“Throughout most of the 19th century the most important course in the college curriculum was moral philosophy, taught usually by the college president and required of all senior students. The moral philosophy course was regarded as the capstone of the curriculum. It aimed to pull together, to integrate, and to give meaning and purpose to the student's entire college experience and course of study. In so doing it even more importantly sought to equip the graduating seniors with the ethical sensitivity and insight needed in order to put their newly acquired knowledge to use in ways that would benefit not only themselves and their own personal achievement, but the larger society as well.” Douglas Sloan

The College president Mr Bernard Ribeiro was invited by the West African College of Surgeons (WACS) to participate in its annual conference in Ghana in February 2006. Along with the Association of Surgeons of Great Britain and Ireland (ASGBI), our College had also been asked by the conference committee to run an intercollegiate Basic Surgical Skills (BSS) course together with a Research Methods course. Mr Martyn Coomer, head of research at the College, assembled a team that included Professor Jerry Kirk (former Council member), Dr Jan van der Meulen (director of the College's clinical effectiveness unit) and three of the College's research fellows.
