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.

3. Poem “Suicide Note” by Janice
Mirikitani
How many notes written . . .
ink smeared like birdprints in snow.
not good enough not pretty enough not smart enough
dear mother and father.
I apologize
for disappointing you.
I've worked very hard,
not good enough
harder, perhaps to please you.
If only I were a son, shoulders broad
as the sunset threading through pine,
I would see the light in my mother's
eyes, or the golden pride reflected
in my father's dream
of my wide, male hands worthy of work
and comfort.
I would swagger through life
muscled and bold and assured,
drawing praises to me
like currents in the bed of wind, virile
with confidence.
not good enough not strong enough not good enough
I apologize.
Tasks do not come easily.
Each failure, a glacier.
Each disapproval, a bootprint.
Each disappointment, ice above my river.
So I have worked hard.
not good enough.
My sacrifice I will drop
bone by bone, perched
on the ledge of my womanhood,
fragile as wings.
not strong enough
It is snowing steadily
surely not good weather
for flying - this sparrow
sillied and dizzied by the wind
on the edge.
not smart enough.
I make this ledge my altar
to offer penance.
This air will not hold me,
the snow burdens my crippled wings,
my tears drop like bitter cloth
softly into the gutter below.
not good enough not strong enough not smart enough
4. Poem “Suicide Note” by Janice
Mirikitani
Choices thin as shave
ice. Notes shredded
drift like snow
on my broken body,
covers me like whispers
of sorries.
Perhaps when they find me
they will bury
my bird bones beneath
a sturdy pine
and scatter my feathers like
unspoken song
over this white and cold and silent
breast of earth.
6. Identifying subject, persona and
addressee
• Subject: Suicide
• Persona: An Asian American college student
who commits suicide
• Addressee: Her parents
7. Analysing themes
1. Justice
• The persona grows up in a culture that prizes
men over women. She laments Asian-American
women possess less agency than their male
counterparts, which propels them to strive
even harder to please and earn the love of
their parents.
8. Analysing themes
2. Power
• The persona feels trapped and silenced by
the social and cultural conditions of the
world she inhabits, which renders her
powerless.
3. Freedom
• She believes that only through suicide can
she achieve the love of her parents and her
own personal freedom.
9. Analysing themes
4. Death
- The struggles the persona face with regards
to female agency and empowerment in her
cultures lead to her seeking death as a
solution.
- Suicide empowers the speaker by giving her
agency in changing her condition by leaving
an imperfect world for one devoid of the
problems and unfair expectations she
faces.
10. Analysing themes
5. Family Expectation
• The line “not good enough not smart enough not
pretty enough” makes the persona believes that
her parents view her as a weak and imperfect
daughter in doing anything.
• “How many notes written / ink smeared like
birdprints in snow” she can’t change the fact that
her parents look down upon her as being failed in
attaining high grades in exams.
11. Identifying poetic devices
1. Repetition
• “not pretty enough not good enough not
smart enough”suggests that she does not
liv e up to the cultural expectations of
being female but also that her womanhood
itself prevents her from ever winning the
approval of her father and mother.
- “I apologise” – The persona apologises to
her parents as she could not live up to her
parents’ high expectation before she
commits suicide.
12. Identifying poetic devices
2. Symbol
• “sparrow” represents freedom that she
yearns to have as the bird that she
believes freedom from the torment she
feels living within a patriarchal society.
• “altar” represents the sacrifice of her
life. As she stands on the ledge of her
building,, she commits suicide by
offering herself as a sacrifice at the
altar.
13. Identifying poetic devices
3. Simile
• ink smeared like birdprints in snow
• “Fragile as wings”
• “My tears drop like bitter cloth”
• “feathers like/an unspoken song”
• “drawing praises to me / like currents in the
bed of wind”
• “Choice thin as shaved / ice”
14. Identifying poetic devices
4. Metaphor
• The depths of her despair can be seen in these
lines:
“Each failure, a glacier.
Each disapproval, a bootprint.
Each disappointment,
ice above my river.”
• The persona is fully sapped of enthusiasm
after those ‘perceived’ failings. She feels that
she will never find success in school, and she
is never able to please her parents.
15. Appreciating language and style
Form
• written in a form of apology letter
to the persona’s parents
• Free verse
Language & Style
• Simple and repetitive words
16. Reflecting on relevance of poem
• The girl is not able to accept her
imperfections and thinks she cannot deal with
life. Instead of hoping that her problems
would eventually alleviate, she gives up hope
and opts for the easier way out.
• Everyone feels less than perfect at times, but
such feelings are usually dealt with in a
constructive way. But the poor girl feels like a
failure no matter what she did. Her parents
were so critical of her that she automatically
sees a dark cloud beside every silver lining. As
human beings we all need approval and
appreciation from our elders and peers.
17. Expressing personal responses to
literary texts
Based on the poem “Suicide Note” by Janice
Mirikitani, there are times when we feel like we
must be perfect in other to please others. No
matter if we did the best we could, if it isn’t
perfect, we felt like a failure. We want the
approval that comes with perfectness but
perfectionism is not the same thing as striving to be
our best. Perfectionism is not about healthy
achievement and growth; it 's a shield.
Perfectionism is refusal to accept any standard
short of perfection.
Personal Response
18. Reviewing poetic devices in the
poem studied (Revision)
