The document discusses the visual aspects of writing and argues that the way writing is formatted and presented can impact the reader as much as the words themselves. It notes that while plain black text on white paper is a common format for school assignments, incorporating visual elements like images and altering formatting can help readers understand the ideas more fully. The document explores different ways words and images can be combined based on Scott McCloud's theories of visual literacy and suggests students experiment with simple visual tweaks, like changing text alignment or adding small images, to their own writing.

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 Many Visual Perspectives of Writing
1. The Many Visual
Perspectives of
Writing
Kelly Daisy Ida Frost
2. When you’re asked to
turn in a writing assignment to
a teacher, I’d imagine it would
look much like this.
Black text on white
paper is the assumed and
many times required format.
3. However, when we
read a piece of
writing, we are not only
affected by the
demeanor of the
words…
5. The aesthetic choices
we make with our
writing, makes us feel a
certain way, therefore
attaching itself by association
to the meaning of the words
on the page.
6. Especially since writing has
become digital, our
expectations for how it
should look and our options
to do so have grown.
7. The point can be made that
pieces of writing, such as college
assignments, are kept formatted
and plain to keep track of length
and avoid any distraction from the
ideas by which you are being
graded.
9. But, ANY format sparks an emotion,
even the black text
on the white paper.
10. And after a while,
it’s time to step
outside the box
11. There is a negative
stigma attached to the
use of images within
writing that we want to
be taken seriously.
12. Yet by discouraging the
emphasis on the way words
look on a page and the use
of graphics along with those
words, we ignore how
much more information can
be obtained through visual
literacy.
13. What is Visual Literacy?
Clearly defining what visual
literacy actually is becomes difficult
when we see how much it applies to the
way we see the world, but for the
purposes of this presentation, I turn to
the field of document design.
14. Just as chefs are
judged on the visual
aspect of food
preparation,
the field of document
design shows that writing
is thought of in a similar light.
15. doc⋅u⋅ment de⋅sign [n. dok-yuh-muhnt di-zahyn]
“Document design is the field concerned with creating
texts, that is books, of prose, graphics (including illustrations
and photography) and typography for purposes of
pamphlets, posters and others that integrate words and
pictures in ways that help people to achieve their specific
goals for using texts at home, school, or work. It is the
bringing together instruction, information [and]
persuasion.”*

16. In the past, it was
common to see pictures
in adult literature for the
same reason stained
glass in churches depicts
the stories from the bible;
reiteration so a greater
population can
comprehend the ideas.
17. McCloud's Understanding Comics
defines seven distinct categories of
combinations of words and pictures
1. Word specific, where quot;pictures illustrate, but don't significantly add to
a largely complete text.quot;
2. Picture specific, where quot;words do little more than add a soundtrack to
a visually told sequence.quot;
3. Duo-specific, where quot;both words and pictures send essentially the
same message.quot;
4. Additive, where quot;words amplify and elaborate on an image or vice
versa.quot;
5. Parallel, where quot;words and pictures seem to follow very different
courses-- without intersecting.quot;
6. Montage, where quot;words are treated as integral parts of the picture.quot;
7. Interdependent, where quot;words and pictures go hand in hand to
convey an idea that neither could convey alone.quot;
18. More can be expressed when
the “look” of the words is
taken into consideration.
So the question for you is…
How can this be utilized
in your school assignments?
19. A simple break from habitual centering and an
incorporation of small images is one place to start.
Here are some
examples…
20. So I hope I’ve inspired you to start
considering the many visual aspects of
writing. Technology is increasingly
offering us more and more options for
our text and making the right choices
with those options can allow you to do
more with the words on your page.
