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

2. • First aid is the provision of initial care for
an illness or injury. It is usually performed by
non-expert, but trained personnel to a sick or
injured person until definitive medical
treatment can be accessed.
3. Characteristic of a Good First Aider
• GENTLE-should not cause pain
• OBSERVANT-should notice all signs
• RESOURCEFUL-should make the best use of things at hand.
• TACTFUL-should not alarm the victim.
• SYMPATHETIC-should be comforting
• EMPATHETIC-has the ability to understand the feelings &
emotions of the victim.
• RESPECTABLE-so they will believe & trust you as a first-
aider.
• CHEERFUL-inspires & develops confidence to the victim
• ONGOING EDUCATION-must learn how to operate new and
improved equipment and get re-certified every few years
based on the requirements in a state.
5. • Bloody Nose - A nosebleed occurs when blood
vessels inside the nose break. Because they’re
delicate, this can happen easily.
• What to do immediately: Lean slightly forward and
pinch your nose just below the bridge, where the
cartilage and the bone come together. Maintain the
pressure for 5 to 15 minutes. Pressing an ice pack
against the bridge can also help.
• What not to do: Tilt your head back. “You may
swallow blood, and potentially some could go in
your lungs,” says David Markenson, M.D., chair of
the American Red Cross Advisory Council on First Aid
and Safety.
6. • Object in Eye - Anything that gets in your eye,
whether it’s a speck of sand or a chemical, can cause
pain and could damage the cornea.
• What to do immediately: Try to dislodge a small
particle by blinking several times. If it’s not budging,
rinse the eye by holding the lid open under a
running tap (if possible, remove contact lenses first).
• What not to do: Never rub your eyes. Even a tiny
piece of dirt can scratch the cornea and cause an
infection. Never try to remove an object that’s
deeply embedded—leave that to the professionals.
7. • Burn - First-degree burns produce redness;
second-degree burn cause blisters; third-degree
burns result in broken or blackened skin.
• What to do immediately: Place the burn under
cool running water, submerge it in a bath, or
apply wet towels. Loosely bandage a first- or
second-degree burn for protection.
• What not to do: Put an ice pack on major burns.
“Ice can damage the skin and worsen the injury,”
says Markenson. Don’t pop blisters. Don’t apply
an antibiotic or butter to burns; doing so can
breed infection.
8. • Sprain - Sprains occur when the ligaments
surrounding a joint are pulled beyond their normal
range. Sprains are often accompanied by bruising and
swelling.
• What to do immediately: Alternately apply and
remove ice every 20 minutes throughout the first day.
Wrapping the joint with an elastic compression
bandage and elevating the limb may also help. Stay
off the injury for at least 24 hours. After that, apply
heat to promote blood flow to the area.
• What not to do: Work through the pain, says Art
Hsieh, chief operating officer for the San Francisco
Paramedic Association, or you risk doing more
serious damage, like tearing the ligament.
