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

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.

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.

2. American English most definitely possesses some
punctuation quirks. We see this with questions.
• Questions
• 1. In American English, we can ask a question without quotation marks or commas.
• Is it worth the risk? he wondered.
• 2. We can also omit the question mark after a request in informal writing. So American
English permits the following two requests.
• Would you please return these books to the library?
• Would you please return these books to the library.
3. • 3. We can also use entire sentences (capitalized and all) or parts of sentences as subjects,
objects, or object complements.
• My favourite saying is “Beggars can’t be choosers.”
• The expression she used in her speech was “art in conversation.”
• “My all-time favourite flower” was how Susan described the peony.
• However, Canadian English is quirkier still.
• For example, we can place a question mark after indirect questions, which is a serious
no-no in American English.
• I wonder if you could cook dinner tonight?
• In Canadian English, as in American, we can omit question marks after requests.
• Would you come this way, please.
4. Exclamation Points
• Now we leave the simply quirky and enter the truly mind blowing. In Canadian English,
we can put exclamation points right in the middle of a sentence if we’re using
onomatopoeic words—words that represent a sound (e.g., bang, chirp, fizz, and meow).
• RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF A SENTENCE!
• Crash! went the books when the bookshelf toppled over.
• We could never do that in American English.
• Compare that with the following.
• The crash of the books when the bookshelf toppled over was so loud I awoke.
5. Periods
• While we’re discussing punctuation, I should note that Canadian English requires a
period after titles (e.g., Mr., Ms., Mrs., and Dr.), as does American English. This is NOT
true in British English.
6. Quotations
• I noted above that American English allows us to omit commas and quotation marks
with questions and to use sentences and parts of sentences as subjects, objects, and object
complements. We can do all that in Canadian English, but Canadian English takes this a
step further.
• The following are also permissible.
• My mother reiterated, Do your homework! (No quotation marks necessary and
capitalization mid-sentence allowed.)
• He said “Shut up!” and ran. (No comma necessary after ‘verbs of saying.’)
• As in American English, we put commas and periods inside quotation marks whether or
not the original author included them in the actual quote.
• Original: Literature is protest, is it not?
7. • Quote: “Literature is protest.”
• Also, as in American English, we place ending question marks inside quotations if they
apply to the quote only and outside if they apply to the entire sentence.
• Shouldn’t we stop complaining “I’m hungry”?
• All she said during the trip was “Are we there yet?”
• Note: If a question mark belongs inside the quote AND outside the quote (if we have a
question within a question), we use only one question mark and place it INSIDE.
• Isn’t it time we stopped asking “When can we open our Christmas presents?”
8. Ellipses
• In American English, we generally put a space before, after, and in between ellipses
indicating omitted words. In Canadian English, we can use spaces before, after, and in
between or NONE.
• Original: Interviews, despite being disparaged for their subjective nature, serve as
helpful research tools.
• American/Canadian: “Interviews . . . serve as helpful research tools.”
• Canadian only: “Interviews...serve as helpful research tools.”
• Additionally, as in American English, use four dots if the preceding part is a full
sentence.
• American/Canadian: “Interviews, despite being disparaged for their subjective nature,
serve as helpful research tools. . . . Most researchers assert that open-ended questions are
the most effective.”
