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.

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.

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. “Lit ”
If something is lit, it means it’s
really cool and exciting.
For example, “That party last night was
so lit!”
3. “FOMO”
Fear of missing out.
For example, “I didn’t want to miss
the party, I had serious FOMO.”
4. “Salty”
Being upset or bitter about something.
For example, “Don’t be so salty about
losing, it’s just a game.”
5. “Ghost
”
To suddenly stop communicating with
someone without explanation.
For example, “He ghosted me after our
second date.”
6. “Main
character"
to behave in a self-indulgent or self-
absorbed manner.
For Example: She won't stop talking about
herself. She thinks she's the main character.
7. "sleep on"
to ignore or dismiss its value.
For example: People have really
been sleeping on this new song.
8. Passive voice
Used to show interest in the person or object that
experiences or receives an action, rather than the person or
object that performs the action.
In other words, the most important thing or person becomes
the subject of the sentence.
9. Passive 9
Active & passive
• Let's look at this sentence:
• I drank two cups of coffee.
This is an active sentence and it has the subject first (the person or
thing that does the action),followed by the verb, and finally the object
(the person or thing that the action happens to).
So, in this example, the subject is 'I', the verb is 'drank' and the object
is 'two cups of coffee’ .But, we don't always need to make sentences
this way
10. Passive 10
Active & passive
We might want to put the object first, or perhaps we don't
want to say who did something. This can happen for lots of
reasons.
In this case, we can use a passive, which puts the object first:
• Two cups of coffee were drunk. (we can add 'by me' if we
want, but it isn't necessary).
ACTIVE: I drank two cups of coffee.
PASSIVE
11. Passive 11
How to make the
passive in English
•We make the passive by putting the verb 'to
be' into whatever tense we need and then
adding the past participle. For regular verbs,
we make the past participle by adding 'ed' to
the infinitive. So 'play’ becomes 'played’.

13. Passive voice 13
Verb with two objects
Some verbs that have two objects can make two different active sentences,
and so two different passive sentences too. For example, the verb 'give' is
like this:
• Active: He gave me the book / He gave the book to me.
You can choose either of the two objects to be the subject of the passive
sentence.
• Passive: I was given the book (by him)/ The book was given to me (by
him).
Other verbs like this are: ask, offer, teach, tell, lend, promise, sell, throw.
14. Passive voice 14
The passive in
subordinate clauses
You can make the passive in a subordinate clause that has a
subject and a normal conjugated verb.
This is really the same as a normal passive.
• Active: I thought that Mary had slapped John.
• Passive: I thought that John had been slapped by Mary.
15. REMEMBER
PASSIVE VOICE SENTENCE
STRUCTURE
PASSIVE SUBJECT + TO BE + PAST
PARTICIPLE
NOTE THAT THE VERB "BE" IS
CONJUGATED FOLLOWED BY THE
PARTICIPLE FORM OF THE MAIN VERB.
THE PASSIVE VOICE FOLLOWS THE SAME
USAGE RULES AS ALL THE TENSES IN
ENGLISH. HOWEVER, SOME TENSES TEND
NOT TO BE USED IN THE PASSIVE VOICE.
GENERALLY SPEAKING, PERFECT
CONTINUOUS TENSES ARE NOT USED IN
THE PASSIVE VOICE.
Examples:
The house was built in 1989.
My friend is being interviewed today.
The project has been completed recently.
