Meanwhile, the series of art contests included singing dangdut and pop song, reading poem, performing monolog, drawing comic strip, and designing poster. Besides, there were two extra competitions the committee added, chess and monochrome photography.
The rector, represented by Rudy Gosal, S.E., M.Si, as the head of Academic, Students, and Planning Bureau of Tadulako University, on his speech encouraged the participants to keep up their enthusiasm in order to have a great triumph either in sports or arts competition.
“Starting from today until the next 5 days, we will observe the talents of our new students, how they excel in sports and arts, since they will be the next participants who represented Tadulako University in National level Competition. From year to year, the participants who joined Sports and Arts Event have been increased. This event are not only expected to look for the best ones, but also to promote social interaction among new students in Tadulako University environment. Instead of joining in unnecessary conflict, a healthy competition like this is much better for you. Show us the best version of you through sports and arts,” said Rudy Gosal.
