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

1. Question 4 – Who would be
the audience for your media
product?
Isaac Randall
2. Research - Age
The general target audience for a horror film is
15-25, most commonly as teenagers and young
adults enjoy the thrills horror films offer, yet at a
low cost.
Many young people are not put off by the graphic
images, but are actually drawn towards them.
For example, The Human Centipede (2009) is
well known and viewed specifically because of
the graphic images it contains. However, many
audiences may be put of by the graphic content.
However, overall (as seen from the statistics on
the right) the audience is fairly split between the
various demographics, but overall the majority
lies within the ‘under 18’ and ‘18-29’ brackets.
3. Research - Gender
Although many believe that horror films are stereotypically
aimed at a male audience, there is also a high female
audience for the genre. Films such as The Human
Centipede and The Women in Black have a higher female
audience in the brackets ‘Under 18’ and ‘18-29’, as shown
in the graphs below.
The Human Centipede The Women In Black
4. Research - Interests
Audiences are also drawn to horror films due to their personal
interests. Horror films also may be aimed at those who have have an
interests in the supernatural or the unexplained. Also, those who have
a liking for illusion or enjoy a sense of mystery may enjoy films in the
horror genre, as many of the films withhold information from the
audience.
Horror films are also aimed at groups, such as teenagers. This is
because they are attracted to the films as it has almost become a
social event to get scared together. The Paranormal Activity film
series success is possibly due to this.
5. My Product - Age
My product is mainly aimed at a young audience aged 15- 25, as this
is what the research supports. We have used some graphic images
such as specifically using the blood and cuts on the actors face. This
conforms to conventions and attracts teenagers as they enjoy the
use of graphic images. The age of the protagonist also allows the
target audience to relate better, creating a more realistic feeling
amongst audience members as they could see themselves in the
situation of the protagonist. The protagonist clearly has an interest in
photography, supporting the stereotype that teenagers have an
interest in technology. It helps the target audience again to relate, as
photography and media are subjects many choose to pursue in
school/college/university or/and have an interest in outside of
education.
6. My Product - Gender
The gender of my product’s target audience is
boys however, as although many films have a
large female audience, they generally aim to
target the typical ‘teenage boy’ stereotype.
Meaning, that they enjoy cheap thrills and
actually seek to see, and then discuss the
graphic content, such as that featured in The
Human Centipede, mentioned previously,
Hostel and the Saw franchise.
However, there is a large majority of females
that make up the genres audience. My product
is also aimed mainly at a male teenage/young
adult audience as they are not put off by taboo
subjects. The content of the film also is
relatable for males, as the protagonist is
causing trouble in a location he is not allowed
in.
7. My Product - Interests
My product in particular will conform to the genre and will therefore appeal
to existing fans. The use of conventions, such as the young girl, creates
an ambiguous introduction, and the use of props immediately creates
reactions amongst the audience, such as the rope (indicating the helpless
victim) and dolls (suggesting a supernatural theme).
Groups, such as teenagers for example, of friends may view the film in
order to get a thrill, as one individual in the audience feedback collected,
said that it “[keeps the] audience at the edge of their seat” supporting this.
The scene when the CCTV stops working is an example of a thrill.
Another individual stated that my product “creates enigma codes within
the beginning” suggesting those that enjoy a sense of mystery would
enjoy my product.
