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

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.

4. Increasing popularity of healthier products with lesser fat and salt
content.
High Investment Cost.
More consolidated meat industry comprising companies with
sophisticated manufacturing and marketing skills(Competition).
Higher Customer Expectations.(Demand for products which are
more convenient to cook and easy to consume.)
Challenges
5. New benefits via existing products.
Diversifying by either acquiring or merging with other
companies.
Develop New Products to tap new markets/ needs.
Increase Economies of Scale & Scope of the other production
line.
Propositions
7. White meat products are in trend.
Recent slowdown due to competition.
Pumping more money and increasing
advertisement and promotional budgets.
Compromise profits for short run and
concentrate more on volumes for the long run.
R&D help to develop new products i.e. turkey

Analysis & Proposed Solution
8.
9. Advertisement cost would increase the cost.
The consumption of meat by the rich may not be
very high because of Engel’s law.
Obstacles
10. Expand production by either a M&A with one of the small enterprises
preferably Turkey Time Ltd.
Raise money for the acquisition by borrowing money at 12%annual
debt service.
Automatically increase the product line. Example: frozen sandwiches.
Merger with Turkey Time Ltd. would result in better economies of
scale.
Other options for acquisition could be with Chicken Rite Inc. or
Crabbies Inc.. Chicken Inc. has low calories chicken salad serve tubs
and Crabbies would cover a new range of shellfish products(eg. Crabs,
lobsters)

12. Obstacles
A decrease in demand would tarnish the profits and
further deepen the losses of the firm.
Accumulated debt may lead to insolvency.
13. Increase the product line by catering to consumers based on their need.
Basic Mantra- Consumer time will help you earn consumer’s money.
Automatically increase the market share and will help you position your product in a different
manner.

Analysis & Proposed
16.
17. Obstacles
Advertisement depends purely on viewership and is fully
written off after it has been incurred.
Very often, markets which have become obsolete would
not recover even after continuous effort is taken by the
company.
18. Strengths Weakness
Considerate Market Share Lower Diversification
Good Brand Image Change in Consumer Preference
Widespread Advertisement High Investment Cost
Opportunities Threats
Economies of Scale Competition
Developing Newer Products Increasing Consumer Expectations
M & A Saturated Market
SWOT ANALYSIS
21. Oscar Mayer took over Louis Rich in the year 1979.
Concept of lunchables was launched in the year 1988.
The revenue from lunchables was $317 million in the first year and
currently it is $1 billion.
Rampant Advertisement techniques were used to increase the visibility.
In the Western countries, it was considered as a staple food.
The market for red meat was already saturated.
Analysis
22. Thus it becomes of primary importance that we should try to discover/tap
newer markets.
Based on our analysis we feel that Oscar Mayer should try to reach out to
newer markets i.e. eastern countries.
The point of objection in our mind would be the high capital expenditure but
we need to realize that if we use the concept of ‘Purchasing Power Parity
(PPP)’ the capital expenditure would not be as high as expected.
But we need to re-design/differentiate the way we position our product in
those untapped markets.
Regardless to say ‘Beef & Pork is a big no, no.’
Solutions
23. Advertise Oscar Mayer as a product which sells chicken, Lamb, Beef, Turkey and
other products which would be consumed by the people in the Eastern countries.
Additionally, since we are trying to target Eastern countries we need to develop
newer products or else we would not be successful.
For instance In India approximately 29% (31,25,00,000) individuals are
vegetarians and there is a huge gamut of people who are vegetarian by choice.
Additionally, most of the elite category are also vegetarians therefore, Oscar
Mayer would not be able to maximize to its full capacity unless it introduces a
vegetarian diet in it’s product line i.e. Paneer, Soya, Mushroom, Aloo Tikki etc.
Solutions
24. Advantage of Entering Eastern Countries
Most of the Eastern countries were closed economies till the latter
half of the 19th
century and were slowly opening up because of
various reforms initiated by their respective Governments.
Therefore we now have an underutilized market.
Targeting an under utilized market would be much easier vis a vis a
fully utilized market.(Selling in Eastern countries maybe easier than
the Western countries.)
