Some of the competitions included tug-of-war, pickleball, and clog-making. Participation in these various competitions served as an effort to strengthen togetherness, sportsmanship, and a spirit of collaboration on campus.
The Director of the Vocational Education Program at the Universitas Indonesia, Dr. Safrin Arifin, SKM., S.St., M.Sc., expressed his appreciation for the participation of the UI academic community in this year’s UI Anniversary celebrations. Safrin said, “The involvement of the UI Vocational academic community in the 76th Anniversary activities of the Universitas Indonesia is a form of our concern for the physical and mental health of all campus personnel. Through these sports activities and health checks, we want to emphasize that the productivity and quality of educational services must go hand in hand with the well-being of human resources.”
