Danny Shelby discusses what motivates him in politics. He is motivated to vote so he can help enact changes and has a right to criticize the government. He wants to see more voter involvement. He also hopes the government continues protecting rights like those in the Bill of Rights. Shelby was surprised to learn the powers of the president and wants to learn more about how media affects politics. He believes the biggest political issue is the influence of biased media polarizing Americans. Shelby thinks the First Amendment, protecting freedoms of religion, speech, press, and assembly, is the most important. The biggest life lesson is realizing his individual vote matters in shaping the country.

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.

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.

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. What Motivates Me
• What makes me want to vote- Voting is how I can help make changes in America. If do not
approve of an official, then voting in the next election is the biggest way I can help as a individual.
If I choose to not use my right to vote, then I have no right to criticize how the United States is
ran.
• If I could change on thing in politics, it would be the involvement of the people. Way too many
people refuse to vote in elections. This is a hug issue because every vote matters in elections.
• I hope that the government continues to protect our rights. There is always talk about making
changing to The Bill of Rights or other amendments. The Bill of Rights was made to protect the
people from the government and the government does not need to change it.
3. What I Learned This Semester
• The most surprising thing I learned this semester is the amount of powers that
the president has. I did not know much about what powers the president have
and what powers they do not have until this class. I think these powers are
something that every American should be aware of.
• I would like to learn more about how the media affects politics. The fact that
there is so much fake news in the United States is staggering. I know that media
plays a huge role in politics but I would like to dig deeper into how much fake
news and biased stories directly affect elections.
4. Biggest Political Issue
• I believe that the biggest political issue in the United States right now
and for future generations is the media. The media is already
extremely bias when it comes to covering stories an I fear that it will
only get worse. I also believe that the way the media twist the truth
to target a certain audience has the direct relation to the increase of
political polarization in America. The United States is getting more
and more divided every year and I think the media plays a big role in
this.
5. 1st Amendment
• I believe that the most important amendment is the very first one.
The protections for religion, speech, the press, and assembly is
something everyone should have. It is something that no mater how
much our society changes, it will always be needed in order to have a
truly free country.
6. Life lessons
• I learned a lot of things that I will take into my future but the biggest
thing I learned is that I matter in politics.
• I can help mold The United States into what I think is best just by
simply voting.
• Even though I am just one person, my vote matters in any and every
election.
