Teatime: Priority Management Participating in International Credit Transfer

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Studying International majors at two campuses at once is not an easy matter. But, that doesn’t mean only smart kids can follow it. Doing something big doesn’t have to always have an A mark and a GPA of 4.

 This talk came from the mouth of Defita Dwinusa, a student at the Department of Communication, International Program, class 2019. Defita was invited to an online chat at Teatime by the International Program of Communication Department (IPC) at the Universitas Islam Indonesia. The discussion was held on Saturday, July 2, 2021, via Instagram Live by Instagram account at ip.communication. The regular discussion every Friday brings together various speakers with many experiences and perspectives.

Defita, who likes taekwondo, participates in International Credit Transfer. He completed half of her studies at UII, the other half at Mapua University, Philippines. At Mapua University, Defita also takes courses that are correlated with communication studies so that all subjects are interconnected.

Lectures in the International Credit Transfer program are a new program held this year. The lecture has not yet taken place. One thing that really worries Defita is the heavy lecture load and the language of instruction. “Hopefully the learning is in full English, not Tagalog. It is unimaginable,” said Defita.

We know that the burden of international lectures at the two universities is heavy, this was also asked by one of the participants in the Teatime discussion. When asked about how to manage time, Defita answered by looking at priorities and again remembering her intentions and sense of responsibility. “Just like we usually go to college usually: doing what we are responsible for. Which is the priority? Playing on social media or our lectures,” said the girl born in West Java.

Considering that studying at two international universities is neither trivial nor cheap, Defita admits that she is not a child with brilliant academic achievements. Defita’s words can be quoted by anyone who wants to progress and succeed like Defita. “Don’t think I’m smart. No. I’m just a person who always does what I have to do. That’s all,” said the girl whose kick quality has been rewarded with a black belt.

Praxis of AES Thought: Media Political Economy, Regulation, and Democracy

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Amir Effendi Siregar is not only a thinker, he is also the initiator of many media movements and activists, as well as an ideologue of broadcasting democracy. This is not easy to find nowadays. AES thinking is broad and diverse. This can be a valuable lesson for future generations, especially in UII of Department of Communications.

Kristiawan said AES’s thinking spans from political economy, regulation, broadcasting and includes the press and media regulators. According to Kristiawan, AES is also the driving force behind KIDP (Independent Coalition for Broadcasting Democratization).

“There are two praxis of Bang AES that I think are unique from the typology of Bang AES, the first is advocacy practice,” said Kristiawan in a book discussion Against Capital Authoritarianism, Amir Effendi Siregar in Media Democratization Thoughts and Movements, the first volume, at the Zoom Meeting Saturday , June 26, 2021.

“To be honest, Bang Amir said, it’s because of you, Wan. I’ve been living quietly; you pulled me here. That was around 2009. At that time, I was still at the Tifa foundation. A new actor in broadcasting democracy,” Kristiawan said. “If we go back to those years, the democratization movement for broadcasting was almost zero. At that time, Maksi (Indonesian communication and information society) started before KIDP. Then we created KIDP,” said Kristiawan.

According to Kristiawan, this is a milestone in the democratization of broadcasting. At that time, the KIDP movement raised the issue of media ownership in Indonesia as a problem from the start, “and I am grateful that this movement is so massive and strong that it ended up being tested for interpretation in the Constitutional Court (MK). That was AES’s first practice.”

Meanwhile, according to Kristiawan, the second praxis is managerial praxis. AES is willing and able to manage Warta Ekonomi magazine. “This requires other thinking skills. One goal is to criticize, the other is to sell. I think this is unique. And this confirms if we pull it up again, that Bang Amir’s style of thinking is indeed a social democrat style,” said Kristiawan later.

According to him, AES does not reject industry, does not reject capitalism, but how to tame capitalism to support the quality of life together, “or in the term decent capitalism, that is what Bang Amir often raises.”

In addition, Kristiawan also said the AES thinking model. “I want to emphasize in this forum that the building of Bang Amir’s thinking does not only stop at the micro and meso levels, but also reaches the macro level. In my term, the ideological horses are powerful,” said Kristiawan. Epistemologically, he said, AES’s thinking is very strong and consistent not only in action but also in logic.

“I think one thing that is not the focus of Bang Amir is a content analysis which is very micro. I see that AES is not interested here, except I don’t know,” added Kristiawan.

Nina Mutmainnah, as the editor of this book, also shared stories about AES. “This is very important in the history of broadcasting in Indonesia, because this group (KIDP) in 2011 conducted a test of interpretation of the ownership rules in the Broadcasting Law to the Constitutional Court. We know that the issue of media ownership is also an issue that is overseen by Bang Amir,” said Nina Mutmainnah, Lecturer at the UI Communications Department, as a speaker with Kristiawan.

The book, which was launched in conjunction with the 17th Anniversary of UII Communication and 11th Year of PR2Media, contains the writings of many authors representing students, colleagues, friends, and even teachers. For example, there were R. Kristiawan, Puji Rianto, Ade Armando, M. Heychael, Ignatius Haryanto, Nina Mutmainnah, and Eduard Lukman, who spoke at the level of AES thinking about political economy. Wisnu Martha Adiputra, Masduki, Hermin Indah Wahyuni, Darmanto, Ezki Soeyanto, Rahayu, and Iwan Awaluddin Yusuf wrote about Publicity and Public Broadcasting. Meanwhile, Wisnu Prasetya Utomo, and AP Wicaksono wrote Bang AES’ thoughts on the student press.

Topics The first part was discussed for the first time on Saturday, June 26, 2021. The topic of discussion this time presented the deputy writer R. Kristiawan (National Coalition for Broadcasting Reform), and the deputy book editor, namely Dr. Nina Mutmainnah (UI Communication Lecturer). Dr. Eni Maryani from UNPAD Communications, was also present as a discussant and was guided by moderator Mufti Nur Latifah, MA (UGM Communications Lecturer).

According to Nina, AES has also repeatedly stated in various writings that she believes that one indicator of a democratic country is the guarantee of Freedom of Expression, Freedom of speech, freedom of the press, diversity of voices, diversity of content), and diversity of ownership. AES emphasizes this that this must be maintained and guarded. Like what he wrote in 2014 in his book entitled Escorting the Democratization of the Media.

Praksis Pemikiran AES: Ekonomi Politik Media, Regulasi, dan Demokrasi

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Amir Effendi Siregar tak hanya menjadi pemikir, ia juga adalah inisiator banyak gerakan dan aktivis media, juga ideolog demokrasi penyiaran. Inilah yang tak mudah ditemukan kini. Pemikiran AES sangat luas dan beragam. Ini bisa menjadi pelajaran berharga bagi generasi penerus, terutama di Komunikasi UII.

Kristiawan mengatakan, pemikiran AES membentang dari ekonomi politik, regulasi, penyiaran dan termasuk pers dan regulator media. Menurut Kristiawan, AES juga adalah yang memotori KIDP (Koalisi Independen untuk Demokratisasi Penyiaran).

“Ada dua praksis Bang AES yang menurut saya unik dari tipologi bang AES, yang pertama praksis advokatif,” kata Kristiawan dalam diskusi buku Melawan Otoritarianisme Kapital, Amir Effendi Siregar Amir Effendi Siregar dalam Pemikiran dan Gerakan Demokratisasi Media, jilid pertama, pada Zoom Meeting Sabtu, 26 Juni 2021.

“Ini terus terang, Bang Amir bilang, ini gara-gara kamu, Wan. Aku udah hidup tenang-tenang kamu tarik ke sini. Itu sekitar tahun 2009. Aaat itu saya masih di yayasan Tifa. Saya menggalang aktor-aktor baru di demokrasi penyiaran,” kata Kristiawan menceritakan. “Kalau kita tarik ke tahun-tahun itu, gerakan demokratisasi penyiaran saat itu hampir nol. Waktu itu mulanya Maksi (masyarakat komunikasi dan informasi indonesia), ini sebelum KIDP. Lalu berikutnya kami bikin KIDP,” ungkap Kristiawan.

Menurut Kristiawan, ini adalah milestone dalam demokratisasi penyiaran. Saat itu gerakan KIDP adalah mengangkat isu kepemilikan media di Indonesia sebagai problem sejak awal, “dan saya bersyukur gerakan ini sangat masif dan kuat lalu berujung di uji tafsir di Mahkamah Konstitusi (MK). Itu praksis pertama bang AES.”

Sedangkan praksis kedua, menurut Kristiawan, adalah adalah praksis manajerial. AES mau dan mampu mengelola majalah Warta Ekonomi. “Ini menuntut keterampilan berfikir yang lain. yang satu tujuannya mengkritik, yang satu tujuannya jualan. Saya kira ini unik. dan ini menegaskan, kalau kita tarik ke atas lagi, bahwa memang corak berpikir Bang Amir ini corak sosial demokrat,” ungkap Kristiawan kemudian.

Menurutnya, AES tidak menolak industri, tidak menolak kapitalisme, tetapi bagaimana menjinakkan kapitalisme itu agar menunjang kualitas kehidupan bersama, “atau istilahnya decent capitalism, itu yang sering diangkat Bang Amir.”

Selain itu, Kristiawan juga mengatakan model berpikir AES. “Saya di forum ini ingin menegaskan, bangunan pemikiran Bang Amir tidak hanya berhenti dalam level mikro dan meso, tapi sampai level makro. Istilah saya, kuda-kuda ideologisnya sangat kuat,” papar Kristiawan. Secara epistemologis, katanya, pemikiran AES ini sangat kuat dan konsisten tidak hanya dalam tindakan tapi juga dalam logika.

“Saya kira satu yang tidak jadi fokus Bang Amir itu di content analysis yang sangat mikro. Saya lihat bang AES tidak tertarik ke sini, kecuali saya tidak tau,” imbuh Kristiawan.

Nina Mutmainnah, sebagai editor buku ini juga urun cerita tentang AES. “Ini penting sekali dalam sejarah penyiaran di Indonesia, karena kelompok ini (KIDP) pada 2011 melakukan uji tafsir terhadap aturan kepemilikan dalam UU Penyiaran ke Mahkamah konstitusi. Kita tahu isu kepemilikan media juga jadi isu yang dikawal oleh Bang Amir,” kata Nina Mutmainnah, Dosen di Departemen Komunikasi UI, saat menjadi pembicara bersama Kristiawan.

Buku yang diluncurkan seturut dengan Milad 17 Tahun Komunikasi UII dan 11 Tahun PR2Media ini memuat tulisan banyak penulis yang mewakili murid, rekan, sahabat, dan bahkan guru. Misalnya ada R. Kristiawan, Puji Rianto, Ade Armando, M. Heychael, Ignatius Haryanto, Nina Mutmainnah, dan Eduard Lukman, yang bicara di level pemikiran AES soal ekonomi politik. Wisnu Martha Adiputra, Masduki, Hermin Indah Wahyuni, Darmanto, Ezki Soeyanto, Rahayu, dan Iwan Awaluddin Yusuf menulis soal Kepublikan dan Penyiaran Publik. Sedangkan Wisnu Prasetya Utomo, dan A. P. Wicaksono menulis pemikiran Bang AES tentang pers mahasiswa.

Topik Bagian pertama didiskusikan pertama kali pada Sabtu, 26 Juni 2021. Topik diskusi kali ini menghadirkan wakil penulis R. Kristiawan (Koalisi Nasional Reformasi Penyiaran), dan wakil Editor Buku yaitu Dr. Nina Mutmainnah (Dosen Komunikasi UI). Dr. Eni Maryani dari Komunikasi UNPAD, juga hadir sebagai pembahas sekaligus dipandu oleh moderator Mufti Nur Latifah, MA (Dosen Komunikasi UGM).

Menurut Nina, AES juga berulang-ulang menyampaikan dalam berbagai tulisannya, bahwa ia meyakini satu indikator negara yang demokratis adalah terdapatnya jaminan Freedom of Expression, Freedom of speech, freedom of the press, diversity of voices (Keberagaman suara), diversity of content (keberagaman konten), dan diversity of ownership (keberagaman kepemilikan). AES menekankan hal ini bahwa hal ini harus terus dijaga dan dikawal. Seperti apa yang ia tulis pada 2014 pada bukunya yang berjudul Mengawal Demokratisasi Media.

Teatime: Internship While Introducing Batik and Playing Gobak Sodor

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Trying various opportunities and joining several international institutions opens the door to international knowledge and excitement. Feel and experience directly associating with people with different cultures, as well as introducing Indonesian culture and wealth in the land of a hundred palaces.

The experience was passed by Jorgi Radivka. Jorgi is a 2014 student of Department of Communication at the Universitas Islam Indonesia, who had the opportunity to do an internship as a teacher at an elementary school in the middle of the blue continent of Europe, the Czech Republic. She shared this experience in one of the online casual chat programs made by UII’s International Program of Communication UII on Saturday, June 26, 2021. Annisa Putri Jiany led a discussion with Jorgi, exploring his various experiences with AIESEC in Czech.

Jorgi is a member of an international organization whose mission is to spread peace and humanity. His organization is by inviting young people to do international internships or activities as well as to develop youth leadership potential. The organization is (Association Internationale des Etuadiants Sciences Economiques et Commerciales (AIESEC).

In that school, Jorgi has to teach for approximately two months. Many of them do not know Indonesia. They don’t even know there is a country called Indonesia. Jorgi finally brought a map of the globe and showing where Indonesia is located. He also introduced Indonesian language and songs.

Not only that, he also introduced batik motifs by wearing batik every time he went to school and discussing batik with his friends.

At first there were several obstacles he faced when teaching at school . The language barrier is one of the obstacles because English is not the main language of the people in the Czech Republic. This language barrier makes the students not pay much attention during the learning process. But Jorgi has some tricks that he uses to win attention back. “I use the traditional game here. Gobak sodor for 10-15 minutes to let them be happy first. After that they want to pay attention to the lesson.”

He recounts the funniest and most memorable experiences. On several occasions Jorgi also cooks for his friends and the teachers there. He was so happy and satisfied because he managed to make his friends spicy. “They can’t really eat spicy food, but I cook bakwan and sambal matah. They can’t stand how spicy it is, but they’re done.”

Teatime: Magang Sembari Kenalkan Batik dan Main Gobak Sodor

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Mencoba berbagai peluang dan bergabung beerapa lembaga international membuka pintu pengetahuan dan keseruan pengalaman international. Merasakan dan mengalami langsung bergaul dengan orang dengan kultur yang berbeda, sekaligus mengenalkan kultur dan kekayaan Indonesia di negeri seratus istana.

Pengalaman itu dilalui oleh Jorgi Radivka. Jorgi adalah mahasiswa Ilmu Komunikasi Universitas Islam Indonesia angkatan 2014, yang berkesempatan magang sebagai pengajar di sekolah dasar di tengah-tengah benua biru Eropa, Republik Ceko. Pengalaman ini ia bagikan di salah satu program ngobrol santai daring Teatime besutan International Program Communication UII pada Sabtu, 26 Juni 2021. Annisa Putri Jiany memandu diskusi dengan Jorgi, mengulik beragam pengalamannya bersama AIESEC di Ceko.

Jorgi tergabung dalam sebuah organisasi International yang misinya adalah untuk menyebarkan kedamaian dan kemanusiaan dengan mengajak anak-anak muda magang atau berkegiatan International sekaligus untuk menumbuhkan potensi kepemimpinan pemuda. Organisasi tersebuat adalah (Association Internationale des Etuadiants Sciences Economiques et Commerciales (AIESEC).

Dalam sekolah itu Jorgi harus mengajar selama kurang lebih dua bulan. Banyak diantara mereka yang tidak mengenal Indonesia. Bahakan tidak tahu ada negara bernama Indonesia. Jorgi akhirnya membawa peta globe dan menunjukkan dimana Indonesia teretak. Ia juga mengenalkan bahasa dan lagu-lagu Indonesia.

Tak hanya itu, Ia juga mengenalkan motif batik dengan mengenakan batik setiap kali ke sekolah dan memperbincangkan dengan teman-temannya.

Mulanya ada beberapa hambatan yang ia alami ketika mengajar di sekolah. Kendala bahasa menjadi salah satu penghambat karena bahasa Inggris bukannah bahasa utama orang-oarang di Czech Republic. Kendala bahasa ini membuat murid-murinya tidak begitu memeberikan perhatian saat proses belajar. Tapi Jorgi punya beberapa trik yang dia gunakan untuk merebut perhatian kembali. “aku pakai permaian tradisional di sini. Gobak sodor 10-15 menit biar mereka senang dulu. Setelah itu mereka mau perhatikan pelajaran.”

Ia mencerikan pengalaman paling lucu dan mengesankan. Dalam beberapa kesempatan Jorgi juga memasak untuk teman-temannya para guru di sana. Ia yang begitu senang dan puas karena berhasil membuat teman-temannya kepedasan. “Mereka itu kan tidak begitu bisa makan pedas, tapi aku memasak bakwan dan sambel matah. Mereka nggak tahan betapa pedasnya, tapi habis.”

Music Topophilia: Jakarta Means for Wota

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Music Topophilia is music tourism that refers to a sense of love in a place through music. This happened to fans and JKT48, a sister group from Japan, AKB48. They are said to have changed the image of the city of Jakarta in the eyes of JKT48 fans who are often called Wota.

Initially, Wota thought of Jakarta as a city with a hard life. The emergence of JKT48 made Wota change his view of the city of Jakarta. Jakarta is now a friendly city. JKT48 contributed to this view, such as mentioning the name of the city in their song lyrics. This aspect is the main attraction for fans to watch JKT48 live in the theatre.

“Fans of JKT48 or Wota will only feel prosperous when they come to Jakarta and watch JKT48 live,” said Amey, the speaker in the discussion “Music Topophilia: The Meaning of Jakarta for JKT48 Fans” held by the Center for Alternative Media Studies and Documentation (PSDMA) Nadim Communication UII. The discussion was held on Thursday (17/6/2021), which was broadcast live by the first online TV at UII, Uniicoms TV.

 The meaning of Jakarta for Wota

Wota interpreting Jakarta as a friendly city cannot be separated from the role of his idol. JKT48 maintains good relations with fans, especially those who live outside Jakarta. The relationship that exists between fans and JKT48 is a new tourism practice. It includes several dimensions of activity. For example, attending the theatre, handshake, and concerts.

Watching theatre is the activity that Wota is most interested in. This is because the theatrical event has its own meaning for fans, so they like the city of Jakarta. In addition, fans can also get to know members other of the theatre which is held every day, so that the desire to continue watching the theatre arises.

Amey said that some fans even visited Jakarta just for activities idolizing (idolizing characters). According to Amey, in his research, he found that it is estimated that in a year, activities idols can do one to five times.

Idoling activities are one component of music tourism practice. The complete practice is to feel euphoric, enjoy songs while doing fanchant (songs or shouts from fans when their idols act on stage), and pay attention to the development of members. In addition, Wota is also waiting for announcements from JKT48 members regarding graduations, promotions and events that will be held next. They will follow things related to JKT48. In this discussion, Amey revealed that fans, both male and female, all melt accidentally while doing idols. They believe that the city of Jakarta is a pleasant city because they find what is not in their hometown.

Learning Adab Before Studying Science (2)

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Continuation of the first post at the following link.

But even so, according to him, there is one thing that is lacking from this book. “For example, what is lacking is adab about himself. This is sometimes forgotten. Sometimes you know other people but you don’t know yourself. Including forgetting yourself, “added Imam later.

The Imam added that in the Qur’an, humans are not commanded to see others, “but in the Qur’an, we are asked to look at ourselves. Iqra Kitabaka binafsi,” he said.

Subhan Afifi, responding to the issue of the thickness of the book, explained that this was an effort by the lecturer to provide the best service. “I remember my colleague at UII Communications, said Mas Holy, we often see students being a bit pessimistic. Yes, we don’t think about students who don’t want to read. It’s not serious,” said Subhan.

According to him, not infrequently, there are actually students who act beyond expectations. “It turns out that there are also those who are still serious about learning, so we have just given maximum service. So that those who are serious can develop a lot, while those who are less serious, we invite slowly, “said Subhan imitating his colleague’s words.

The purpose of this book, said Subhan, to represent the authors, is to make this campus a center for cultural development. Therefore, this book talks about philosophy, technical matters, how to, concepts and examples of their application.

Another speaker who was invited to review this book, Iip Wijayanto said that this was the book he had hoped for since he was still at UII. “Back when I was the Secretary General of the DPM FTSP UII, we were hot and there was a student movement, why was this student wearing a headscarf not disciplined. Then one of the lecturers said, people have reached the moon, why are you still here talking about clothes? That was 20 years ago, now UII is better,” said Iip Wijayanto. He hopes that this book will be the basis for special courses on adab.

Besides Iip, there were also discussion audiences from seasoned academics. For example, Prof. Djamaludin Ancok, UGM Psychology lecturer who is also the first Dean of the Faculty of Psychology. He had high hopes for this book. “Hopefully this book will become a quality human development guidebook,” he wrote in the chat column on the live broadcast of this event on Uniicoms TV.

Music Topophilia: Makna Kota Bagi Wota

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Musik Topophilia merupakan pariwisata musik yang mengacu pada rasa cinta di suatu tempat melalui musik. Hal ini terjadi pada penggemar dan JKT48, salah satu sister grup asal Jepang yaitu AKB48. Mereka disebut telah mengubah citra kota Jakarta di mata penggemar JKT48 yang sering disebut Wota.

Awalnya Wota menganggap Kota Jakarta sebagai kota dengan kehidupan yang keras. Munculnya JKT48 membuat Wota mengubah pandangannya tentang kota Jakarta. Jakarta kini adalah kota yang ramah. JKT48 berkontribusi dengan pandangan ini, seperti menyebut nama kota di lirik lagu mereka. Aspek inilah yang menjadi daya tarik tersendiri bagi penggemar untuk menonton langsung JKT48 di teater.

“Para penggemar JKT48 atau Wota baru terasa mabrur kalau sudah ke Jakarta dan menonton JKT48 secara langsung,” ungkap Amey, pembicara dalam diskusi “Music Topophilia: Makna Jakarta bagi Penggemar JKT48” diadakan oleh Pusat Studi dan Dokumentasi Media Alternatif (PSDMA) Nadim Komunikasi UII. Diskusi diselenggarakan pada Kamis (17/6/2021), yang disiarkan langsung oleh TV Daring pertama di UII, Uniicoms TV.

 

Makna Jakarta bagi Wota

Wota memaknai Jakarta sebagai kota yang ramah tidak lepas dari peran idolanya. JKT48 menjalin hubungan baik dengan penggemar khususnya yang berdomisili di luar Jakarta. Hubungan yang terjalin antara penggemar dan JKT48 merupakan praktik wisata baru. Hal tersebut mencakup beberapa dimensi aktivitas. Misalnya antara lain menghadiri teater, handshake, dan konser.

Menonton teater merupakan aktivitas yang paling diminati oleh Wota. Hal tersebut dikarenakan acara teater memiliki makna tersendiri bagi penggemar, sehingga mereka menyukai kota Jakarta. Selain itu, penggemar juga dapat mengenal member lain dari teater yang diadakan setiap hari, sehingga timbul keinginan untuk terus menonton teater.

Amey berkisah, beberapa penggemar bahkan berkunjung ke Jakarta hanya untuk kegiatan idoling (mengidolakan tokoh). Menurut Amey, dalam penelitiannya menemukan bahwa, diperkirakan dalam setahun, kegiatan idoling dapat mereka lakukan sebanyak satu hingga lima kali.

Kegiatan idoling merupakan salah satu komponen praktik pariwisata musik. Adapun praktik lengkapnya yaitu merasakan euforia, menikmati lagu sembari melakukan fanchant (nyanyian atau seruan penggemar saat idolanya beraksi di panggung), dan memperhatikan perkembangan member. Selain itu, Wota juga menanti pengumuman dari member JKT48 tentang graduation, promosi dan event yang akan diadakan selanjutnya. Hal yang berkaitan dengan JKT48 akan mereka ikuti. Dalam diskusi ini, Amey mengungkapkan bahwa, penggemar, baik laki-laki maupun perempuan, semuanya melebur tanpa sengaja saat melakukan idoling. Mereka meyakini kota Jakarta adalah kota yang menyenangkan, karena mereka menemukan apa yang tidak ada di kota asal mereka.

Belajar Adablah Sebelum Belajar Ilmu (2)

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Lanjutan dari tulisan pertama di tautan berikut.

Namun meski begitu, menurutnya ada satu yang kurang dari buku ini. “Misal ini yang kurang adalah adab tentang dirinya sendiri. Ini kadang-kadang terlupakan. Kadang-kadang tahu orang lain tapi tidak tahu dirinya sendiri. Termasuk lupa diri,” imbuh Imam kemudian.

Imam menambahkan bahwa dalam quran, manusia itu tidak ada perintah melihat orang lain, “tapi justru di quran kita diminta melihat diri sendiri. Iqra kitabaka binnafsi,” katanya.

Subhan Afifi, menanggapi soal tebalnya buku, menjelaskan bahwa ini adalah upaya dosen memberi layanan terbaik. “Saya ingat kolega saya di Komunikasi UII, kata Mas Holy, sering kali kita lihat agak pesimistik pada mahasiswa. Ya sudah kita tidak berpikir mahasiswa yang tidak mau membaca. Tidak serius,” kata Subhan.

Menurutnya tak jarang, ada sebenarnya mahasiswa yang berlaku diluar ekspektasi. “Ternyata ada juga yang masih serius belajar, ya sudah kita berikan saja layanan maksimum. Supaya mereka yang serius ini bisa banyak berkembang, sembari yang kurang serius kita ajak pelan-pelan,” kata Subhan menirukan ucapan koleganya.

Tujuan buku ini, kata Subhan, mewakili para penulis, agar kampus ini menjadi kampus candradimuka pusat pembangunan adab. Maka dari itu buku ini bicara filosofi, sampai hal-hal teknis, how to, konsep dan contoh pengaplikasikannya.

Pembicara lain yang diundang untuk membedah buku ini, Iip Wijayanto mengatakan, bahwa ini adalah buku yang ia harapkan sejak dulu ia masih di UII. “Dulu ketika saya menjadi Sekjen DPM FTSP UII, kami gerah dan ada gerakan mahasiswa kenapa cara berjilbab mahasiswi ini kok tidak ditertibkan. Lalu ada salah satu dosen yang mengatakan, orang sudah sampai ke bulan, kenapa kok masih di sini bicara soal pakaian? Itu 20 tahun yang lalu, sekarang UII sudah lebih baik,” kata Iip Wijayanto. Ia berharap buku ini nantinya bisa menjadi dasar bagi mata kuiah khusus tentang adab.

Selain Iip, ada juga penonton diskusi dari Akademisi kawakan. Misalnya Prof. Djamaludin Ancok, dosen Psikologi UGM yang juga adalah Dekan pertama di Dakultas Psikologi. Ia banyak berharap pada buku ini. “Semoga Buku ini akan menjadi buku panduan pengembangan manusia berkualitas,” tulisnya dalam kolom chat di kanal siaran langsung acara ini di Uniicoms TV.
