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.

3. WHAT IS RESEARCH?
• Research is a systematic search for answering a particular question, solving a
problem, or gathering information, especially for a project, literary work, cinema, or
a television series.
• In academic fields, the term research is used to denote activities such as defining,
redefining, and solving problems; observing facts and their interpretation;
formulation of hypotheses and their testing through experiments; revision of
existing theories and laws; and practical application of information already
generated.
4. MOTIVES FOR DOING RESEARCH

• Luxury and comfort (والراحة )الرفاهية
• Infotainment: Information plus entertainment (والترفيه )المعلومات
• Economic growth
6. CHARACTERISTICS OF GOOD RESEARCH
• Research is based on the work of others (This does not mean that you are copying the work of others, but look to the work that
has already been done to provide a basis for what and how you might conduct your work)
• Research is a blend of logic and imagination (Research is guided by the rules of logical reasoning, and the logical processes of
induction and deduction. Imagination and thought are used for making hypotheses and theories)
• Research tries to identify and avoid bias
• Repeatability (Repeatability is an important characteristic of good research. If we repeat the research, we should get the same
results)
• Research must be generalizable to other settings
• Research is systematic
• Research generates new questions
• Research is an apolitical activity (سياسي غير نشاط )البحث

8. HYPOTHESIS, THEORY, LAW, FACT (REFER TO
PAGE 22 TO 25 IN REFERENCE BOOK)
• In science disciplines, hypothesis, theory, law, and fact are four very different types of reasonable or scientifically
acceptable statements offered to explain natural phenomena.
• Hypothesis: is a idea that is still in the process of active testing; it may or may not be correct.
• Theory: is a hypothesis supported by enough experimental. In other words, a theory is a corroborated
hypothesis.
• Law: is a theory that survived many confirmations and not falsified by convincing and repeatable experimental
evidence may eventually get the status of a ‘law’.
• Fact: in science, the word ‘fact’ has a special meaning. A fact is something that has been repeatedly confirmed;
and for all practical purposes, it is accepted as true or factual.
9. THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD (REFER TO PAGE 26 TO 28
IN REFERENCE BOOK)
• Scientific Method: is a broad term for the diverse processes through which the sciences are built up. It depends on observation,
measurement, prediction, experimentation, or verification, thus differentiating science from other fields of knowledge.
• The scientific method is often described as comprising the following main actions
1. Make observations or gather information
2. Develop a hypothesis
3. Predict results
4. Design an experiment
5. Conduct the experiment and collect data
6. Evaluation and conclusion
7. Acceptance, modification, or rejection of the hypothesis.
10. EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH AND SCIENTIFIC
METHOD
• The scientific method is broader in outlook than experimental research. For a more
formal, systematic, and intensive process of conducting a scientific investigation after
formulating a hypothesis, we generally use the term ‘experimental research’.
Experimental research is usually conducted in a formal setting as that of an academic
institution.
11. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY AND RESEARCH
METHODS
• Research methods mean the methods and procedures a researcher employs to accomplish a
research task. Research methods provide precise and detailed procedures of how to start,
implement, and complete a research project. These include the research techniques, data
collection methods, statistical techniques for the analysis of data, evaluation of research
results, etc.
• Research methodology is used in a wider perspective. Research methodology deals with the
general approaches or guidelines for conducting research. It is the science and philosophy
behind research methods. Research methodology can be defined as the systematic study of
the research process starting from the planning process to reporting the results.
12. THE RESEARCH PROCESS
• The research process starts from identifying a research problem and completes by the
publication of research results.
• The following are the important steps in the research process.
7. Conduct the research work and collect data
8. Analysis of data
9. Interpretation of data
10. Preparation of the thesis/report
11. Presentation of results
12. Publication of reports.
1. Identify the research problem
2. Review of literature
3. Develop the objectives
4. Decide the research design
5. Formulate the research protocol
6. Get approval from competent authorities
