Sigit Budi Nugroho, S.Si., M.Sc., Head of the Watershed Management Agency (BPDAS) and an alumnus of FMIPA USU's Mathematics program (class of 1995), expressed his gratitude to the leadership of FMIPA USU and the entire campus community for jointly participating in maintaining the ecosystem at FMIPA USU. He hopes that FMIPA USU will become greener. “Returning to FMIPA reminds me of my college days and the campus environment with its many shady trees, whose ecological benefits we still enjoy directly and indirectly,” said Sigit.
The trees planted during this event were various types of fruit tree seedlings. This initiative aims to provide ecological benefits, such as shade and clean air, as well as the potential for fruit production in the future. Hopefully, the seedlings planted today will serve as a testament to the kindness sown for the entire FMIPA campus community and society at large.
