Reaktualisasi Peran Mahasiswa sebagai Agen Perubahan dan Pemberdayaan dalam Masyarakat

Abstract

Students must realize the importance of the relationship between an individual and the society. Man is belongs to a society, and students are an important part of it. Students cannot live in complete isolation from the community-life. Even a school-going student is bound to have links with other people who together form a society. They can play an important role in improving and strengthening the society. The simple fact is that united we stand, and divided we fall. The society is the manifestation of that united existence, and the students are part of the society. Therefore, men and women of all ages and professions should do their best to serve the society. Studying is the main occupation of students. But, being youthful and energetic, they can engage themselves in various forms of social work in their spare time, and in moments of crisis. They should be enthusiastic about opening blood donation camps, founding gymnasiums, blind schools, health centers, libraries, etc. Such enterprises benefit a large number of people, and help in maintaining the society in a good condition.
