UI welcomes new students

New students of state-run University of Indonesia (UI) will
get a chance to get to know their rector and senior peers in an
orientation program due to run from Aug. 18 through Aug. 25.

Entering students will be asked to draft a paper on student
exchange programs and to participate in social activities, while
they have also been asked to bring instant noodles and sugar to
be given to the needy.

During the week-long orientation, freshmen will be required to
wear white clothing.

As part of the orientation program, it is recommended that
they join a series of choir rehearsals after the ceremony marking
Independence Day on Aug. 17.

"The choir will perform at the farewell party for graduating
students," said Dani, who plans to major in tourism.
