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.

Introduction
Welcome to Junior High School. You have entered another phase of your life.
You are now in one the most exciting yet challenging years of being a student. Since
this is your first time in high school, expect to meet new friends and new set of
teachers. Learn new things, too! Your teachers are here to support and guide you in
your journey to have a deeper self-discovery.
The transition from elementary to high school entails a lot of adjustments.

grade level. We hope that this module helps you to have a smooth transition from
grade school to high school, most especially in your academic tasks or school work.

study habits have also evolved. Internet has become a good friend of most of the
learners who are searching to understand their assignment or even the class lessons

without the aid of physical books. Some libraries now offer online learning resources
which are very useful for a learner like you. However, there are still schools that rely
heavily on physical books or learning materials due to varied reasons and
considerations. Resonating on the said premises, you need to adjust your own time
management and study habits based on your set up, available resources and the
target academic goal.
This module focuses on how you can make your time management and study
habits serve a vital role in making your Grade 7 adjustment smooth while attaining
your target academic goal.
The activities will bring you the opportunities to see how relevant your current
study habits are, and the things that you need to change or even improve.
Enjoy and discover the beauty of learning.

Here are some terms you need to understand.
Study – the activity or process of learning about something by reading, memorizing
facts, attending school, etc. (as defined by Merriam-Webster Dictionary)
Habit – a usual way of behaving: something that a person does often in a regular and
repeated way (as define by Merriam-Webster Dictionary)
Study Habits – is a well planned and deliberate pattern of study, which has attained
a form of consistency on the part of the students towards understanding academic
subjects and passing examination (as defined in the research by Evans Atsiaya Siahi
and Julius Maiyo)
Let’s take a look at some of the things you need to know.
8. 8
Tips to Develop Effective Study Habits
1. Have a specific time to study. A routine helps you to develop mental
preparedness. It will also condition yourself to do the school work. Be particular
on the exact time of your classes (for online, TV and radio-based learning
modalities) and set the time for you to do the self-learning modules (SLM).
Whatever learning modality you’re using, consistency with the time matters.
2. Follow your plan. Delaying a study session is only procrastinating and can lead
to rushed work later. Your self-discipline will be challenged if you are studying
from home. That’s why, your plan will direct you on how you manage your time
not only for school work but for other responsibilities you have at home.
3. Do the difficult assignment first when mental energies are working very
well. You know better when your mind is very responsive and when you’re
having a hard time to process things. However, you also need to consider the
deadlines and other aspects that have to be accounted for.
4. Ask for help when needed. In the absence of physical teacher, you may need
to ask the nearest adults at home to help you understand the lesson. If possible,
you may communicate with your teachers to unlock your difficulties.
5. Take short breaks. Sitting for a long period of time requires break. You may
use the time to do body stretching, relax your eyes and muscles or eat your
snack or meal.
6. Maintain a positive attitude even with difficult subject. Having a negative
attitude toward a hard subject will not make it easier for you. Therefore, instead
of focusing on the negative side, exert your effort on different ways to understand
it. This will redirect your actions in helping yourself rather than magnifying your
unhelpful attitude toward the subject.
7. Attend classes regularly. Classes are conducted because they follow certain
sequence and arrangement of lessons and activities. Therefore, being in class
on a daily basis will help yourself to complete the tasks expected for a student
like you.
8. Practice concentration and focus. Remove all possible distractions around
you if possible. If you’re studying in a limited place where noise and other
interruptions are beyond your control, find a safe, quiet and comfortable place
where you can have a 100% attention on your studies.
9. Write your assignments on a notebook. It pays to be organized with your
things most especially with your studies. If you have eight subjects, definitely,
each will have an assignment. For you to avoid from missing and forgetting to
do your homework, you need to be very keen on writing down the details of your
assignment regularly. Otherwise, no one will do it for you.
9. 9
10. Keep your supplies in your study place. Before starting your study session,
be sure to prepare and arrange the needed things in your area. Practicing this
will help you to have a smooth and hassle-free time.
Why is it so important to plan your study session? Just like a regular activity,
everything has to be organized, calculated and placed. In this way, you can have clear
view of your activities involving your studies and other tasks. You can feel a sense of
direction on what you do daily. You prevented yourself from rushing which causes too
much stress and you can develop a sense of self-discipline to follow your own
schedule which promotes concentration on what your currently do.
