The Norwegian Student Graduation at the 4th Social Anthropology Graduation Event
On Tuesday May 21, 2024, a
celebration was held in the Priyono room at the Faculty of Cultural Sciences at
Udayana University. This was the end of a course class series for nine participants from
Norway. For about half a semester, they took part in the Social Anthropology
program, which is an annual event that comes about through a partnership
between the Cultural Anthropology Study Program at Udayana University and Go
Study. These joint projects have given overseas students a great insight into
Balinese culture.
The 4th Social Anthropology
Graduation celebration was attended by nine Norwegian participants, Go Study
representatives, the Deputy Dean of the Faculty of Humanities at Udayana
University, the Cooperative of the Cultural Anthropology Study Program,
lecturers in Social Anthropology, and lecturers and students of the Cultural
Anthropology Study Program. The graduation ceremony for the social anthropology participants was basically like a graduation ceremony in general. All the participants were in their graduation robes and gowns. Then they took turns going up to the
stage to move the toga strap to the right by the Deputy Dean I, get a
certificate from the Cultural Anthropology Study Program Coordinator, and put
on a medal necklace from the Social Anthropology lecturer.
The activity took place with a happy
atmosphere, because it was full of entertainment performances that had been
prepared by the committee. As a characteristic of the Cultural Anthropology
Study Program at Udayana University, there are many traditional dance
performances, almost all of which are performed directly by students of the
Cultural Anthropology Study Program. Various art sequences were performed, such
as the Wela Kaleng dance from NTT, the Old Mask dance from Bali, the Bumbung
jogging from Bali and at the end of the event closed with the Sidhakarya dance.
Like celebrations in general, all participants and committee participated with
happiness and joy. Starting from joining in searching together and singing
together. As an expression of the happiness of the Norwegian participants who have
completed their short course class on the island of Bali, with the Udayana
Cultural Anthropology Study Program. (drd)
