although it
is thought to be hereditary
or stress related.
13. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Herpes eye infection
Symptoms can include some or all of the
following on the side of the affected eye:
head and facial pain, a rash, ulcers, swollen
eyelids, a red & painful eye, crusting of
the eyelids and visual disturbances.
The same viruses are normally responsible
for a wide range of conditions, including
chickenpox, cold sores and shingles.
Medical advice must be sought and the
client may be recommended to an eye
doctor. As this condition lasts 2-3 weeks,
the eye usually responds very well to
treatment. Eye drops and creams, and,
very occasionally, tablets may be given to
help the eye to heal.
15. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Impetigo
A highly contagious
inflammatory infection
which:
initially appears as red,
itchy patches/spots
the skin then breaks and
small blisters appear
honey coloured crusts then
develop which will leak
serum and spread daily
16. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Conjunctivitis
This is caused by inflammation
of the mucous membrane that
covers the eye and lid. This
causes the eye to become red,
sore and bloodshot. A pussy
discharge is often produced
which causes the eyelids to
stick together. It often feels
gritty to the person and is
contagious. Quite often it is
due to a bacterial infection
occurring, alternatively it could
be due to a viral infection.
17. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Inflammation
This is a raised area of the skin that is quite
often accompanied by a form of skin
irritation. It is important that you do not
treat as it could worsen the condition and
cause the client discomfort.
18. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Fungal infection
A fungal infection of the body is
called tinea corporis, which is
more commonly known as
ringworm. A highly infectious
condition, it can easily spread and
is recognised by:
firstly small red pimples appear
a flat scaly ring-like lesion forms
this heals from the centre
outwards
19. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Blepharitis
The eyelid rims are red and irritated, they
burn and itch and they may have an oily
discharge or scaly skin around them. This
is sometimes referred to as psoriasis of
the eyelids. While over-the-counter
treatments are available, it is advisable to
seek professional help the first time you
experience the condition.
The pharmacist or eye care practitioner may be able to supply the
client with medicated pads specifically designed for this or ointments
containing antibiotics. It is important that treatment is received as
soon as possible to reduce the risk of having the infection spread and
cause more serious conditions.
20. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Skin allergies
The symptoms of an allergy would be
redness, swelling or itching and in severe
cases blisters may develop. A person can
develop an allergy at any time.
21. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Iritis
This is an inflammatory condition
affecting the iris, (the coloured
part of your eye). It can be
associated with other inflammatory
conditions of the body, for example
arthritis, but in most cases the
cause remains unknown. It would be
recognised by aching, painful red
eye, small pupil, blurred vision and
sensitivity to light.
It is important that this condition is
treated by an eye doctor.
22. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Dry eyes
The glands that keep the surface of the
eye wet, under secrete resulting in dry
eye. The symptoms are:
gritty, scratchy or foreign body sensation
itching
burning
discomfort or pain
often the eye is completely normal to look
at
There are many causes, for example age related changes, dry, dusty
working conditions and central heating. The client must see their GP for
treatment which consists of artificial tear drops for use during the day
and possibly some ointment to use last thing at night.
23. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Stye
This condition affects the
eyelid and is recognised as
a red, inflamed lump on
the eyelid, which can cause
discomfort. It is caused
by a bacterial infection of
the sebaceous gland or
eyelash hair follicle and
pus may be present. If
the client has a stye you
can not apply artificial
eyelashes.
24. Clare Hargreaves-Norris
Watery eyes
Over activity or a blockage of the tear duct
causes the eye to water frequently. This can
be uncomfortable for the client and prevents
the artificial lash treatment from being
carried out.
