Aprendieron en estas aulas, compitieron en estos campos y interpretaron en estos escenarios. Formaron amistades, descubrieron sus pasiones y comenzaron a construir las tradiciones que ayudaron a definir a Madera High School durante generaciones. Este a\u00f1o, nuestros estudiantes tienen la oportunidad de a\u00f1adir otro cap\u00edtulo a esa historia\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Antes de que Cosgrove comenzara, hab\u00eda alrededor de 100 estudiantes que participaron en el evento, as\u00ed como el coro de MHS que interpret\u00f3 el himno nacional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA los adultos mayores que est\u00e1n aqu\u00ed hoy, cuando caminen por el escenario en junio, representar\u00e1n a la 130\u00aa promoci\u00f3n de graduados de la Madera High School. Durante m\u00e1s de un siglo, los j\u00f3venes de esta comunidad han llamado a la Madera High School su escuela\u201d, dijo Cosgrove.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cosgrove conoce la historia de MHS antes que ella misma y sabe que es la encargada de custodiar la historia y el futuro de MHS y de MUSD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cComo directora de la Escuela Secundaria Madera durante los \u00faltimos 10 a\u00f1os, estoy profundamente consciente de que, a veces, me han confiado algo m\u00e1s que a m\u00ed misma\u201d, dijo. \u201cHe tenido el privilegio de poder construir sobre el trabajo de quienes me precedieron, al tiempo que ayud\u00e9 a guiar a MHS hacia la pr\u00f3xima era. Cada directora que me precedi\u00f3 dej\u00f3 algo atr\u00e1s: una tradici\u00f3n fortalecida, un programa creado, una relaci\u00f3n construida, un desaf\u00edo superado o una creencia en los estudiantes de que pod\u00edan convertirse en algo m\u00e1s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMe siento incre\u00edblemente orgulloso de continuar con la tradici\u00f3n y la historia de Madera High School. Estoy igualmente emocionado por lo que nos espera para nuestros estudiantes, el personal y la comunidad. La historia no es algo a lo que nos referimos con nostalgia. Es algo que estamos creando todos los d\u00edas. Dentro de a\u00f1os, otro grupo podr\u00eda reunirse para celebrar otro hito en Madera Unified y, cuando retrocedan en el tiempo, ver\u00e1n a todos nosotros en el a\u00f1o escolar 2027, 2028, 2029 y 2030. El ejemplo que ustedes han dado se convertir\u00e1 en parte de la historia que surgir\u00e1 despu\u00e9s de ellos. Somos parte de esa historia.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Noah Hernandez, representante del Consejo de Estudiantes de MUSD, sabe de primera mano c\u00f3mo deber\u00eda celebrarse este aniversario tan importante.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEs un honor estar aqu\u00ed para celebrar los 60 a\u00f1os de Madera Unified. Lo que hace que sea a\u00fan m\u00e1s especial para m\u00ed es que no estoy aqu\u00ed como miembro del consejo escolar, sino como estudiante celebrando el mismo distrito en el que he crecido\u201d, dijo. \u201cLos 60 a\u00f1os son algo que vale la pena celebrar. Pero lo que creo que es m\u00e1s importante es lo que esos 60 a\u00f1os representan. El impacto de un distrito escolar no deber\u00eda medirse por cu\u00e1nto tiempo ha existido, sino por las personas que han pasado por \u00e9l con las oportunidades que se les han dado y lo que han tenido que superar para lograrlo. Como estudiante que ha beneficiado de esas oportunidades, puedo decir que Madera Unified ha hecho una diferencia en mi vida, al igual que lo ha hecho para tantos otros. Mientras celebramos este importante hito, espero que podamos tambi\u00e9n mirar hacia adelante a lo que traer\u00e1n los pr\u00f3ximos 60 a\u00f1os: M\u00e1s oportunidades para nuestros estudiantes, m\u00e1s logros para celebrar y, lo m\u00e1s importante, un distrito que escuche y invierta en sus estudiantes\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hern\u00e1ndez se da cuenta de la responsabilidad que tiene como miembro del consejo estudiantil y no la toma a la ligera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLa parte m\u00e1s importante de ser miembro del consejo estudiantil no consiste en asistir a las reuniones y sentarme esperando a que me escuchen. Es el hecho de tener la oportunidad de defender los intereses de mis compa\u00f1eros. Es algo que tomo muy en serio\u201d, dijo. \u201cVeo una comunidad escolar que contin\u00faa alentando a los estudiantes a alcanzar sus objetivos, y eso es lo que creo que hacer un aniversario de 60 a\u00f1os de Madera Unified es m\u00e1s que simplemente celebrar cu\u00e1nto tiempo lleva funcionando. Es reconocer a los miles de estudiantes que han pasado por nuestras escuelas, a los profesores y personal que han dedicado a\u00f1os de su vida para ayudarnos a tener \u00e9xito, y a las familias que han confiado en nuestro distrito para la educaci\u00f3n de sus hijos.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El superintendente de MUSD, Todd Lile, habl\u00f3 sobre lo importante que ser\u00e1 para los estudiantes que caminen por el escenario de la graduaci\u00f3n en mayo. Tambi\u00e9n permiti\u00f3 que los exdirectores O\u2019Kane y Pisk se dirigieran a los estudiantes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cElla se acerc\u00f3 y levant\u00f3 esta escuela en un momento de necesidad\u201d, dijo Lile sobre O\u2019Kane, quien comenz\u00f3 su mandato como directora de MHS en 1972.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMadera High School y Madera Unified han tenido momentos de \u00e9xito y de fracaso a lo largo de los a\u00f1os. Fue emocionante construir nuevas aulas. Tambi\u00e9n hemos pasado por momentos muy dif\u00edciles. Estoy muy orgullosa del cambio que ha experimentado Madera Unified\u201d, dijo ella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">El \u00faltimo a\u00f1o de Pisk como director fue en 2008, justo antes de que MHS se dividiera oficialmente en dos escuelas secundarias separadas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201c\u00c9l lleg\u00f3 a la Escuela Secundaria de Madera en un momento en que el club necesitaba una nueva energ\u00eda. \u00c9l ejemplifica a Coyote Pride\u201d, dijo Lile sobre Pisk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEn 2008, en mi \u00faltimo a\u00f1o, si hubi\u00e9ramos tenido esta actividad, habr\u00eda habido 1.000 estudiantes. \u00c9ramos una gran comunidad, y no est\u00e1bamos divididos por colegios\u201d, dijo Pisk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Mientras MUSD celebra sus 60 a\u00f1os, el distrito espera con inter\u00e9s lo que traer\u00e1n los pr\u00f3ximos 60 a\u00f1os.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHoy celebramos nuestro pasado. Honramos a las personas que ayudaron a llevarnos hasta aqu\u00ed y esperamos con gran orgullo y optimismo hacia d\u00f3nde ir\u00e1 Madera High School y Madera Unified en el futuro\u201d, dijo Cosgrove.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Madera Unified School District celebrated its 60th anniversary at its oldest school, and is looking forward to the next 60 years.

She brings more than 25 years of background in healthcare leadership, critical care, and hospital operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe hospital was closed for two and a half years, and everyone saw the impact,\u201d she said. \u201cSo, bringing it back up and making sure it gives back everything the community deserves is the role of myself and my team.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She expressed that her goal for the hospital is to provide the best healthcare possible for patients, for families, and for all partners in the community, offering emergency, inpatient, surgery, and diagnostics. It is important for patients to stay close to home whenever it is safe to do so. She emphasized the need to work together as partners in the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe have seen the numbers when the hospital was closed,\u201d she said. \u201cWe still continue to see the need.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sidhu and her team are reaching out to the community to see that the hospital regains the needed trust in its services. One of her main points of focus is to restore that trust so that the community sees the hospital as a partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMadera Community Hospital is exactly what the name says,\u201d she said. \u201cWe\u2019re a community hospital. We provide acute care for Madera and the surrounding communities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She talked about three aspects of serving Madera as a hospital: Community, Emergency Care Hub, and Growing Capabilities. She explained each of these and what they mean to Madera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cCommunity means we\u2019re not a distant system,\u201d she said. \u201cOur patients are your neighbors, your coworkers, your teachers, your family, our nurses, technicians, physicians. They all live here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Emergency Care Hub is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, serving local families who depend on it. It also serves EMS partners and neighboring towns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe\u2019re here to serve, and we have to continue doing that,\u201d she said. \u201cFamilies who\u2019ve had a loved one in any ICU knows how critical it is to be close to home because you just don\u2019t know when things change. We have surgery and operating rooms so procedures can be done safely locally and do not require a long trip.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Madera Community Hospital is now able to do advanced X-ray imaging, nuclear medicine, and MRI. A 3-D Mammography machine has also been installed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTwo key things that I want to really emphasize today is some moments and celebrations that Madera Community Hospital was able to do,\u201d Sidhu said. \u201cThe first is our role as a base hospital for emergency services.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As of September 14, Madera Community Hospital now has a Base Hospital designation, and is working with the Central California EMS agency, also called CCEMSA. This provides 24-hour physician and Mobile Intensive Care Nurses direction for field EMS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIt is not a trophy that we received. It\u2019s a responsibility that we took over as a hospital,\u201d Sidhu said. \u201cWhen a paramedic calls us from the field, someone on our team has to pick up and give clear, sound guidance every time, day or night. Our team has trained and prepared for that, and that I\u2019m proud of.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The designation of a base hospital strengthens the radio and medical control so that ambulance crews get real-time guidance for critically or injured patients. It keeps more advanced decision-making local.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">She explained that this matters to three groups of people. It really matters to patients, EMS partners, and for our community. It means faster response times and coordinated care, from the scene to the hospital. Treatment starts early and the patient is directed to the right destination and the right treatment path in an emergency. Those early decisions can shape the entire outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhen care can safely stay here, it means fewer transfer outs. That helps the patient and it helps the family who would otherwise be making a stressful drive to a hospital far from home,\u201d Sidhu said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe second is our primary stroke center path,\u201d she said. \u201cWe passed the survey, and the formal certification is pending. And that is huge. It\u2019s a survey that looks at every single point of contact in the hospital, from when the patient first touches us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is a great accomplishment that the hospital passed the survey. It means Madera Community Hospital\u2019s health care team is ready and able to start the primary stroke center.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cA stroke is a true time critical emergency,\u201d Sidhu said. \u201cWhen a stroke happens the brain is losing blood flow and every minute counts. The faster a patient is recognized and treated, the better the chance of recovery. That\u2019s why stroke programs are built around speed and coordination. I\u2019m so proud to share that Madera Community Hospital passed the survey. We\u2019re just waiting for the certification from the state.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sidhu says she is trying to educate the community about the hospital, its services, and the critical nature of having the hospital in high function in Madera. She is working on going to different local community events, churches, and schools to build awareness and confidence in Madera Community Hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe are investing in all the basic needs that we need to provide to the community and any additional advanced services that we can bring to the hospital,\u201d she said. \u201cHaving just the stroke primary certification opens the door to treat your primary stroke patients. Then if the need is for higher level, that will be available immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the programs implemented that is building more confidence and trust in the hospital is its post discharge follow-up. It began with surgical patients, and now there are phone calls made to the patients or families after discharge, just to do a wellness check. This gives them the opportunity to discuss their medications, or follow up on appointments, which opens up other doors.  Sometimes they don\u2019t remember their follow-up appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNow with the stroke program too, we will be calling every stroke patient after they\u2019re discharged as well because that is very critical that they follow up,\u201d Sidhu said. \u201cThat is huge for stroke patients.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sidhu then offered a time for questions and comments from the attendees at the meeting. The comments were positive, as people talked about personal recent experiences with the hospital under new management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>So approximately how many people are employed now at the hospital?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sidhu:<\/strong> 852, and growing. We have 30 more in orientation. The nursing workforce is, of course, the biggest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>How does the process go for hiring local versus traveling?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sidhu:<\/strong> I\u2019m so proud we do not have any staffing or any registry. It\u2019s all organic staff local. That\u2019s the investment. When you live in the community, when you\u2019re part of it, it just comes naturally. You want to give back and there\u2019s a commitment. There\u2019s an actual investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>We have great Camarena Health, and we have a hospital. So, how do we decide if we\u2019re going to Camarena for urgent care or if we\u2019re going to the hospital for emergency?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sidhu:<\/strong> Anytime you cannot decide if it\u2019s an emergency or not, you should always seek emergency care. Then, if it looks like it is something that can be followed through an outpatient Camarena Health, the ED providers will direct. You just don\u2019t want to lose any time if it is critical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The hospital closed, I understand, for financial reasons. What has changed now, or where are we getting funds so we have the confidence that it\u2019s not going to go under again? What changed?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sidhu:<\/strong> You are probably aware about the hospital distress loan. That helped really build the hospital back up, and that\u2019s what helped us get on track. And now, with patient population, we\u2019re able to support that. We are under a management company that supports us. And now we have services that are especially for stroke, and the base hospital designation. That\u2019s where the support is coming from. And at this point, I\u2019m so confident with the volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, we\u2019re a 103-bed hospital. Our inpatient census is 90-plus. When I looked back at the history for Madera Community Hospital, the average census was in the 30s. It was 40 during COVID time. So, to be at 90, is huge, and the ED volume has tripled. But the time is still less than 30 minutes. We\u2019re able to see the patients less than 30 minutes because the efficiency is what will make sure the patients do come back. If I\u2019m going to a hospital, if it\u2019s not efficient, no matter what services they have, it doesn\u2019t matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Is there any hope in the future to get back into the baby delivery business?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sidhu:<\/strong> Right now, we\u2019re trying to get the basic services. It looks like chest pain cardiac is huge right now in the community. We\u2019re seeing a lot of patients that are going through myocardial infarction, which is heart attack, and time is muscle. So our next project, we\u2019re trying to concentrate on chest pain, get cardiac care. Getting those services is important. And then, of course, after that, we\u2019ll look at the maternity and child care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>How\u2019s the pipeline going for kids going into nursing from high school to a college and on?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sidhu:<\/strong> We are open to doing externship, internship. We\u2019re looking at the schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If we can instill the giving feeling in our youth, we hope they will want to give back. Whether it be healing, whether it be, to be a nurse or a nursing professional. Health care is huge. Community is huge. We can do community events for awareness.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Chief Executive Officer of Madera Community Hospital, Dr. Sony Sidhu, recently spoke at a Madera Noon Rotary Club meeting to give updates on the local hospital, and to share what advancements have been made and services that are provided.

Su Ley SAVE es tan intencionalmente anti-estadounidense que los verg\u00fcenzados senadores republicanos se niegan a aprobarla. La evidente estafa de papeletas enviadas por correo de Trump fue rechazada por el Tribunal Supremo, que est\u00e1 muy influenciado por los republicanos. Y el senador republicano John Kennedy dijo recientemente que el Congreso ni siquiera puede aprobar gas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump, en su reciente convenci\u00f3n del Partido Republicano en Dallas, exigi\u00f3 a sus seguidores este compromiso: \u201cSaldr\u00e9 con mi familia, con mis amigos; lo har\u00e9 de cualquier manera \u2014no me importa si estoy registrado o no; voy a intentar estafar como la diabla, como hacen ellos; nunca han habido estafadores m\u00e1s grandes, no les importa\u201d. Eso fue despu\u00e9s de ofrecer un soborno ilegal de $5.000 a cada votante estadounidense para mantener a los republicanos en el poder. \u00bfQuiz\u00e1s recuerden que gan\u00f3 una reelecci\u00f3n nacional con 7 millones de votos menos que su oponente?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Los estadounidenses dicen con abrumadora mayor\u00eda a los encuestadores que nuestro sistema de gobierno est\u00e1 roto; que demasiados pol\u00edticos son cobardes que solo piensan en sus propios intereses; que esforzarse mucho y seguir las reglas parece ser para los tontos; que la mitad de los electores aptos de Estados Unidos no se molesta en cumplir con su deber patri\u00f3tico al votar de manera informada; y que nuestro gobierno federal est\u00e1 dirigido por una familia criminal que acumula miles de millones de d\u00f3lares mientras demasiados estadounidenses no pueden pagar los costos cada vez mayores de alimentos, servicios p\u00fablicos, transporte y vivienda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ya hace mucho tiempo que dejamos atr\u00e1s los desacuerdos frustrantes pero posiblemente razonables sobre cuestiones pol\u00edticas, como las tasas impositivas, los subsidios para cuidado infantil y la atenci\u00f3n sanitaria. El \u201ccynismo propio\u201d manchado de corrupci\u00f3n y la arrogancia de la ignorancia ahuyentan la raz\u00f3n y el patriotismo. Las cenizas de aquel campamento de Kumbaya que arrebata marshmallows se apagaron cuando Trump sonri\u00f3 al mirar hacia arriba desde el elevador dorado hace once a\u00f1os para anunciar su deseo de remodelar Estados Unidos a su imagen propia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Estados Unidos lleva 250 a\u00f1os trabajando para fusionar qui\u00e9nes somos con qui\u00e9nes aspiramos a ser. Ha sido una batalla en las sombras por la alma de Estados Unidos que ahora se ha extendido a nuestras calles y dividido a las familias estadounidenses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Y, de manera ir\u00f3nica, es gracias al apocalipsis MAGA que ahora realmente necesitamos hacer de Estados Unidos grande de nuevo.

En las primeras escuelas primarias se ense\u00f1aban \u201clectura, escritura y aritm\u00e9tica\u2018. Tambi\u00e9n se daba mucha importancia a la educaci\u00f3n religiosa. Y los colegios, hace unos doscientos a\u00f1os, tambi\u00e9n eran bastante diferentes. De hecho, tres de nuestras ocho universidades de la Liga de las Ivy League (Harvard, Princeton y Yale) comenzaron como seminarios para formar cl\u00e9rigos.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Durante el siglo XIX, la demanda de universidades comenz\u00f3 a expandirse. La atenci\u00f3n se centr\u00f3 en las artes liberales, es decir, literatura, filosof\u00eda, m\u00fasica, historia del arte y as\u00ed sucesivamente. Surgieron especializaciones para satisfacer la necesidad de la naci\u00f3n de personas con t\u00edtulos profesionales, como m\u00e9dicos, dentistas y abogados. A excepci\u00f3n de algunas escuelas de comercio, toda esta formaci\u00f3n se impart\u00eda en aulas, con ex\u00e1menes y la entrega de calificaciones. Durante quiz\u00e1s 150 a\u00f1os o m\u00e1s, este fue el patr\u00f3n de educaci\u00f3n estadounidense esperado y aceptado.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Desafiando la tradici\u00f3n<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hoy, y ciertamente en un futuro muy pr\u00f3ximo, gran parte de lo mencionado podr\u00eda cambiar. Dada la naturaleza de la nueva fuerza laboral, el aula, especialmente la de las universidades, puede no ser el mejor lugar para que todas las personas se preparen para entrar en el mercado laboral. Esta teor\u00eda ser\u00e1 puesta a prueba al inicio del pr\u00f3ximo a\u00f1o acad\u00e9mico, al menos para algunos estudiantes excepcionales.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Por supuesto, como educadora jubilada que ense\u00f1\u00f3 en la universidad durante 36 a\u00f1os, tengo un sesgo. Algunas personas que ya demostraron un aprendizaje superior al final del bachillerato podr\u00edan beneficiarse de alguna forma alternativa de \u201ceducaci\u00f3n superior\u201d. Para la gran mayor\u00eda de los estudiantes, la universidad contin\u00faa el proceso de socializaci\u00f3n mientras nuestros cerebros contin\u00faan desarroll\u00e1ndose hasta los veinte a\u00f1os de edad. La universidad tambi\u00e9n introduce nuevos conceptos y m\u00e9todos de an\u00e1lisis. Tambi\u00e9n allana el camino para el aprendizaje a lo largo de la vida, que se ha vuelto cada vez m\u00e1s importante a medida que el ritmo del cambio contin\u00faa aceler\u00e1ndose. Por lo tanto, uno de mis otros sesgos es que las universidades p\u00fablicas deber\u00edan estar abiertas a todos los candidatos cualificados.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pero con todo esto en cuenta, Kevin Haynes, que escribe para Inc., nos informa: \u201cUna de las empresas de capital de riesgo m\u00e1s importantes de Silicon Valley apuesta $35 millones en que la pr\u00f3xima generaci\u00f3n de emprendedores tecnol\u00f3gicos podr\u00eda ser m\u00e1s beneficiosa si omit\u00eda la universidad y empezaba sus propias empresas\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<h3>Horowitz Andreessen Academy<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Andreessen Horowitz, m\u00e1s conocida como a16z, es una firma de capital de riesgo privada que tiene su sede en Menlo Park. A finales de septiembre, anunci\u00f3 que est\u00e1 proporcionando el respaldo financiero para la Horowitz Andreessen Academy. La academia, ubicada en San Francisco, eventualmente se convertir\u00e1 en una organizaci\u00f3n educativa con fines de lucro. Sin embargo, la primera clase admitida no pagar\u00e1 matr\u00edcula ni tarifas. Sin embargo, ser\u00e1 responsable de sus propios gastos de vivienda y transporte. La H-A Academy planea recibir su primera clase de aproximadamente $50 estudiantes en septiembre de 2027, seg\u00fan Haynes.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Junto con sus socios fundadores, a16z recaud\u00f3 un total de $42 millones para poner en marcha la empresa. Entre sus socios se encuentran Anduril, Anthropic, Coinbase, Google, Meta, Nvidia, OpenAI, Palantir, Replit y Stripe. Seg\u00fan Haynes, \u201cProporcionar\u00e1n recursos, ayudar\u00e1n a desarrollar cursos y potencialmente ofrecer\u00e1n a los estudiantes la oportunidad de trabajar con sus equipos\u201d. Mientras que al obtener experiencia real en algunas de estas empresas de alta tecnolog\u00eda, los estudiantes tambi\u00e9n realizar\u00e1n algunos cursos, como \u201cInvestigaci\u00f3n y Modelos de IA\u201d y \u201cLa Geometr\u00eda de la Fortuna\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Haynes escribe que no habr\u00e1 ex\u00e1menes, deberes ni calificaciones, pero los estudiantes pasar\u00e1n la mayor parte de su tiempo \u201cdesarrollando ideas de startups y trabajando en proyectos independientes\u201d. La academia proporcionar\u00e1 m\u00e1s de 200 mentores y ponentes invitados, incluido Sam Altman, director ejecutivo de OpenAI, para aportar su experiencia a los estudiantes.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gagan Biyani, director general de la academia, seg\u00fan afirma Haynes, dijo: \u201cLa gran diferencia entre asistir a la academia y asistir a la universidad es que no vamos a dar prioridad a tus notas. Vamos a dar prioridad a la prueba de trabajo\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<h3>Prepar\u00e1ndonos para el futuro<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Se cita a Ben Horowitz diciendo: \u201cLa formaci\u00f3n que funcion\u00f3 en la Revoluci\u00f3n Industrial no se aplicar\u00e1 perfectamente a la revoluci\u00f3n de la inteligencia artificial, por lo que alguien tiene que idear c\u00f3mo formar a una persona para este nuevo mundo.\u201d El objetivo final de la academia es \u201cayudar a los estudiantes a aprender a construir, que es la habilidad m\u00e1s importante en la era de la inteligencia artificial.\u201d En ese sentido, los estudiantes tendr\u00e1n sus propios proyectos a realizar. Pero recibir\u00e1n mucha ayuda. Todos los estudiantes recibir\u00e1n \u201cm\u00e1s de $50,000 cr\u00e9ditos inform\u00e1ticos y un presupuesto de $5,000 para viajes y investigaci\u00f3n\u2026\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Esto es educaci\u00f3n por hacer, no por sentarse y tomar notas. De hecho, me recuerda m\u00e1s a la escuela de posgrado que a los primeros cuatro a\u00f1os de la universidad. En la escuela de posgrado, los estudiantes m\u00e1s o menos lideran las clases, y el profesor est\u00e1 presente para ayudar con las presentaciones y hacer sugerencias sobre la investigaci\u00f3n de los estudiantes. De nuevo, se trata realmente de educaci\u00f3n por hacer, pero se lleva a cabo en un aula y implica la asignaci\u00f3n de calificaciones.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">La H-A Academy no est\u00e1 acreditada, al igual que los colegios. En consecuencia, los estudiantes no salen con cr\u00e9ditos ni t\u00edtulos transferibles. Pero Haynes hace una importante observaci\u00f3n final: dice que los estudiantes \u201cpodr\u00edan salir con algo a\u00fan m\u00e1s valioso: una puerta de acceso privilegiada a Silicon Valley\u201d.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A partir de septiembre de 2028, la academia ya no ser\u00e1 gratuita. Biyani dijo que el costo de la matr\u00edcula ser\u00e1 similar al de una universidad privada de \u00e9lite. Y aqu\u00ed entra en juego mi tercera tendencia: los estudiantes que pueden pagar la matr\u00edcula de una universidad privada de \u00e9lite generalmente son hijos e hijas de las familias m\u00e1s ricas de Estados Unidos. As\u00ed que, aunque la Academia H-A pueda bien estar \u201ceducando para el futuro\u2019, tambi\u00e9n podr\u00eda ser la f\u00f3rmula para perpetuar una oligarqu\u00eda que ya domina la econom\u00eda estadounidense. Dar a un pu\u00f1ado de estudiantes de las familias m\u00e1s ricas una \u201cv\u00eda privilegiada\u201d para ocupar cargos importantes en nuestra econom\u00eda de alta tecnolog\u00eda en r\u00e1pida evoluci\u00f3n parece ser contrario al ideal de un sistema capitalista de mercado abierto.
