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

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

1. Donald Gunn’s 12 types
of advertising
Unit 15: Advertising Production
Learning Aim A
Omar Rasoul
2. Type one: Demo
• This is a visual demonstration of a
products capabilities and shows benefit
of the product.
• In this Cillit Bang advert we can see type
one in the scenes where we see the
product being sprayed to clean certain
stains and the demonstration when the
coin is put in the solution.
3. Type two: Show the problem
• In this type of advert you first, make it
clear that somethings not right in the
consumers life and you show this. It isn’t
enough to imply that there is a problem
the advert has to make it manifest and
make it clear. Then the advert almost
invariably introduces the solution which is
the product being sold.
• In this Dettol advert the problem is shown
through the stains and also when it zooms
into the stains to show the bacteria.
4. Type three: Symbolise the problem
• This format is similar to the previous type,
but this time you employ a “symbol,
analogy, or exaggerated graphic” to
represent the problem, therefore the
advert doesn’t show the real problem or
need to as it instead shows an
exaggeration of the problem or a symbol
meant to represent the need or problem.
• In the case of this advert the graphic/
symbol is seen when the camera zooms
into the stain and we can see the graphic
of the bacteria in a molecular form.
5. Type four: Contrast with competition
• In this type, the spotlight is on the
claim that your product is superior to
those of your competitors.
• In this case we can see that this print
advert for Fairy compares one
container of their brand has the same
worth and effectiveness of two no
name brand containers.
6. Type five: Exemplary story “Show the actual
benefit”
• These adverts create a narrative that helps give
the audience an image or visualisation of the
product’s benefits. In Donald Gunn’s own words,
the key is to create “a situation where you’d use
(the product) and be very glad for it.
• In this advert for ‘Ariel stain remover’ the
narrative created is that a stain occurs on a
family day out where the sheets they are sitting
on are stained and then the product is used to
remove the statin, and in this sense we are
shown a scenario where people would benefit
from the product and be glad they used it.
7. Type six: Benefit causes story
• These adverts use the benefit that the
story causes to tell a story that is usually
quite exaggerated. These adverts focus
less on the use of the product typically,
the advert doesn’t advertise the product
until the very end, setting it up as the
answer to why something is the way it is in
the story.
• In the case of this advert the benefit is
that the deodorant makes the man look
more cool and composed and this causes
the story because before hand he was
acting in a way that could be seen as
foolish.
8. Type seven: Presenter testimonial “tell it”
• This can take the form of a “real
person” testimonial, or it might be a
classic talking-head advert.
• This advert showcases this type
through the presenter who is walking
the audience through the product and
things like what its features are.
9. Type eight: Ongoing character & celebrities
• The viewer may remember the advert
just fine and yet forget which brand it
was for. The use of a recurring character
or celebrity, can help a brands identity
into the viewers brain.
• In the case of the adverts for ‘Old Spice’
the actor Terry Crews is a recurring
character in these adverts and what this
does is not only does it make the ads
more memorable but it also creates a
sense of continuity between them and
helps the viewer subliminally link the
actor with the brand.
10. Type nine: Show benefit through a symbol,
analogy, or exaggerated graphic
• Like the fifth type of advert, this type shows
the benefit, however this time, the advert
shows the benefit through a symbol or
exaggeration.
• In this advert the benefit of the product is
shown through an exaggerated graphic and a
symbol. The symbol is seen when she takes out
the strepsil and it transforms in to a first aid
kit with the plus symbol on it and then back
again, this links it to hospitals and the idea
that it is supposed to aid the person. The
exaggerated graphic is shown through the
cactus which disappears when the strepsisls
package is but next to it this shows that the
product will make your sore throat or
discomfort which is signified through the cactus
disappear.
11. Type ten: Associated user imagery
• Here, the advertiser showcases the
type of people it hopes you’ll
associate with the product. Often
these people will be hip, funny, or
good-looking people. But sometimes
the associated users are goofy or
geeky – it depends on the target
market.
• In the case of this advert a man is
shown and this associates the
product with the man making it clear
that it is a men’s product, in this
case a men’s hygiene product.
12. Type eleven: Unique personality property
• These spots highlight something
indigenous to the product that will
make it stand out. It could be the
country of origin (a sports car boasting
about German engineering) or a special
feature (product is water proof).
• In this advert the unique trait of the
product that is highlighted is that it is
able to be taken outside the house and
still play console level games, this is
shown through the scenes where we
see the product being used on the
plane and outside.
13. Type twelve: Parody or borrowed format
• This is when an advert parodies or
references a film or television property
linked to pop culture in order to advertise
the product in a way that would make it
engaging and enjoyable for people to
watch.
• This advert applies this format through the
numerous references and at parts parodies
of scenes from Back to the future to
create comedy and advertise the product.
In this advert this is shown when the
Toyota company man recreates the scene
from the first film when Doc Brown builds
a diorama in order to explain the situation
to Marty, in this advert he does this to
explain the product to them. Other things
such as the company man reciting lines
from the film is supposed to be comedic
for the audience.
