Yesterday marked one year of the COVID-19 cloud that affected the world, our country, and Sarah A. Reed Children’s Center. It instantly impacted all of us in so many ways. In March 2020, after attending a plethora of Zoom meetings and hearing the technology needs that all five campuses were quickly experiencing, we immediately created the 150th Anniversary Technological Initiative. This critical effort incorporated the spirit of our rich history and the needs created by the pandemic, as we began to raise the philanthropic funds necessary to secure the technology we so desperately needed because of the uptick in remote learning and telehealth.
We set an initial $300,000 goal based on voiced needs and began the fundraising effort to secure the private funds necessary to address the immediate needs brought about by this pandemic.
I am happy to report that we have reached 70% of our goal and raised $208,000 thanks to you and our generous community of donors! But our work continues!
I wanted to share with you some of the progress we have made to date thanks to your support of us during this COVID-19 cloud. Our agency has always moved forward during challenging times, just like our foundress Sarah A. Reed did back in 1871 when she and her cadre of 30 women first began this organization.
Mark and Mallory, we will keep you posted as we continue to move forward, and if you have any friends who would like to join us in this historic effort please let me know.
Thank you for your commitment to this special place and the amazing work that is accomplished here every day for some of the most challenged children, adults and families in our region.
All of us here at Sarah Reed wish you and your family the very best as we move into the Spring 2021 season. “The sun will rise again.” www.sarahreed.org

Policy and discourse on family responsibilities revolve around obligations and rights of parenting. The purpose of this paper is to present a discussion on responsibilities of spouses so that they attain a work-life balance. It is possible to transmit physical, mental, and moral qualities from parent to child. The burden of responsibility for the moral character of a wayward child rolls back from one generation to another. Parents have the responsibility of retaining the thread of sensuality bequeathed by earthly ancestors.[this sentence is not really clear] For many adults, marriage constitutes a central interpersonal relationship that engages a person. Shared and flexible performance of household tasks associated with mutual commitment and diffusion of responsibility. High attraction and stability in solidary marriages presumes to provide a basis of security for spouses. High marital satisfaction and satisfaction with their spouses helping behavior report low levels of stress and physical wellness. [Ivy, you are using a lot of large words and it actually makes this less clear. Make it simple and clear.]
Spouses in personal and interpersonal relationships confront with conflict situations. Conflict in marriage institution arises due to child rearing differences, religious differences, sex relations, household chores, social activities, and interests. The repercussion of spousal conflicts is that they may an effect n their children, relatives, or even the society. A conflict situation can weaken a spousal relationship leading to separation or divorce. By the law of recurrence, it is possible to transmit qualities from grandparents to the grandchildren (De Lange, 2013). Some of the aspects of conflicts include aggression, hatred, fighting, or bitterness. All can admit that lamentable amount of domestic discontent and positive unhappiness grows out of the fact that the spouses have different ideas concerning a perfect marriage.
In the past, policies that focused on children and families operated on the assumption that families were synonymous with mothers. In the modern day, fathers’ role is crucial in the contribution of child development. The government supports and encourages father involvement. Fathers are potentially relevant to the discussion of parenting cultures. Fatherhood irrespective of the degree of involvement cares for their children and other parental roles effectively. It is the duty of both fathers and mothers to provide smooth, steady, and evident love to all children without showing any partiality. Parents should provide useful love during high and low moments of the day. Fathers according to Magne[omit] Bakke (2006) are psychological role models for their children, provide an economic resource for the family and play an active role in the care of the children. A mother is in charge of all domestic work in her household whether she is working or a single mother. ...
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.

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
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.

9. Sustaining Work With Fathers
"This government understands that fathers today want to be
more actively involved in bringing up their children and more
are doing so. A father-child relationship has a profound and
wide ranging impact on children that lasts a lifetime.
Research has shown that children with involved fathers develop
better friendships, more empathy, and higher levels of self-
esteem. They are also less likely to become involved with crime
or substance abuse."
Sarah Teather MP
Minister of State for Children and Families
10. This is not the Future
Fathers’ involvement in their children’s education
matters for children's educational, emotional and
social development, for both girls and boys.
Mothers’ involvement is not a substitute
