The main session, “University Life vs. High School”, was delivered by Muhammad Teuku Luthfi Fazli, a 2021 Communication Science student, highlighting the key differences between high school and university life.
In addition, the new students were introduced to the Communication Science Student Executive Board (BEMP IKOM), the Communication Science Student Legislative Body (BLMP IKOM), the cohort leader, and the planned student orientation and training activities.
