The DILG oversees LGU implementation and conducts studies. National bodies like the PNP, MMDA, and DICT are responsible for overseeing and enforcing the law. Penalties vary depending on the offense but are increased if the victim is vulnerable or the perpetrator is in a position of power.

The SOGIE bill aims to prohibit discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. However, some oppose it due to concerns that it may infringe on religious freedom and freedom of expression. Specifically, critics argue that the bill could require religious schools to accept transgender students or force businesses like cake shops to provide services for LGBT events even if it violates their religious beliefs. Others are concerned it may allow transgender individuals to participate in sports in a way that puts biological women at a disadvantage. Supporters counter that the bill only ensures equal access to basic rights and does not mandate acceptance of any particular lifestyle or beliefs.

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.

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

Gender-
based
sexual
harassment
in the
workplace
includes the

whether done verbally, physically or through the use of technology
such as text messaging or electronic mail or through any other forms
of information and communication systems, that has or could have a
detrimental effect on the conditions of an individual’s employment or
education, job performance or opportunities;
B. a conduct of sexual nature and other conduct based on sex

between peers or

Sexual Harassment Act of 1995 (Republic Act No. 7877)
recognized that sexual harassment occurs in work,
education, and training environments. However, it requires
the existence of authority, influence or moral ascendancy
between the offender and the offended party. It did not
specifically address the issue of “hostile environment”
resulting from sexual harassment between peers or co-
employees, or those committed against a superior. The Safe
Spaces Act addresses these gaps by recognizing that sexual
harassment can be committed between peers, or by a
subordinate to a superior officer.

complaint with the Committee on

f. Describe the procedures of the internal mechanism;
g. Set administrative penalties.
43. Gender-Based Sexual Harassment in Educational and Training
Institutions
What are
the duties of
heads of
educational
and training
institutions

imposable upon employers are also applicable to

and/or update the composition of the CODI. Note that
