Grants Management in the Era of Accountability: Performance Measures in the Uniform Guidance Shane Jernigan Senior Instructional Designer, Grants & Assistance Division Management Concepts Executive Summary Successful management of Federal grants has always required skill, practice, patience, and even a little luck. As policymakers and the public have grown increasingly concerned about “wasteful government spending,” grants managers have had to adapt to new regulations and additional oversight. In this “Era of Accountability,” Federal awarding agencies and non- Federal recipient entities must remain vigilant in protecting Federal funds from waste, fraud, and abuse.

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

National Dish
There is a lot of variety in Italian cuisine, and no real national dish. Each region has its specialty,
but one thing common to most regions is a good tomato sauce.
The real way to make a tomato sauce
The key to a good tomato sauce is the sauté you start it with, giving the sauce a distinctive and full
flavor.
1 carrot
1 stalk of celery
1 medium onion
3 cloves of garlic
2 16 oz cans of tomatoes
Olive oil
Pinch of sugar
Chop the carrot, celery, and onion very finely. Heat olive oil to medium heat in a saucepan, and
add the three vegetables. Sauté for 3 minutes, then add the peeled cloves of garlic. After 2 more
minutes, add the cans of tomatoes, adding a little sugar to offset the acidity of the tomatoes.
Cook over medium heat for 30-40 minutes.

Major Languages
Italian is the official national language, but there are other languages present in Italy: German
(parts of Trentino-Alto Adige region are predominantly German speaking), French (small French-
speaking minority in Valle d'Aosta region), Slovene (Slovene-speaking minority in the Trieste-
Gorizia area).
In addition, there are many regional groups that go by their ethnic name, such as Genovesi,
Milanesi, Lombardi, Siciliani, Sardi; and have their own dialects. These are mostly spoken by the
older generations, but are not threatened by extinction.

Travel Tips
When traveling to Italy, remember that the currency is the Euro, along with
most European countries. This will save you from having to change currency
between them.
Most people in large cities speak at least a little English, but once you leave
metropolitan areas you may need to bring a phrase book with you!
There are many bed and breakfasts, called pensioni, that offer a more
traditional stay than hotels.
Popular sports include soccer, rugby, skiing. There are many local soccer
games on weekends in cities that have a professional team.
Although most think of Italy as a summer destination, the Alps and Apennine
mountain ranges offer many good occasions for skiing and snowboarding in
winter time.
