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

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.

Housing Minister’s consultations
• Goal 2: to connect people through the site by providing a
story portal, resource section, and endorsement faculty
• Goal 3: to build awareness of the need for stable and

use social media to connect people?
49. • Metrics: hits on site, stories shared, CTR (click-thru
rate), media mentions, unique visitors, endorsees (private
and organizational), policy impact!
50. Social Media (and other tactics)
• site construction and design • video
• press releases/media release • blogs
• Twitter
• email
• promotion through WI Facebook
fan page and partner networks’
pages
• flyer for events
51. • over 17,000 hits
• 75 stories posted
• nearly 500 personal and organizational endorsees
• media coverage
• agreement from gov’t to include network’s
recommendations in consultation process
• it rocked (but is still rockin’, so add your voice!)
52. other examples
• Kiva is a microlender
that pairs up developing
world lendees with
worldwide lenders
• recently branched into
the US
• all done via social web
53. building capacity
• can require a change in culture (digital
natives vs digital immigrants)
• Most NFPs are used to the “tower model”
of working, not the “cloud”
56. Building Capacity: 5 BIG ISSUES
• Inertia problem - most organizations were founded prior to the
internet....they aren’t used to having control issues, intimate relationships
with audiences, and they think they control their brands.
• Leadership issue - often the leaders are pre-internet. Difficult to get buy-in.
Threatened. Perhaps read a Seth Godin book once.
• Advocate issue - who’s the squeaky wheel?
• Silo issue - “that’s marketing’s job”. “IT handles our web stuff”
• Fear issue - it’s all so new, and changes so quickly, budgetary responsibility
57. I have a secret for you.
• and the secret is......
• this is not a fad. people
don’t abandon
technologies that make
it easier to
communicate.
• shhhh....
58. • explore the tools you’d • explore your personal
like to adopt by using and organizational
them in your personal capacity
life first
• don’t be afraid to try or
to fail. In social media,
you learn by failing
informatively (Red Cross
Social Media Strategy)
• develop your voice
59. how it can work
• positioning. “we are the spearhead of a movement that is changing this issue.
we are a vehicle for making change.”
• engage leadership in new thinking. get help.
• involve social media/coms people at management/strategic level. Obama’s
campaign would be a good example!
• Hire from the millennial generation. Their insight as digital natives will
improve the strategic conversations.
• Speak “human”. People like people. Relationships are where it’s at. Get out of
“press release” mode.
60. More how-to
• Develop a deep understanding of your “clients”. Groups
who are successful are able to tap into the knowledge of
who they are trying to build a relationship with.
• Connect people directly. Bringing people together can be
scary. Power in numbers! Your value is in your ability to
do this.
• Be open, ego free.....and let go of control. You never had
it anyways.
• Emulate, innovate. Fail, experiment. Lather, rinse, repeat.
61. How-to.....
• Set up a twitter account
• Set up a ning page
