This document discusses the meaning of work and the connection between work and life. It questions whether work is simply what one does every day to pay bills, or if work can also be fun. The document explores different definitions of work, including physical or mental effort directed toward producing or accomplishing something. It suggests that the goal of working is to achieve something and hopefully feel satisfaction from completing a task. Therefore, the key may be working on something you enjoy so that work does not feel like work.

What are the secrets to designing great offices and workplaces while cultivating active, engaged cultures? In this presentation we share best practices to help energize your workplace, improve attraction and retention all the while telling your brand story, connecting to greater sustainability initiatives and more.
Your people are your biggest expenses. You can improve engagement and productivity by tuning your office design to the DNA of your business, your mission, purpose and core values. We call this the values driven design framework. We learn together about your DNA, what makes your company go and your vision for success, your mission and core values. We take that information and identify best practices in workplace design strategies to optimize collaboration and an innovation mindset while providing much needed private, focus spaces, meeting areas and individual work areas.
Some trends we think vital to pay attention to are:
1. Get your people moving: Providing a wide range of sit to stand options at workstations and work areas, to battle the rising obesity epidemic at work. This helps keep your teams moving.
2. Choices at Work: Provide a wide range of open to more private work areas matched to differing modes of work needing to be done by your people. This includes small one to two person phone booths or huddle rooms, to informal backyard areas, front yard areas, high top worksurfaces shared by a workgroup, as well as individual workstations.
3. Bring nature near. Numerous studies show the presence of indoor plants and so call living walls promote worker wellbeing and enhance productivity. Balance interior planting with access to outdoor work areas or "work terraces", walking paths for exercise and walking meetings. See item 1. Get your people moving.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.
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
