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

Insurance is a contract between two parties
a) the insurance company
b) the policy holder
According to the insurance contract:
- The insurance company agree to pay the policyholder a certain sum of
money (Sum Insured)
- If the event (death or peril e.g. fire, earthquake etc.) specified in the
insurance contract happens:
- The policyholder has been paying the premium as specified in the
insurance contract.
INSURANCE CONTRACT
16. E.g. Ramesh has taken a term insurance policy from an insurance
company for 25 yrs. According to the policy terms, Ramesh has agreed to
pay an annual premium of Rs.10,000. The insurance company has agreed
that during these 25 yrs, if ramesh dies, the company will pay ramesh
family Rs. 50 lakhs (Sum assured)
INSURABLE INTEREST – A person is said to have an ‘insurable
interest’ when they stand to gain or benefit from the continued existence
(safety) and well being of the person or property insured and would suffer
a financial loss if there is damage to person or property.
Insurable interest is the legal right of person to insure the subject matter
with which they have a legal relationship recognized by law.

extent of value of services. Employee has insurable interest in the life.
Partners - Partners have insurable interest in the lives of each other. Absence of
any of the partner can affect the firm adversely
Principle of Indemnity – Insurance should place the insured in the same financial
position after loss, as they enjoyed before it not better. The principle of indemnity
ensures tat insurance cannot be used to make profit.

employees, sum insured is 1,00,000. But employee commit fraud
Rs.1,50,000 company approach insurance company for claim. Insurance
pay only 1,00,000 as the company has taken insurance cover only 1,00,000
INSURANCE CONTRACT
20. PROXIMATE CAUSE – The concept of proximate cause is used to
determine whether the cause of loss is an insured peril or excluded peril.
Insured peril means insurance company settle the claim other reject the
claim.
E.g. : There was a fire in the warehouse. The firemen removed the goods
from the warehouse and kept them in the open. Just then, there was heavy
rainfall and the stock was damaged. In this case fire was identified as the
proximate cause even though the rain actually damaged the stock, and the
insurance company will have to pay the fire was as insured peril.
INSURANCE CONTRACT
21. SUBROGATION - The process of transfer of rights from the insured
person to the insurance company is known as subrogation.
E.g. Kishore, due to negligent driving bang his vehicle into Ravi’s car
causing a damage of Rs. 10,000 with the insurance company. The
insurance company indemnifies Ravi for the damage to his car. After
indemnification, the rights of Ravi to recover the damages from Kishore
(due to his negligent driving) get transferred to the insurance company as
per the process of subrogation.
INSURANCE CONTRACT
22. CONTRIBUTION – The principle of contribution ensures that if there
is more than one insurance policy drawn up on the same subject matter,
the insured cannot recover this loss from all the insurers, in which case
they will recover more than their loss, or even make profit.
E.g. Karan has taken insurance for his home from two different general
insurance companies. One cover Rs.50,000 from ABC company and other
policy cover of Rs.1,00,000 from XYZ company.
There is a fire in the house causing a damage of Rs. 45,000. Karan files a
claim with both the companies.
Karan cannot profit by claiming Rs. 45,000 each from both the
companies. Companies contribute proportion (1:2).
INSURANCE CONTRACT
23. UTMOST GOOD FAITH - It means that both the policyholder and
the insurer need to disclose all material and relevant information to each
other before commencement of the contract.
E.g. alcoholic person had mentioned that he is non-alcoholic and he dies
in a heart attack within 2 years of the policy commencement, then also
the Insurance Company may repudiate or decline the claim on grounds of
“non-disclosure” or “misrepresentation” of “material facts”, i.e. for not
stating the complete truth or misstating information which is relevant for
underwriting and risk assessment. His policy could have been over-rated
or loaded with additional premium if the underwriters were aware of the
fact.
