Prof. Aquarini also reminded that the struggle for new students to be accepted at the FIB Unpad is not easy because they have to go through such a competitive selection. The new students are people who are chosen through selection mechanisms at the national and university levels. Therefore, we advise new students to be grateful for the blessing, by doing their best and seriously following the learning process at FIB Unpad, because new students are lucky people who are given the opportunity to study at the university level, especially at Unpad which has now become their alma mater.
This time, PMB was closed with a flashmob that was followed by all parties present, including the leaders of the Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Universitas Padjadjaran. The enthusiasm of new students during the flashmob added to the joy of closing PMB this time and gave the impression that there are times when we are serious about academic matters, there are also times when we have fun together and share happiness.
