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 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.

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.
2. Japanese adjectives
Just like English adjectives, Japanese adjectives give information about the
noun or pronoun s definition, on the other hand, Japanese adjectives also
function as predicates to a sentence (giving a property to the subject) - where
the adjective takes the verb position of the sentence with です(desu) .
adjectivenoun は です。
noun adjective.
wa desu
スミスさんの うち は おおきいです。Ex.
Mr. Smith s house is big.
In the above example sentence, おおきい(ookii) means just not big but is big .
is
sumisu san no uchi wa ookii desu
3. adjective noun+
They also function as noun modifiers - where the adjective is adjacent to the
noun.
Types of adjectives in Japanese
Ex. おおきい うち+
ookii uchi
= a big house
However, there are two types of adjectives in Japanese :
i- adjective and na- djectives .
The and are their last syllables when they modify nouns.
i-adjectives na-adjectives
i na
Ex. : i-adj. おおきい うち = a big house
o o k i i uchi
Ex. : na-adj. しずかな こうえん = a quiet park
shizukana kouen
4. This first group is the i-adjectives, so called because they all end with an い i .
When an i-adjective is placed in front of a noun, it modifies the noun directly,
and when placed at the end of the sentence, its becomes a predicate with です.
i-adjectives
おおきい です
To change an i-adjective into it s negative form, replace the final い i with
くない ku nai as in the predicate, thus you can state as is not [i-adjective] .
As Predicate: Present Affirmative As Modifier
おおきいbig
ookii desu ookii
noun+
あたらしい です あたらしく ないですnew

As Predicate: Present Affirmative As Predicate: Present Negative

スミスさんの うちは おおきいです。
sumisu san no uchi wa ookii desu
Ex.
Mr. Smith s house is big.
これは おおきい うちです。
kore wa ookii uchi desu
This is a big house.
Ex. スミスさんの うち は あたらしく ないです。
sumisu san no uchi wa atarashiku naidesu
Mr. Smith s house is not new.
5. na-adjectives
The second group, the na-adjectives, are followed by な na when used to
modify nouns, and by です when used to predicate a sentence. However, when
you don t have to modify nouns with them, you must remove な na just as
predicates to a sentence.
しずか です
To change an na-adjective into it s negative form, simply replace です desu
with ではありません dewa arimasen .
As Predicate: Present Affirmative As Modifier
しずかなquiet
shizuka desu shizukana
noun+
しずか です しずか ではありませんquiet
shizuka desu
→
As Predicate: Present Affirmative As Predicate: Present Negative
shizuka dewa arimasen
この こうえんは しずかです。
kono kouen wa shizuka desu
Ex.
This park is quiet.
これは しずかな こうえんです。
kore wa shizukana kouen desu
This is a quiet park.
X
この こうえんは しずかなです。X※
※
この こうえんは しずかではありません。
kono kouen wa shizuka dewa arimasen
Ex.
This park is not quiet.
X
6. Additional Notes
The negative form of i-adjective いいです (iidesu) becomes よくないです (yoku
naidesu) because the original word for good in Japanese is よいです (yoi desu).
For some historical reason, its negative form follows the original word instead.
いい です よく ないですgood
ii desu
→
As Predicate: Present Affirmative As Predicate: Present Negative
X
X yoku naidesu
よい です
yoi desu
→
We also have negative forms with modifying nouns for both i and na adjective.
However, we do not discuss them in this lesson and we ll go over them later on
the textbook. Therefore, we make negative sentences by changing predicate
ending です (desu) into ではありません (dewa arimasen).
これは おおきい うちです。
kore wa ookii uchi desu
This is a big house.
これは しずかな こうえんです。
kore wa shizukana kouen desu
This is a quiet park.
Ex. これは おおきい うち ではありません。
kore wa ookii uchi dewa arimasen
This is not a big house.
これは しずかな こうえん ではありません。
kore wa shizukana kouen dewa arimasen
This is not a quiet park.
7. na-adjectives end with い i
There are few na-adjectives which end with い i just like i-adjective. For
example, ゆうめい (yuumei) that means famous ends with い i , but it s in the
group of na-adjective. Here s how to make a distinction between the groups :
famous ゆうめい です
As Predicate: Present Affirmative As Modifier
ゆうめいな
yuumei desu yuumeina
noun+
You have to focus the last two vowels of an adjective
In the Japanese sound system, ei vowel combination becomes ええ ee in a
normal speech speed, not as written as えい ei . Therefore any adjectives end
with this ei combination are defined as na-adjectives.
pretty きれい です きれいな
kirei desu kireina
noun+
