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) Remove belt guard
3) Loosen motor mounts
4) Shorten center distance
5) Remove old belts
6) Inspect belt wear patterns for possible troubleshooting
7) Inspect and clean drive elements-bearings, shafts, etc.
8) Inspect sheave grooves for wear - replace if necessary
9) Preliminary sheave alignment
10) Identify proper replacement belts
11) Install new belts
12) Tension belts
13) Final sheave alignment
14) Replace guard
15) Start drive (look & listen)
16) Re-tension after 24 hours
3. Safety First
• Be sure to review and
comply with all building
and safety codes
• Disconnect and lockout
the power supply
4. Inspect Drive Elements
• Inspect and replace faulty
or damaged machine
elements such as worn
bearings or bent shafts
5. Relieve Belt Tension
• Loosen the drive take-up
and move the sheaves
closer together to facilitate
the removal of the old
belts and to insure
installation of the new
belts without damage
7. Inspect Sheaves
• Sheave condition and
alignment are vital to V-
Belt life & performance
• Never install new belts
without a thorough
inspection of the sheaves
• Look for worn groove
sidewalls, shiny sheave
groove bottom, wobbling
sheaves and damaged
sheaves
8. Select Replacement Belts
• Never mix new and used belts
on a drive
• Never mix belts from more
than one manufacturer
• Always replace with the right
type of belt
• Always observe belt matching
limits
9. Installing New Belts
• Place the new belts on the
sheaves and be sure that the
slack of each belt is on the
same side
• Do not force the belts on the
sheaves by using a pry bar or
by rolling the sheaves
10. Check Sheave Alignment
• Sheave should be mounted
as close to bearing as
possible to reduce overhung
load on bearing
• The straight-edge should
make contact at two distinct
points along the outside
perimeter of both sheaves
• V-Belt sheave alignment
should be within a tolerance
of 1/16” per 12” of drive
center distance
11. Sheave Alignment

4
There should
be no gaps
between the
sprocket and
straightedge
at 1-2-3-4
The straight-edge should make contact at four distinct
points along the outside perimeter of both sheaves.
12. V-Belt Tensioning
• Proper tensioning is the
single most important
factor necessary for long,
satisfactory operation
• Too little tension will result
in slippage, causing rapid
belt and sheave wear and
loss of productivity
• Too much tension can
result in excessive stress
on the belts, bearings and
shafts
13. V-Belt Tensioning
Tension-Finder
• A simple method to assure
proper tensioning
• Easy and Accurate
• For use on individual belts
or V-Bands
• Should not be used with
aramid or glass cord belts
14. V-Belt Tensioning
Using the Tension-Finder
• Step 1: Install belts
loosely on the drive
• Step 2: Apply enough
tension to take the slack
out of the belts
15. V-Belt Tensioning
Using the Tension-Finder
• Step 3: Scribe a line on
the belt using the Tension-
Finder as a square
17. V-Belt Tensioning
Using the Tension-Finder
• Step 5: With the line in
the Start Slot, attach the
spring to the belt
• For cog belts, the best
place for the spring may
be in the cog
18. V-Belt Tensioning
Using the Tension-Finder
• Step 6: Scribe a line at the
spring end of the Tension-
Finder. Use this line as a
reference point in case the
spring slips off the belt
19. V-Belt Tensioning
Using the Tension-Finder
• Step 7: Determine the
required slot for your drive
from the table. Then
keeping the Tension-
Finder snug against the
clip, tighten the belt until
the line has moved to the
designated slot.
20. V-Belt Tensioning
Using the Tension-Finder
• Step 8: Remove Tension-
Finder hardware from the
belt, tighten mounting
bolts and replace belt
guards. You’re ready to
start the drive!
• Warning!! Remove all
Tension-Finder hardware
from the belt before
starting the drive.
22. V-Belt Tensioning
Special instructions for Cog Belts
• Put a dot in the start
slot. Be careful not to
catch the pen in the slot
so you don’t pull the tip
out of the pen.
24. V-Belt Tensioning
Recommended tensioning slots for Tension-Finder
The recommended slot numbers will provide an
adequate level of belt tension on average drives. If
more tension is required go to a higher slot number.
For less tension go to a lower slot number.
25. V-Belt Tensioning
Using the Spring Loaded Tensiometer
1. Measure the span length of
the drive. Set the large “O”
ring at 1/64” for each inch of belt
span. For example, set the
large “O” ring 1/4” for a span
length of 16”, at 1/2” for a span
length of 32”, at 1” for a span
length of 64” etc.
26. V-Belt Tensioning
Using the Spring Loaded Tensiometer
2. Set the small “O” ring at zero and
press down the Tensiometer at the
center of the belt span.
A. On a single belt drive, depress the
Tensiometer until the large “O” ring is
even with the bottom of a straight
edge placed on the outside rims of the
two sheaves.
B. On a multiple belt drive, depress
the Tensiometer until the large “O” ring
is even with the top of the next belt.
Measure each belt in the drive. and
take the average reading of all belt
tensions.
27. V-Belt Tensioning
Using the Spring Loaded Tensiometer
3. Remove the Tensiometer, and
observe that the small “O” ring has
moved from its original setting at
zero to the number of pounds
required to deflect the belt to the
extent noted above.
4. Check this reading against the
value of Pmin and Pmax calculated
in Step 4 of the “Formula Method”
or from the Table.
28. V-Belt Tensioning
Strand Deflection - Formula Method
Step 1. Measure span length (t) in inches as
shown or calculate as follows:
Where:
t = span length, in inches
C = center distance, in inches
D = large sheave pitch diameter, in inches
d = small sheave pitch diameter, in inches
This method is based on the fact that the force required to deflect a given
span length by a given amount is related to the tension in the belt.
29. V-Belt Tensioning
Strand Deflection - Formula Method
Step 2. Calculate the deflection distance by: t/64 = deflection. Note that the
deflection distance is always 1/64” per inch of span length (for example, a 32”
span length would require a deflection of 32/64 or 1/2 inch).
Step 3. Calculate the static strand tension (Ts) per belt by the following formula:
Design HP x K
Ts = + Tc
Q x S
Where: K = value from the table depending on value of D - d
C
Q = number of belts/ribs on drive
S = belt speed, feet per minute / 1000
Tc = add-on tension allowance for centrifugal force, from Table.
Note: The value of
Ts is for an
individual V-belt.
30. V-Belt Tensioning
Strand Deflection - Formula Method
Step 4.
Calculate the recommended minimum & maximum deflection forces (P), in pounds:
Ts + Y (1.5 x Ts) + Y
Pmin = Pmax =
16 16
Where:
Ts = Static strand tension (from Step 3)
Y = Constant from Table 30
31. V-Belt Tensioning
Strand Deflection - Formula Method
For drives using only one belt, and at least one shaft is free to turn, use
the following for the deflection forces (P):
Ts + tLr (1.5xTs) + tLY
Pmin = Pmax =
16 16
Where: t = span length, inches (from step 1)
L = belt pitch length, inches
Y = constant from Table
32. V-Belt Tensioning
STEP 5 Using a Tensiometer apply
force to ONE belt of the drive,
perpendicular to the span at its mid-point.
Measure the deflecting force being applied
when the belt has been deflected the
distance calculated in Step 2 (use an
adjacent belt as reference point; on single
belt drives, use straight edge or taut string
across sheaves). The measured force
should be between the values of Pmin and
Pmax calculated in Step 4. If the measured
force is outside these values, adjust center
distance to increase or reduce tension, and
repeat above procedure. On multiple belt
drives an average of readings on each belt
is recommended.
33. V-Belt Tensioning
NOTE: If new belts are being
installed for the first time, it is
permissible to tension as much as
1.33 x Pmax to allow for initial
stretch and seating in the grooves.
STEP 6
During the first 24 hours of
operation, it is advisable to repeat
the procedure in Step 5 at least
once.
34. V-Belt Tensioning
• Operate the drive for a few minutes to seat the belts in
the sheave grooves. Observe the operation of the drive
under the highest load condition (usually starting). A slight
bowing of the slack side of the drive indicates adequate
tension. If the slack side remains taut during the peak
load, the drive is too tight.
• Check the tension on a new drive several times during
the first 24 hours of operation, by observing the slack side
span.
35. V-Belt Tensioning
• Keep the drive free of foreign material which might cause
slippage or damage to the belt and sheave surfaces.
• If a V-Belt slips, it is too loose. Increase the tension by
increasing the center distance.
• Never apply belt dressing as this will damage the belt and
cause early failure.
36. V-Belt Tensioning
• Excessive tension can be
even more detrimental
than too little tension not
only on the belts but also
the bearings and shafts.
• Indicators of excessive
tensioning may be
repeated belt breakage,
excessive vibration,
overheated bearings,
whipping or bent shafts
37. V-Belt Tensioning
Elongation Method
• Because belt elongation is
related to the tension causing
it, tape-measured lengths,
both slack and tight, can be
used to obtain proper Vee-
Band tension.
• Note: The Tension-Finder
is based on the elongation
method.
38. V-Belt Tensioning
Elongation Method
STEP 1 Check sheaves to make sure they are properly
aligned and that the grooves are not excessively worn (they
should not be dished out more than 1/64”).
STEP 2 Decrease the center distance until the Vee-
Band(s) can be easily slipped into the sheave grooves.
Forcing the belts on can damage the load-carrying cords
and cause premature failure.
STEP 3 With the Vee-Band(s) still on the drive at no
tension, tape their outside circumference (slack O.C.).
39. V-Belt Tensioning
Elongation Method
NOTE: If you are tensioning a used belt, decrease the
center distance until there is no tension on it; then tape the
outside circumference.
40. V-Belt Tensioning
Elongation Method
STEP 4 Find the required static tension (Ts) per individual
strand (rib) using the formula:
Design HP x K
Ts = + Tc
Q x S
Where: K = value from table depending on D-d
C
Q = number of belts
S = belt speed, fpm/1000
Tc = add-on tension allowance for centrifugal force (See Table)
41. V-Belt Tensioning
Elongation Method
STEP 5 Find a range of recommended Static Strand
Tensions:
Lower value = Ts (from Step 4)
Upper value = 1.5 x Ts
STEP 6 Calculate minimum and maximum elongation band
lengths for use in tensioning drive:
a. From table, find length multipliers corresponding to the
lower and upper values of Ts in Step 5.
b. Multiply the slack O.C. found in Step 3 by the multipliers to
find the minimum and maximum elongated band lengths.
42. V-Belt Tensioning
Elongation Method
STEP 7 Increase the drive
center distance until a tape
measurement of the bands O.C.
is between the two values
calculated for elongated band
lengths in Step 6(b).
STEP 8 Re-tension as
required. A new Vee-Band may
lose tension rapidly during the
run-in period & will probably need
re-tensioning. A Vee-Band that
has been on a drive for some time
may also require re-tensioning
due to tension decay from normal
use and wear.
