Thomas Becket was born around 1118 in London to Norman parents. He became chancellor to King Henry II in 1155 and was later appointed Archbishop of Canterbury in 1162. As archbishop, Becket opposed the king's attempts to assert royal power over the church. In 1170, four of the king's knights murdered Becket in Canterbury Cathedral. Becket's shrine became a popular pilgrimage site and he was regarded as a martyr for the church's independence from royal power.
At first, at the time of his martyrdom, the martyr began to glisten with remarkable miracles, restoring sight to the blind, walking to the lame, hearing to the deaf, speech to the mute, and cleansing lepers, restoring paralytics, curing dropsy and all varieties of fatal, incurable disease, even resuscitating the dead. And miraculously exercising power over the demons and all the elements, he extended the touch of this power to unusual and unheard of signs. For instance, people deprived of their eyes and genitalia obtained new members by his merits.

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

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter 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.
2. Earliest
Years:
The exact date of his birth is unknown, but they
believed he was born in London on December 21, 1118.
Thomas Becket’s parents traveled from Normandy to
England some years before his birth. His parents had
some mark, or some note of nobility to them. Thomas
had been taught well from a very early age. He learned
to read at Merton Abby, then he attended school in
Paris.
3. Early Career:
After school Thomas Becket became a secretary.
Then around 1141 he entered the service of
Theobald, the Archbishop of Canterbury. He won
the archbishop’s favor and became one of the most
trusted clerks.
4. The Road To Becoming An
Archbishop:
Even though he spoke with a slight stutter, Thomas
Becket was loveable and winning in his
conversations. Theobald recognized his intelligence
and ordained deacon in 1154. Thomas Becket was
also given the title of Archdeaconry of Canterbury.
At the same time Henry II became king, and made
Becket his chancellor at the age of thrity-six.
5. Archbishop of Canterbury:
In 1161 Archbishop Theobald died, and in the course
of the next year King Henry II named Thomas Becket
the new Archbishop of Canterbury. This meant that
Thomas Becket became the head of the Roman
Catholic church in England. During this time
Thomas obtained England the privilege of keeping
the feast of the Blessed Trinity, and than a century
afterwards this custom was adopted by the Papal
Court.
6. The Feud:
The Archbishop of Canterbury opposed the king’s
attempts to establish royal rights over the church.
One of these rights was, the right of royal courts to
punish clerics who had committed crimes. Some say
that King Henry II, who was so enraged by the
Archbishop’s opposition, questioned whether or not
someone would get rid of the archbishop of him.
Some of the king’s knights took his words to heart.
7. The Murder:
Four of King Henry II’s knights went to Canterbury
on December 29, 1170 and immediately started to
search for the archbishop. Thomas Becket fled to the
Cathedral, the knights found at the altar and began
to hack him to death, finally splitting his skull open.
Becket’s death unnerved King Henry II so much that
the king, donning a sack-cloth and walking barefoot
through the streets of Canterbury while monks
flogged him with branches. Hordes of pilgrims
transformed Canterbury Cathedral into a shrine For
Thomas Becket.
8. Legacy:
The shrine for St. Thomas of Canterbury was one of
the wealthiest and most famous in Europe. Thomas
Becket’s remains were believed to have been
destroyed in September, 1538, when almost all of the
shrines in England had been destroyed, but some
people still believe that the skeleton found in a crypt
in January of 1888, was the body of St. Thomas.
