Semarang, (05/23) – In the spirit of strengthening student participation in the policy-making process on campus, the Advocacy and Student Welfare Department of the Public Administration Student Association (HMPS) at Universitas Diponegoro organized the Public Priority Vol. 1 2025 event, which carried the theme “Bridging The Aspirations: Connecting Aspirations Across Bureaucrats.”

The activity will be held on Friday, May 23, 2025, at the FISIP Undip Auditorium and will be attended by 85 Public Administration students. Through an open discussion forum, this event serves as a strategic platform for students to directly convey their various aspirations to the Department Management, the Public Administration S1 Program, and the teaching staff.

“What does Public Priority do?” Well, here students can voice their criticism, ideas, and concerns during lectures, ranging from teaching methods and the campus administration system to facilities and infrastructure. What’s even more exciting is that the response from the campus bureaucrats was also delivered directly in this forum, making the two-way communication feel truly alive!

During the event, several prominent issues were discussed, including unstructured learning, unfair attendance, and campus facilities such as elevators and coworking spaces that were considered less than optimal. Interestingly, there was also a suggestion to develop a professor evaluation feature in the SSO (Single Sign-On) so that students could write comments in essay form.

Public Priority Vol. 1 2025 concluded with a reading of the discussion results and a joint documentation session. The enthusiasm and active involvement of the students are proof that their voices are worth fighting for. This activity is expected to be a consistent beginning in building more open and solution-oriented communication between students and campus bureaucracy.
