Dr. Christopher Ryan Maboloc presents papers in 10 international virtual conferences in 2020

Dr. Christopher Ryan Maboloc has presented papers in 10 virtual international conferences this year, particularly in the conferences hosted by the Arizona-based American University of Sovereign Nations (AUSN) in which he is a visiting professor, the Eubios Ethics Institute, and in the Universal Science Education Research Network (USERN) Congress. The research papers deal with his philosophical reflections on Covid-19 as well as the philosophy of technology, post-pandemic. "Our present situation has been a challenge but at the same time it is also an opportunity to engage with global scholars," he says. 

Local academicians in Mindanao have also been active in their international engagements, which Dr. Maboloc says is important because "the universe is such a big place and there is always room for everyone to develop his or her potential." Dr. Randy Tudy, Dr. Rogelio Bayod, Fr. Urbano Pardillo Jr., Fr. Dexter Veloso, Mr. Gerry Arambala, Dr. Moises Torrentira, Mr. Aldrin Quintero, and Dr. Sherlito Sable, who are all members of the Social Ethics Society, have also presented various papers in the AUSN hosted events. "The challenge is not just to write something," Dr. Maboloc mentions, "but to create an insight that can have social impact and human importance as well."

Statement of the SES expressing its opposition to the proposal to remove Ethics in the GE Curriculum

  We, members of the Board of Directors of the Social Ethics Society, express our strong opposition to the proposal to remove ethics in college. Such move is bereft of merit and is ignorant as to the value and purpose of the teaching of the course, which is thoroughly rooted in the integral and critical function of higher education. The proposal to transfer it to Senior High School deprives college students of the teaching of ethics as a professional course, which is crucial in their civic engagements and the pursuit of a democratic society that can only be grounded in responsible citizenship and critical thinking.  The direction of Edcom and its advisers from the technical panels of the Commission on Higher Education (CHED) reduces our whole education system into a mode of creating docile workers who will constitute the labor force that will serve the whims and interests of a capital intensive and consumer driven globalized neoliberal economic order. It only breeds our subser...
