The Archeology study program at
Udayana University finally made history by giving the best undergraduate
student graduates, this was conveyed at the 158th Period Prospective Graduates
Ceremony on Tuesday, February 13 2024, at the Widya Sabha Mandala Auditorium of
Prof.. Ida Bagus Mantra Building, Faculty of Cultural Sciences, University of
Udayana.
Si Gede Bandem Kamandalu, a student
of the 2020 Archeology study program, succeeded in becoming an outstanding
graduate by completing 3.5 years of academic education with a GPA of 3.95. In
his short speech, Bandem expressed hope that prospective graduates would be
able to walk and be successful in their respective paths. Bandem also quoted
the vision of the Archeology Student Association, an organization which has
been the place that has accompanied him to grow and develop himself for the
last 3 and a half years as an archeology student.
“Let me convey a quote from the
vision of the Archaeology Student Association, where I grew up all this time,
which reads Samani Gachanti Samani
Jayanti, which means Walk Together Succeed Together. I hope that in the
future we prospective graduates can walk and succeed in our respective
paths," explained Bandem in front of the attendees of the Prospective
Graduates Ceremony event.
During his time as an Archeology
student, Bandem was known to be very active in activities within the study
program and the Udayana Archeology Student Association (WARMA). From his short
speech, it can be seen that WARMA's role is very big for Bandem, where by
working dynamically with WARMA he finds many opportunities to take advantage
of.
Bandem has also achieved many
achievements ranging from academic to non-academic achievements, such as:
Runner Up II Bagus FIB 2021, best
presenter Bagus FIB, take a part in the badminton team contingent for the 61st
University Of Udayana Anniversary, second place at the national level in the
Scientific and Cultural Article Writing Competition organized by Pura Pakualaman
Yogyakarta, and second place at the national level in the Scientific
Anthropology Competition (LIA III) held by the Udayana Anthropology Student
Association.
His ambition in the world of
journalistic writing and photography has made Bandem well known among
journalistic media groups, of course this is from his great contribution. He has published many
writings on journalism media portals, one of which is the Balebengong.id
platform.
"For some reason, from the
start when I started writing, I was quite happy to learn about ecology, so I
started writing more often about Subak and then about water too. So study
hydro-archaeology and hydro-social "Maybe that's what I'm interested in
now," said Bandem in a short interview session with WARMA's Public
Relations Division.
Bandem is the new face of Udayana
Archeology. The steps he took should be a great motivation for other Archeology
students to move forward together and seize continuous achievements. Hopefully
in the future the Archeology Study Program will keep paying great attention and
support all its students in achieving their dreams and again provide the best
graduates for the Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Udayana University.
