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

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 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.

Francesca Gottschalk from the OECD’s Centre for Educational Research and Innovation presents at the Ask an Expert Webinar: How can education support child empowerment?
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.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. Socio-historical Context
Lalawigan ng Palawan, is an island province of
the Philippines located in the Region 4. Its capital
is Puerto Princesa City, and it is the largest province in
the country in terms of total area of jurisdiction.
4. Palawan is composed of the long and
narrow Palawan Island, plus a number of other
smaller islands surrounding the main island.
The Calamianes Group of Islands to the
Northeast consists of
Geography of Palawan
5. Durangan Island almost touches the
westernmost part of Palawan Island,
while Balabac Island is located off the
southern tip, separated from Borneo by
the Balabac Strait.
Geography of Palawan
6. In addition, Palawan covers the Cuyo
Islands in the Sulu Sea. The disputed Spratly
Islands, located a few hundred kilometers to
the west, are considered part of Palawan by
the Philippines, and is locally called the
Kalayaan Group of Islands.
Geography of Palawan
7. Peoples of Palawan
Palawan, the largest province in
the Philippines, is home to
several indigenous ethnolinguistic groups:
1. Batak
- which means "mountain people" in Cuyonon is a group of
indigenous Filipino people that resides in the northeast portion
of Palawan. They live in the rugged interiors of northeastern
Palawan. Living close to nature, they are a peaceful and shy
people. These people believe in nature spirits, with whom they
communicate through a babaylan or medium.
8. Peoples of Palawan
2. Palaweños
- Native-born lowland dwellers
- They are religious, disciplined and have a highly developed
community spirit
- Language : Cuyonon & Agutaynen
3. Palawano
- also known as Pala'wan, is one of the unique indigenous
peoples of Palawan. They are part of the large Manobo-based
linguistic groups of southern Philippines. They traditionally
hunt using soars and bamboo blowguns.
- The Taaw't Bato means "people of the rock". They are not
actually a separate language or ethnic group, but rather a
small community of traditional southwestern Palawanos .
9. 4. Tagbanwa
Peoples of Palawan
- or "people of the world," are found in central and northern
Palawan. They practice shifting cultivation of upland rice,
which is considered a divine gift, and are known for their rice
wine ritual called pagdiwata. Central Tagbanwas are found in
the western and eastern coastal areas of central Palawan.
They are concentrated in the municipalities of Aborlan,
Quezon, and Puerto Princesa.
11. Issues
The struggle to save Palawan (known as the
Philippines’ Last Frontier) is not only about saving trees and
rare species. It is also about nourishing the Filipino cultural
heritage, so powerfully represented by those indigenous
communities that - after escaping Spanish and American
colonization (while resisting the new ‘mining imperialism’
now) - continue to represent the 'living roots' from which all
Filipinos originate. Therefore, environmental plundering by
mining companies is not only a crime against nature but it is
also a crime against culture, a sort of genocide that
annihilates the most profound roots of the Filipino's history
and ultimately plunders the cultural heritage of the whole
nation!
14. Bird songs, Kulial songs, Epics (i.e. Kudaman)
The Kudaman epic starts with a long narrated
prelude in a tale pattern (50 typewritten pages)
before the six to seven nights can develop. The
nights repeat the span of seven years that frames
the ritual of commemoration of the Master of Rice,
Tämwäy ät Ampuq ät Paräy.

19. Musical Context
The subtle threads between Mankind and Nature
involve all our senses and more particularly our
auditive sensitivity. Capturing tonalities, rhythms, and
melodies, we can like a bird fly down from the celestial
vault to the Earth, dwelling-place of Highlander-
islanders known as the Palawan who live in the
southern part of the island by the same name. This
aural voyage will take us to the realm of words, poetry,
and music as human creations which the Palawan uses
to communicate in order to live harmoniously in this
world.
20. Music in Ritual
The shaman sings the difficult experience of the
voyage of his double, kuruduwa, by a specific chant,
the lumbaga, whose melody is in all points assimilable
to any epic melodic line. And it is precisely the ordeals
that the soul of the shaman overcomes in the course
of his voyage—the encounters with the Evil Doers,
Länggam or Säqitan, the discussions, the bargaining
engaged in with the Invisible Beings—that constitute
the shamanic chant.
21. Music in Ritual
• to sing tultul is to be possessed by a Täw Tultultulän. These
“Epic Heroes” are a type of humanity who live in the median space
and intercede between people on this earth and Ämpuq. They are a
Benevolent Humanity protecting the “Real Men.” The act of
chanting thus doubles with the embodiment, in the very person of
the bard, of these heroic and semi-divine Beings. One can interpret
this relationship as an act of possession in which the bard becomes
a medium.
• Epics are always chanted at night, ending at daybreak; it is
forbidden to sing when the sun shines and during the day. This
prohibition links the epic to the night and a sacred world. Moreover,
one would never chant for amusement in a light joking manner.
22. In the Central West highlands, is the Palawan
Island. One of the tribes in Palawan are the
TAGBANUAS. The Tagbanuas has retained their
ancient culture. The Calamianes Group of Islands who
elaborate funeral celebrations. Five days after
interment, the relatives goes to the homes of the
deceased to perform funeral rites.
Then the participants chant the Batac, a lengthy
song recounting the significant adventures of a
mythical person named DUMARACOL. The singing
goes on for three successive nights for evening till
dawn.
