Friday, May 8, 2020 Friday, May 8, 2020 THANK A TEACHER In honor of Teacher Appreciation Week, please make sure your OCSA teachers know how much they mean to you by sending notes of appreciation and words of kindness. We miss being together, and small notes of thanks can have a huge impact. Our OCSA teachers are amazing! CONSERVATORY END-OF-YEAR SURVEYS At the end of each school year, OCSA administrators survey parents and students regarding their experience in their respective arts conservatory programs. Although students are not currently on campus for their conservatory classes, it is still valuable to collect information to evaluate the 2019- 2020 in-person conservatory experience. As a result, this year’s survey will focus on the conservatory experience prior to the school closure that began on Friday, March 13th. Survey results are carefully reviewed by directors and administrators each year and are vital to the evolution and development of OCSA's conservatory programs. This survey should only take 3-5 minutes to complete. If you have not done so already, please consider taking our 2019-2020 Conservatory Survey. Students completing the survey should click here, and parents completing the survey should click here. Thank you for your time and continued support of OCSA’s arts conservatory programs! AP EXAMS BEGIN NEXT WEEK As previously communicated, this year’s AP exams will be administered between Monday, May 11th and Friday, May 22nd. Please click here to view the AP exam schedule. All students taking an AP exam should review the resources below in order to ensure a positive testing experience. Good luck on your exams! • 2020 AP Testing Guide • 2020 AP Exam Overview Video • 2020 AP Exam Demo Site • What Students Need on Exam Day As a reminder, the College Board has waived the cancellation fee for unused exams this year; therefore, any student who cancels their AP exam can be issued a full refund.

Tanto tempo fa, quando ancora non esistevano gli schermi giganteschi, i prati finti e le ragazze pon pon, né compensi vertiginosi e sponsor miliardari, il football era giocato solo per passione. E i suoi giocatori erano rozzi e ignoranti, volgari e duri di cuore. Siamo negli anni ’20. Dodge Connolly (GEORGE CLOONEY) è un esuberante campione di football, uno sport nascente che attrae pochi tifosi, rissosi e ubriaconi, che non concepiscono di dover pagare una fortuna per assistere a una partita. Il football è ancora un gioco senza regole, che spesso finisce a cazzotti.

  • From Marcus Welby, M.D. to the Resident: the Changing Portrayal of Physicians in Tv Medical Dramas
    RMC Original JMM ISSN electrónico: 1885-5210 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.14201/rmc202016287102 FROM MARCUS WELBY, M.D. TO THE RESIDENT: THE CHANGING PORTRAYAL OF PHYSICIANS IN TV MEDICAL DRAMAS Desde Marcus Welby, M.D. hasta The resident: los cambios en las representaciones de los médicos en las series de televisión Irene CAMBRA-BADII1; Elena GUARDIOLA2; Josep-E. BAÑOS2 1Cátedra de Bioética. Universitat de Vic – Universitat Central de Catalunya.2 Facultad de Medicina. Universitat de Vic – Universitat Central de Catalunya (Spain). e-mail: [email protected] Fecha de recepción: 9 July 2019 Fecha de aceptación: 5 September 2019 Fecha del Avance On-Line: Fecha de publicación: 1 June 2020 Summary Over the years, the way medical dramas represent health professionals has changed. When the first medical dramas were broadcasted, the main characters were good, peaceful, intelligent, competent, empathic, and successful physicians. One of the most famous, even outside the US, was Marcus Welby M.D. (1969-1976) of David Victor –which this year marks 50 years since its first emission. This depiction began to change in the mid-1990s. While maintaining the over positive image of medical doctors, TV series started to put more emphasis on their negative characteristics and difficulties in their interpersonal relationships, such asER (TV) by Michael Crichton (United States) and House MD (TV) by David Shore (United States). In these series, physicians were portrayed as arrogant, greedy, and adulterous, and their diagnostic and therapeutic errors were exposed. The last two series are The Good Doctor (TV) by David Shore (United States), with a resident of surgery with autism and Savant syndrome, and The Resident (TV) by Amy Holden Jones, Hayley Schore and Roshan Sethi (United States), where serious institutional problems appear.

Drawing on the retrospective nonlinear women’s narratives about Central America—including the writings of Claribel Alegría, Gioconda Belli, Demetria Martínez, and Ana Castillo—I argue that such testimonial texts re-intervene in the war of words, historical silencing, as cultural memories and timeless consciousness-raising tools. Contesting the claim that testimonio has an expiration date predicated on immediate crisis, my readings of mixed-genre testimonies such as Alegría’s Ashes of Izalco (1966) and Belli’s The Inhabited Woman (1988) together with newly written works like Martínez’s Confessions of a Berlitz-Tape Chicana (2005) and Castillo’s Psst: I Have Something to Tell You, Mi Amor (2005) reveal the ways in which wartime and postwar testimonial texts alike recover hidden histories related to the body from labor in the globalized garment industry, to sexual agency within revolutionary movements, to the inner war of ii depression, to torture traceable to the School of the Americas.
