Campus Activist
Being a student is a great thing for some Indonesian people who in fact are still living below the poverty line. Let alone study in a college, for a day's meal the less fortunate people still face difficulties because of the increasing level of life needs today. Therefore, many of us, or perhaps friends, relatives, neighbors and the surrounding community who are unable to teach their children on the grounds that there is no tuition. Well, from here the word "lucky" is born to yourself who is currently in college. It is a lucky parent or maybe yourself able to lecture until graduation later. So, being a student alone is enough to boast moreover to graduate and become a scholar and then get a bona fide job. If that happens then how many bonuses God gives to us.
However, lecture, graduate, married, work, is it enough to enjoy this one-time life ?? Do we already feel alive if what becomes a habit that has also been felt by hundreds and even millions of people who have experienced the same thing with what we feel now ?? meaning, be a student, then graduate, work on a company, get married and so on -is the usual thing that happens and we see in the lives of people we know. Is not life necessarily colored, especially when we process to be human especially when mengenyam college ??
Therefore, going back to the original context of this paper, there are many things that when you become an activist of a world (student activist) organization that most people see, feel, hear and live-unlike the worldview felt by activists. Not that any different. Campus activists are those who are genuinely guided by the dream of change and the height of knowledge that gives birth to truth and goodness for life that is directly and consciously active in it.
Thus, an activist is an individual engaged in the organization, both extra and intra-campus who have the awareness, the will and the hard work to fight for an idea, idea and belief in a truth that he gained from the awareness of the knowledge he gained through books, contemplation, a discussion involving the intellectual process in it. Popular examples such as Soe Hok Gie. One of the campus activists as well as nature lovers of UI. The prototype of this model activist becomes interesting when the storyline brings the simple idea of a student who is interested in the social conditions of his society at that time and actively in campaigning for what he believes to be a truth. An example of this campus model activist is approaching the 'kesjatiaan' a campus activist.
So it is not just a campus activist identified with demonstrations, meetings, smart talk, etc., but it is a basic value that he strives for, believes and then put into practice in the life of the organization he follows.
It must be admitted, likes or dislikes, we can divide the two typologies of activists as a basis for entering the world of campus activists. First, activists aka instant karbitan. In this context, activists in this category are activists without knowing and fully understanding what he is doing. Usually, this activist only follows what is done by the people around him. So when engaging in the world of organizations sometimes the like is more harmful than the organization. Academically plummeted and falling. Intellectually mediocre and just looking for social status in the context of the campus so that lecturers are afraid of him for being active as an activist. Typical activists like this many models. So when later he leads an organization, it becomes a vacuum, reckless and away from the ideals and goals of the organization.
Second, academic activists. In this category, the activists in the question are the status and function of them as an activist. He realized as an academic person he put forward for his college years. He understood that the struggle to build a civilization was done through a long and tiring process. That is, in every action and thought the main foundation is worked through a systematic, focused and ending framework on a soothing happy ending. Not reckless, haphazard and graffiti due to the absence of intellectual reasoning in them.
This type of activist is very rare to meet. However, that does not mean there is not. In some campus organizations, people like this hide behind the face of simplicity he has. Because, this is due to the knowledge that is owned. The higher the science of a person, the more humble the person is. Not the other way around, the smarter a person becomes, the more arrogant he or she is against other people. Herein lies misguided.
When entering the world of campus activists, the world that seems to move mediocrity, with the point of view of an activist-somewhat different. This difference is gained through the height of a new awareness in seeing, responding and wanting a world that matches the ideas and contemplation that it does. The awareness to move and fight for an ideal world order, in which justice, prosperity, goodness-instinctively grows inwardly as it realizes its function as a student activist.
Someone, whatever his name had once told me. If you become an activist, then your views on life will be different. Especially in the context of social life in the future.
