Confidencial published a personal reflection titled "CONFIDENCIAL, mi escuela (mi casa)," where the author recounts their early aspirations to become a journalist. The journey began in 2009 when they enrolled in the Social Communication program at the Universidad Centroamericana (UCA).

From the outset, the author felt a disconnect with the program's broad "integral social communicators" curriculum. Their singular focus was on journalism, and the university's approach felt too general. This led to a desire for a more specialized path within the communication field.

The article serves as a nostalgic look back at the author's formative years in education and their unwavering commitment to journalism. It highlights the personal significance of their time at UCA, framing it as both an academic institution and a formative "home" for their burgeoning career aspirations.
