Rest in Peace Prof. Dr. Djamaluddin Ancok

In memory of him, let us reminisce his words :

Pemimpin itu harus percaya diri, berdiri di atas kaki sendiri : "The leader must be confident, stand on their own two feet."

Leader itu harus rela anak buahnya lebih pintar dari dirinya : "The leader must be willing to have subordinates who are smarter than themselves."

Jangan pernah merasa minder. Karena kita adalah keturunan hebat, layaknya nenek moyang kita yang sanggup mengarungi lautan : “Never feel inferior. Because we are descendants of greatness, just like our ancestors who were able to sail the ocean.”

Prof. Dr. Djamaluddin Ancok was a distinguished professor at Faculty of Psychology Universitas Gajah Mada, Yogyakarta. He earned his PhD degree at Indiana University in 1982. He has passed away on March 15, 2024. He has compiled numerous renowned books that have become essential references on campus.

IU DAY 2024

Join us this IU DAY 2024 !

Embracing Sustainability and Community !

Celebrate the spirit of environmental stewardship and unity as we come together for a day filled with meaningful activities which are Mangrove Planting and Ramadhan Breakfasting/Iftar.

Mangrove planting refers to the process of cultivating and establishing mangrove trees in coastal areas. These trees play a crucial role in protecting shorelines from erosion, providing habitats for various marine species, and improving water quality. By planting mangroves, we can help restore and preserve coastal ecosystems, ultimately benefiting both the environment and local communities.

Ramadhan Breakfasting/Iftar : Honoring the beliefs of our Muslim alumni who fast for the entire month are important to us, so we gather after planting mangroves to share a meal with them as a sign of solidarity.

IU DAY is your opportunity to make a positive impact while building lifelong memories.
