The impact of computer coding on modern life is so universal that many of us don't think twice about it! But behind every social media post, streaming service selection, and smartphone app is, of course, code: a system of functions, commands, and rules written in a particular language to make our digital technologies function smoothly. Even with the rise of artificial intelligence and its increasing power to help write and edit computer code, human coders are still behind the scenes.
For many students, learning basic coding can be an empowering experience that teaches a wide range of skills: creativity, problem-solving, perseverance, confidence, and more. Teaching coding to your students helps them to better understand how the modern world works, and perhaps, someday, shape the digital future.

Beyond the Advance Presentation for By the Book 9John Rodzvilla
In June 2020, L.L. McKinney, a Black author of young adult novels, began the #publishingpaidme hashtag to create a discussion on how the publishing industry treats Black authors: “what they’re paid. What the marketing is. How the books are treated. How one Black book not reaching its parameters casts a shadow on all Black books and all Black authors, and that’s not the same for our white counterparts.” (Grady 2020) McKinney’s call resulted in an online discussion across 65,000 tweets between authors of all races and the creation of a Google spreadsheet that collected information on over 2,000 titles.
While the conversation was originally meant to discuss the ethical value of book publishing, it became an economic assessment by authors of how publishers treated authors of color and women authors without a full analysis of the data collected. This paper would present the data collected from relevant tweets and the Google database to show not only the range of advances among participating authors split out by their race, gender, sexual orientation and the genre of their work, but also the publishers’ treatment of their titles in terms of deal announcements and pre-pub attention in industry publications. The paper is based on a multi-year project of cleaning and evaluating the collected data to assess what it reveals about the habits and strategies of American publishers in acquiring and promoting titles from a diverse group of authors across the literary, non-fiction, children’s, mystery, romance, and SFF genres.

The Jewish Trinity : Sabbath,Shekinah and Sanctuary 4.pdfJackieSparrow3
we may assume that God created the cosmos to be his great temple, in which he rested after his creative work. Nevertheless, his special revelatory presence did not fill the entire earth yet, since it was his intention that his human vice-regent, whom he installed in the garden sanctuary, would extend worldwide the boundaries of that sanctuary and of God’s presence. Adam, of course, disobeyed this mandate, so that humanity no longer enjoyed God’s presence in the little localized garden. Consequently, the entire earth became infected with sin and idolatry in a way it had not been previously before the fall, while yet in its still imperfect newly created state. Therefore, the various expressions about God being unable to inhabit earthly structures are best understood, at least in part, by realizing that the old order and sanctuary have been tainted with sin and must be cleansed and recreated before God’s Shekinah presence, formerly limited to heaven and the holy of holies, can dwell universally throughout creation

For the crazy ones and misfits - the people who believe they can
fundamentally change the world with technology. The time is ripe.
2. Horizons One
Program Overview
Letter from Founders
We live in an era in which tech and software continue to eat the world. Learning to code has been
and will continue to be one of the most valuable skills of the 21st century. From the largest financial
institutions to remote villages in Africa, even the most arcane parts of society are being disrupted by
technology. Products that required teams of engineers to build and maintain 10 years ago can now
be built by one person with a computer. Now more than ever, Marc Andreessen’s prophecy that
“software is eating the world” is coming to life.
We created Horizons to help students launch successful careers in this new world.
Our 3 month summer and 4 month study abroad programs are on track to create hundreds of
alumni in 2017. We’ve laid a foundation for a community of engineers, designers, product managers,
marketers, and entrepreneurs - the future leaders in technology. With alumni winning global
hackathons, starting companies and landing promising opportunities at companies like Google,
Slack, J.P. Morgan, Squarespace, EA Games and the Stanford Research Institute, we are excited
about the steps ahead.
Today, we use our 3 & 4 month programs to transform our students’ skills and perspectives.
However, we believe there is an opportunity to do much more. Hence we created the Horizons
One. We are rebuilding higher education in technology. We designed this program with a single
goal in mind - to build tomorrow’s leaders in technology. Our singular focus on this goal results in an
experience unlike that which any other academic institution has to offer. Horizons graduates will
leave the program with strong problem-solving abilities, engineering experience at real companies,
broad technical exposure, focused technical expertise, industry perspective beyond their years, and
world-class communication skills.
Furthermore, Horizons One is tuition-free. By lowering the barriers to participation, we will continue
to attract amazing talent from across the world. Prior programming experience is not a prerequisite
for our program - but focus, curiosity, and resolve are.
If you are reading this letter, it’s because we would like to consider you for the inaugural cohort of
our Horizons One. We are thrilled at the prospect of working with you and taking you to the next
level of technological understanding.
It will be an amazing ride and we look forward to welcoming you aboard.
Best,
Abhi, Darwish and Edward

Tuition
We have made promising careers accessible to everyone
Tuition Free
Horizons One is tuition free.
Students are expected to cover their own cost of housing, food and transportation
throughout the program. Horizons will use income from the 2nd year of work to cover
tuition.
We will either collect tuition via an Income Share Agreement or a direct partnership
with the company.
Living Subsidy
Students who need financial assistance with housing / living costs may apply for
need-based aid. We will factor in a family's income and a student’s past financial aid
status in determining an amount for the living subsidy. Living subsidies can range
from $0 - $1500/month.
Students who receive a living subsidy will be use their final specialization term as a
work-study term. Students can work with the Horizons team during their summer
internship as teaching assistants, pursue freelance work we provide, or contribute
their internship income to further help with living costs.
Deposit
Students accepted into the program will be asked to make a deposit ranging from
$800 - $8,000. This deposit will be returned upon completion of the 1st year of the
program. The deposit amount will be determined based on a student’s demonstrated
financial need.
Leaving the program
Students who chose to leave the program in their first year may do so. However, they
will be responsible for a prorated tuition of $40,000. The deposit can count towards
this tuition amount.

If switching to computer science was the best decision I made in college, taking
Horizons was probably a close second. To think that three guys could start a company
that absolutely changes how I think about my future -- it's really an incredible thing.

Horizons changed my trajectory. I was always passionate about entrepreneurship and
tech, but I wasn’t technical. Horizons helped me cultivate the right skills and mindset to
pursue my dream in tech.
Looking back at my 12 weeks there, I realize that I’ve learned the most I’ve ever had
and probably ever will in such a short period of time. For the first time in my 14 years of
formal education, I wanted to learn.
Steven Lin

I chose to apply for Horizons because I realized that, after two years of college, my
classes alone were not doing enough to expose me to the tech industry and get a
broad view of my options after college. 12 straight weeks of hands-on learning allowed
me to gain the knowledge and skills a real software engineer needs, and working
together on a project with a team and a real client gave me valuable work experience
I could add to my resume.
