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

5. FDC: An international Brazilian
business school
Although it was founded and has its headquarters in Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais (as well as offices in São
Paulo), FDC has been an international school since its beginning. One of the school’s main goals always has
been to achieve international reach, and the objective is part of its strategic, long-term plan. FDC attains and
fosters its international presence through agreements, partnerships and high-quality management- education
programs with faculty and with senior-level managers from institutions around the world.
International Alliances
During its first year of operation, FDC partnered with French business school HEC (Hautes Études
Commerciales). The relationship illustrates the school’s desire to provide an education with a global rather
than a local scope.
Today, the school has two strong alliances that connect it to the global business field: with the Kellogg
School of Management in the United States and with INSEAD in France. These relationships began in 1987,
when FDC worked with INSEAD to create the Advanced Management Program and the Strategic People
Management Program, which are still taught by FDC. INSEAD and FDC invite each other’s instructors to
participate in special courses; engage in student exchanges; and provide a strong, local contact in each of
the schools’ homelands.
In 1992, FDC and Kellogg School of Management decided to create what would become the Skills, Tools and
Competences Program - STC, which is still being taught as well. Today the Kellogg’s dean emeritus is the
chairman of FDC’s International Advisory Council.

7. School Networks
FDC is a member of two school networks: the BRICs Network and ENLACES (Latin American Business
Schools for Sustainable Economic Growth). The Brics Network is composed of FDC, The Indian Institute
of Management in India, Skolkovo in Russia and the Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business in China and
it works with “BRICs on BRICs – Capturing Growth in New Realities,” the first joint international program
on management scenarios and models of organizations from BRIC countries.
To create ENLACES, FDC signed an agreement in 2011 with three Latin American business schools:
Universidad de San Andrés in Argentina, Universidad de Los Andes in Colombia and Universidad de Chile.
ENLACES fosters business education and sustainable economic growth in the Latin America. The network
conducts an annual summit with businesspeople, government officials and representatives from educational
sectors to debate and present its results. ENLACES is also looking to expand to other business schools
in Latin American countries.

Research Partnerships
FDC understands the importance of academic research’s contribution to a dynamic business environment.
Through its research centers, FDC has reached out to international entities and schools to develop joint
research projects. One project is The Global Competitiveness Report with the World Economic Forum (WEF).
FDC’s Innovation Center conducts the research in Brazil. In similar fashion, the Center is responsible for
the Brazilian part of the World Competitiveness Yearbook, developed by IMD (the International Institute of
Management Development). FDC and Babson College (a U.S. school) are partners in the STEP Project.
Union is strength. Consequently,
union is a success strategy
both in nature and in corporations. 11

8. Cooperation Agreements
for Program Development
FDC offers many international programs as part of its educational solutions. Some are developed in
cooperation with business schools around the world; others are custom-made to meet the needs of clients
across the globe.
FDC’s international school partnership programs include the High-Performance Leadership Program, with
ESADE (Escuela Superior de Administración y Dirección de Empresas) Business School in Spain, and the
Partners for Excellence Program with Universidad de San Andrés in Argentina and Escola de Gestão do Porto
in Portugal. These programs enable Brazilian students to interact with students, teachers and cultures from
other countries and help strengthen FDC’s international image. In addition, FDC creates custom programs for
organizations around the world. FDC programs are taught at its facilities in Belo Horizonte and São Paulo.
FDC instructors also teach programs at clients’ locations if desired.
The Financial Times ranks FDC’s custom programs among the top 10 worldwide, emphasizing the following:
• Value for money
• Follow up
• Facilities
• Future use
• Program design
• Preparation
• New skills and learning
• Teaching methods and materials
• Aims achieved
• Faculty
