A Good Man is Hard to Find by Flannery O'Connor (American Short Story) Presen...Wafi Badji
"A Good Man Is Hard to Find” is a short story with opening comic episodes that belie and foreshadow a tragic ending. The
story contains elements of southern Gothic, a fictional genre that vests its stories with foreboding and grotesquerie and
replaces the romanticism of nineteenth century Gothic works with realism. However, southern Gothic retains the disturbing
elements of earlier Gothic works, whether in the form of a deranged character, a forbidding forest, or a sense of impending
doom. A southern-Gothic story may call up ghosts of the past, as Bailey’s mother does when she apparels herself in the
finery of an Old South grande dame and when she persuades her family to visit a Civil War-era plantation with a secret
panel.
The story first appeared in 1953 in Avon Book of Modern Writing, edited by William Phillips and Philip Rahv. It was
published again in 1955 in a collection entitled A Good Man Is Hard to Find, and Other Stories.

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.

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.

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. Surname 2
economic independence and free her from emotional agony. Jane gives up on love that she even
develops a negative attitude towards St. John`s companion consideration, she felt that their
relationship will be loveless.
Education
Charlotte depicts education as the only opportunity for someone of low status can rise
and become a prominent person in life. It is through education that Jane Eyre manages to isolate
herself from the pangs of poverty in her aunt’s house to her own home at Moor house without
depending on someone for a living. She desperately grabs the offer of education at Lowood
Charity School and perseveres all the brutal treatment. Charlotte presents Education as a major
source of socialism. While in school, Jane learns foreign languages, different artistic skills and
music performances hence familiarizing herself with the culture.

of being poor but rely on her spirit to propel her life to the second level of moral nature,

acquire much wealth and status for selfish motives according to Charlotte are moral, hypocritical
erroneous, and that poverty can gain regards as long as those in it strive to better their lives and
able to rely on themselves.
Motifs and Symbols

from poverty to another social class. The unbroken spirit and sense of integrity that compels her

to higher levels relate to the burning fire in her heart enabling her to go through all the pains and
disappoints of life without giving up. Chapter 4 unveils the relations of fire in her, “a ridge of
lighted heath, alive glancing and devouring.” Fire discloses itself in her affection to Rochester
where she sees his eyes as “flaming and flashing.
On another angle, the act of arson by Bertha brings another revelation of fire in the story.
Chapter 15 exposes Bertha setting fire to bedclothes of Rochester showing the anger in her.
Therefore, Charlotte uses fire as the symbol of relief or seeking avenge; Bertha feels cheated in
her marriage her husband. Although Rochester blames Bertha to have caused all the misery in
their marriage, he argues that even though she is beautiful and attractive she was loose and used
to sleep around with other men, “in the style of Blanche Ingram.
Ice
Charlotte uses ice in the story to bring to light the emotional desolation and isolated
aspects in the characters. Ice serves as a discouragement or stumbling block to Jane`s success,
the freezing water temperatures every morning, showing the brutal treatment at Lowood that
tormented, given that she admired and had a passion in education. Jane refers Bertha as ice
during her wedding in chapter 26, “A Christmas frost had come at mid-summer, ice grasped the
ripe apple and corn-field lay a frozen shroud.” Bertha had come to take away her peace and her
overwhelming heart that was flourishing in love.
Charlotte uses ice to describe the relationship between Jane and St. in chapter 34, Jane
describes her feelings toward St. John, “By degrees, he acquired certain influence over me...I fell
under a freezing spell.” John`s proposal to Jane symbolizes the end of her freedom. The spirit to
yearn more in life and subjections to his power as her husband, she terms marriage as an
4. Surname 4
imprisonment. Ice and cold depict how stiff and rigid St, John’s heart is, and which scares Jane
the most.

society, enduring the pains prepares her to strive for social class, independence, and happiness in
her life. She reveals her boldness even on the situation outside; she focuses on how to stand on
her own other than finding a companion. The red room infected fear in her that she does not want
to subject herself to any rule, she believes marriage will take her back to the imprisoned life she
had while in the room. The memories of the red scope affect her mental and intellectual
behavior; she reveals it the moment Rochester proposes to her to be a mistress. Jane rejects the
proposal, finds her way out of the captivity of love, and attains her economic freedom,
happiness, house and spiritual family. To Jane, the red room symbolizes hell, a place far away
from liberty, pleasure and purposeful life.

reflects her life through drawings and dreams that captures her deep emotions. In the story, Jane
draws four portraits that droves her mind crazy, she tries to unveil and presents what is in her
mind inform of pictures representing different characters of people. Therefore, the story uses

author, portraits gives an overview of one`s dreams and dictate what someone would want to
happen in their future. The first picture among the four, Janes shows her current life, the second

5. Surname 5
same time compares the two and feels that she still needs to work on her pathetic lifetime. The
third one contains the image of Rochester, which she draws it unconsciously. Rochester`s
portrait reminds her how she admitted her love for him. The fourth and the last one in the story,
Jane draws the sketch of Rosamond Oliver. Charlotte shows Jane`s passionate feeling to capture
the resemblance of herself, the people she knows and the way she values her progress in life
through painting The paintings and portraits.
Bertha Mason
Bertha symbolizes trouble, hatred and immorality in the Jane Eyre. She also signifies
terror and tension towards the people around her. The author uses her character to indicate
danger and chaos in the society. Her appearance marks the interior agony to Jane whose
overwhelming marriage dreams turn to internal grieve. Jane exposes her emotion in chapter 4
when she pronounces her inner spirit as fiery, “ridge of lighted heath.” Bertha reveals her anger
and hatred by burning Rochester`s bedding and causing havoc when Thornfield offers a state of
bondage and submission for Jane. Although her presence brought sense to Jane of establishing
herself and live, a free life that when she could have surrendered herself to Rochester, she
