Sumario:In the Basel period entitled conferences “On The future of Our Educational Institutions”, Nietzsche reflects on the state of education in the Germany of his time and risks diagnosing the future of educational institutions for considering them as places that privilege mass education over the formation of genius, a topic that Nietzsche tackles in The Third untimely Meditation "Schopenhauer as Educator". One approach that privileges the massification of knowledge over individual capacities has as a consequence the implementation of institutions of culture servile to the State with mercantile educational standards that worship the ease and speed with it is produced. Standards in which specialization and erudition are prioritized, leaving life and philosophical reflection completely aside. The diagnosis made by Nietzsche is doubly untimely, first because it denounces the cultural decadence of the educational institutions of his time and second because this denunciation applies to our time. Currently the educational panorama is quite discouraging considering that not only in Latin America, but also around the world, there are many institutions whose only objective is the automata formation and about the future is concerned, it does not seem possible to predict new horizons or changes.
