In the framework of Eid al-Fitr 1445 H coupled with Syawalan, the Big Family of the Faculty of Cultural Sciences UGM consisting of lecturers, staff, part-timer, full-timer, and students of FIB attended the Syawalan event which was held on Wednesday, April 17, 2024 at the Open Stage of the Faculty of Cultural Sciences UGM. Starting from 08.00 until 10.30, this event began with a session of shaking hands and forgiveness by marching around the Margono building courtyard right after the registration desk at the south entrance of FIB. The atmosphere was warmly decorated with smiles from every invited guest who greeted each other. This agenda was very much in line with the theme of the event, namely Merajut Ukhuwah untuk Kemajuan FIB UGM.
In connection with the theme, the Dean of the Faculty of Cultural Sciences expressed his hope in his opening speech that in the future the FIB family would synergize well with each other to achieve other extraordinary achievements, considering that FIB had just received a major achievement where 4 of its departments entered the 200 world rankings and specifically Anthropology entered the world’s top 51 along with other anthropology study programs from world-renowned campuses. “Actually, we do not expect any awards, but thanks to the cooperation that we have built well to give the best so far, it has resulted in something to be proud of in the eyes of the world. Hopefully we can help each other maintain our achievements. Thank you to the seniors or predecessors who have worked together to build FIB, thank you to all who are currently trying, and hopefully our next generation can give their best to be able to continue and further advance FIB in the future,” said Prof. Dr. Setiadi, S.Sos., M.Si.
There were several other event agendas such as recitation of tilawah and sari tilawah, introduction of new lecturers and staff, a speech on the theme of syawalan wisdom presented by, Dr. Rudy Wiratama, S.I.P., M.A., and a prayer by Hamdan, M.A.. The event was also made lively by the distribution of various door prizes ranging from pots, stoves, sarongs, rice cookers, and many other interesting prizes. The event was closed by the MC by inviting invited guests to enjoy the lunch that had been provided. The dishes prepared include meatballs, lontong opor, young coconut ice, soup, and snacks that are delicious especially coupled with the togetherness created during the eating session together. It is hoped that with this event, the kinship within the Faculty of Cultural Sciences Universitas Gadjah Mada will become stronger and avoid conflict so that it can bring FIB forward together.
