getting the information Dafiyah immediately prepares for the ospek period next week.

* ONE WEEK LATER *

The dawn of the sun was shining in the morning and the weather today looked very bright, after preparing Dafiyah for breakfast.

and immediately go to UNS so that it is not too late.

Right at 07.00 am Dafiyah was on public transport while the distance from Dafiyah house to UNS was around 500 AD.

after up to 30 minutes later Dafiyah arrived at UNS and she immediately saw the location plan of the campus in Mading and did not forget also he asked the campus security.

Dafiyah: excuse me sir sorry I want to ask where is the direction of the law faculty room?

security: oooh it is in the position of the faculty of social and political science

Dafiyah: well sir thank you very much.

security : equally mbak.

Dafiyah immediately rushed to the direction of the law school room and he immediately

put bags and items that have been told before by the lecturer and senior brother.

there, besides getting new friends, he also met outside his other faculties.

senior brother also told that junior sisters are expected to gather in the campus field.

to follow the direction of senior brother, the period of ospek was started and there were also games given by senior brother.

Senior sisters: the younger siblings are all expected to gather on the campus grounds soon

the other juniors went straight out of the room and went to the campus field to follow the directions and introductions from the lecturers and other senior brothers.

Here are 7 things that are identical to the implementation of OSEK. Perhaps, there are some traditions of OSEP positive past and still worthy today.

Clothes with Unusual Trinkets

Before the day of the implementation of OSEK arrived, the new students (maba) are usually gathered by the seniors to be given a variety of briefings, one of the usual problems about the clothes they should use when talking about OSEK.

Not only the color and model of the uniform are arranged, trinkets that 'decorate' their clothes are usually determined by the seniors. Like hats from pieces of plastic balls, necklaces and bracelets from raffia rope decorated with candy hangers for bonding, ribbons of ribbons in line with the faculty flag, to nameplates from used cardboard.

While in the campus environment, this string attribute should not be removed by new students until the time of OSEK ends. Extensions vary, some are only three to seven days, there is also a campus or faculty that runs OSEK for up to one month.

Uniform Hair Model

Not enough with the unusual knick-knacks attached to the clothes, senior brothers also often assign new students to drag their haircuts. The male, usually will be told to trim his hair with army-style cuts, there are even seniors who are told to trim their hair alias bald.

Eating Together Full of Rules

OSEK usually lasts from morning to afternoon. When lunch hour arrives, it is not uncommon for seniors to tell OSEK participants to have lunch together on the grounds of strengthening familiarity. However, during a familiar lunch it is not necessarily free from some rules made by the seniors.

Such as the approved meal time (only five minutes), sitting cross-legged and standing while putting food into the mouth, no sound, and no food should be left.

Play Various Games

Although the rules about super short meal times are identical to the impression of hazing, OSEK activities are not only annoying really. On the sidelines of activities, the OSEK committee usually invites new students to play a variety of creative and exciting games. There are games that are provided to train coordination and teamwork, there are also games that are played to help relieve drowsiness.

Getting to know Lecturers and Various SMEs

Not infrequently people consider OSEK activities are only a waste of time, energy, and material. The impression is incomplete. During attending OSEK, new students will also be given the opportunity to get acquainted with some lecturers who will teach them during the lecture period.

Knowing the character of the lecturers complete with a glimpse of the subjects they will teach, it will certainly be very useful to minimize the comfort received by new students ahead of the first days of college.

Not only getting acquainted with lecturers, new students will also introduce various Student Activity Units (SMEs) level of majors, faculty, and universities. Various SMEs are very useful for students in developing their interests and talents.

Time Limits Chased Tasks from Senior

The lecture period has not begun, it does not mean that new students are free from assignments. During the future of OSEK, seniors often provide diverse tasks. Starting from individual tasks such as writing a variety of articles or papers with a particular theme, to group tasks such as making works/projects according to the expertise of the department. The Department of Urban Planning (Planology) for example, will do senior planning to make a renovation of the campus park, or Journalism major, will be assigned to make video journalism work for example.

Tasks that are useful are positive for new students, but do not need new students who are burdened with these tasks, because only the work time is relatively very short.

Familiarity Night

The last day of the OSEK period is a highly anticipated time for new students. Not only because it is diverse during OSEK in the end, but also because closing OSEK usually supports with fun celebrations or ceremonies, such as familiarity night events for example.

In the event that is usually held on this weekend, there are no more rules about uniforms that are requested by hair models. All new students can be free to be themselves that night. The impression of seniority that was inherent during the time of OSEK, began to fade and disappear in the night of familiarity.

The tradition of a night of familiarity in each department and campus is certainly different. In general, this event is usually colored with various entertainment such as music and dinner together.

after a few days Dafiyah followed the ospek period he was told that next Sunday only he began to enter the campus as usual.
