Palomar health sends supplies to UkraineOne more warm day before cooler weather arrives this weekend. The heat advisory that’s been in effect for San Diego county’s coastal areas and valleys expires tonight at 6pm. The heat is expected to peak today with temps in the triple digits in some areas. Cooler weather is in store for the weekend, with a chance of rain and even mountain snow early next week.
Those looking to contribute to Palomar Health and SSUBI’s mission in Ukraine can donate on Palomar’s website under “Medical Missions”Protocols are changing at state-run COVID testing sites.. KPBS Health Reporter Matt Hoffman says the move comes as the county is refocusing its pandemic efforts-- Legendary Tejano singer Selena Quintanilla Perez died 27-years ago… devoted fans remembered her passing on March 31st. Today, Selena has inspired a class curriculum at San Diego State.
The sounds of Selena are now part of a college curriculum. Professor NATHIAN SHAE RODRIGUEZ pitched the idea for a Selena class to the administration at San Diego State pre-pandemic...it is now a permanent elective offered in the spring semester. Dr. Nate, as students call him…is a fan and fellow Texan who grew up with a heavy influence from the Tejano singer.
The term ‘pocha’ is an important vocabulary word featured in class discussions. A pocha is a person caught between two cultures…not completely able to speak Spanish and not completely comfortable in the English-speaking culture…that was Selena…and Karina Bazarte is an SDSU senior who can relate. Karina’s Mexican parents thought they helped her by taking her from the barrio and enrolling her in schools with mostly white students.
