New Song. A Skillful Song., Tony Alonso, Emily R. Brink, Greg Scheer, Liz Vice

Symposium on Worship Archive

Those of us who feel Psalm 33’s call to write new songs must remember that the psalm also tells us to play skillfully. In this seminar we will focus on the skills of songwriting for congregations, digging into what it means to balance inspiration and perspiration. Join these singer-songwriters as they speak about their approaches to creating new texts, new tunes, and the combining of texts and tunes. The afternoon will be spent discussing participants’ song submissions. Attendees of all levels and musical styles will benefit from this seminar.

Decolonization: Resolving The Crisis In Indigenous Peoples’ Health Care, Sandra Tomsons Jan 2019

Decolonization: Resolving The Crisis In Indigenous Peoples’ Health Care, Sandra Tomsons

The Canadian Society for Study of Practical Ethics / Société Canadienne Pour L'étude De L'éthique Appliquée — SCEEA

When colonialism is invisible to the colonizer/settler, that one inevitably misdiagnoses the so-called “Aboriginal problem”. So, unsurprisingly, any proposed solution fails. Problems resulting from colonialism, including the health crisis in Indigenous communities, are so visible Canada cannot deny seeing them. Yet, the voices of Indigenous leaders, community workers, and scholars insisting Canada address colonialism to solve the problems fall on deaf ears. This paper argues that the justice requirement to address colonialism is not simply based in an Indigenous moral and legal perspective. Canada’s justice foundation is provided by liberal theory, and liberalism supports Indigenous solutions. Colonialism has made Indigenous …


Clyde Cessna's 40, Ethan Levin Jan 2019

Clyde Cessna's 40, Ethan Levin

Kansas State University Undergraduate Research Conference

Just outside of the rural town of Rago, Kansas is a 40-acre farm that belonged to Clyde Cessna: aviator, inventor, and founder of Cessna Aircraft Co. Cessna had an impressive aviation career that placed him as the Henry Ford of aviation, spanning decades into the early 20th century. He was an innovator in the new field of aeronautics. Today his legacy is seen in the air with the name Cessna printed on the sides of countless airplanes. The untold part of the story is that without his 40-acre farm for support, Cessna would have been grounded. Clyde Cessna put his …

Dolls, Dinosaurs, And Design, Lauren Hutto

School of Human Sciences Research Showcase

Objective: This project required the research of anthropometrics to design a dream bedroom for a six-year-old from the SFA Charter School. To utilize anthropometrics—the study of the dimensions of the human body —I measured the child’s key dimensions and created a fun, functional, and safe space… just his size! The steps I followed in the design process are outlined below.

Gender Issues: Through The Glass Ceiling, Human Trafficking, And Domestic Violence, Xavier Bishop, Alexa Bobadilla, Tevin Caldwell

School of Human Sciences Research Showcase

The overall purpose of this research paper is to look more in depth into the problem of Gender Issues in the workplace by focusing on three main issues that are present in today’s society and how a light can be shed on them. We start explaining the Glass Ceiling and how it can hold back not just women, but other minorities as well. Then we look into Human Trafficking and how it’s important to look at the signs in the workplace before it gets severely dangerous for that individual. Lastly, we touch on the issue that is summarized as Domestic …

Lgbtq In The Workforce, Jenna Salvesen, Payton Shilling, Christal Smith

School of Human Sciences Research Showcase

LGBTQ struggles are still a major problem today in both the LGBTQ culture and the work culture. They feel as though they are not accepted and are discriminated against. When employees do not feel safe or accepted, then not only do companies lose great employees, they also lose their reputation as a workplace.

Opposites, Bruce Morito

The Canadian Society for Study of Practical Ethics / Société Canadienne Pour L'étude De L'éthique Appliquée — SCEEA

Irony appears to be deeply rooted in the practice of ethics. Attempts to prescribe morally obligatory duties, and to will morally justified actions, often bring about the opposite of their intended result. Imposing imperatives, e.g., justice, in efforts to produce fair, equitable, caring societies, inadvertently plants seeds of failure. The imposition of moral imperatives increasingly appears to generate polarities rather than unities, as cases of abortion, euthanasia, reactions to liberal immigration, and environmental protection policies have illustrated. Imposed imperatives generate counter imperatives and counterclaims of having justice on “our” side. I attempt here to explain this phenomenon and, in the …


A Sorry State Of Affairs: Chinese Arrivants, Indigenous Hosts, And Settler Colonial Apologies, Angie Wong Jan 2019

A Sorry State Of Affairs: Chinese Arrivants, Indigenous Hosts, And Settler Colonial Apologies, Angie Wong

The Canadian Society for Study of Practical Ethics / Société Canadienne Pour L'étude De L'éthique Appliquée — SCEEA

We make and give gestures of apology every day, Canadians doubly so. Yet, grand acts of apology for more serious and sustained matters, such as historical and contemporary injustice against those with the least amount of social power, require far more ethical consideration and transformation than simply saying, “I am sorry.” Since the early 2000s, several political parties of the Canadian government have taken up the trend of making a spectacle out of national apologies to historically oppressed groups. Engaging with the concept of the settler colonial triad to theorize the histories of early Chinese arrivants’ experience, this work departs …


Toward An Interdependent Conception Of The Self: Implications For Canadian Policy Reform, Laila Khoshkar Jan 2019

Toward An Interdependent Conception Of The Self: Implications For Canadian Policy Reform, Laila Khoshkar

The Canadian Society for Study of Practical Ethics / Société Canadienne Pour L'étude De L'éthique Appliquée — SCEEA

This paper explores three ways of conceptualising the self and the implications of these various conceptions on mental health and the treatment of mental illness. First, I explicate the egocentric view, which is predominantly assumed by Canadian doctors, psychiatrists, and psychologists. Second, I consider an ecocentric approach adopted by some traditional Inuit people. Third, I describe a sociocentric conception, typically upheld by Syrians. I argue that, in order to treat mental disorders in Syrian refugees in Canada more appropriately and effectively, Canadian healthcare providers must avoid imposing the egocentric view and seek to understand their patients’ mental health in terms …

Moral Agency, Bureaucracy & Nurses: A Qualitative Study, Elisabeth Fortier, David Malloy

The Canadian Society for Study of Practical Ethics / Société Canadienne Pour L'étude De L'éthique Appliquée — SCEEA

This research explores moral agency among a group of nurses in an urban hospital located in a Western Canadian province. For this study, six Nurses were recruited and their stories describe various limitations within the culture of the healthcare system appears to constrict moral agency and possibly lead to moral distress among nurses. Moral agency seems to be influenced by hierarchy and taking initiatives, time/workload, and the “politics of healthcare”. Nurses also shared experiences of resiliency in facing moral dilemmas in the nursing profession. In conclusion, nurses appear to juggle conflicting priorities between providing quality care to patients and being …
