FYP itself is an abbreviation for First Year Program in Bina Nusantara University, and FL (Freshman Leaders) are the sophomore or juniors who are helping the freshmen during the first phase of FYP <a href=\"https:\/\/student.binus.ac.id\/fyp\/\">(Orientation and Transition Program)<\/a>. The English Department this year has 9 FLs, and 2 of them are also from HIMSI.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">On July 14, 2021, the Freshmen Leaders had an internal meeting with the English Department. The Head of Departm<span style=\"font-size: 14px;text-align: justify\">ent Irfan Rifai is the one representing the department. The meeting started at 8:15 AM on Zoom with a greeting from Sir Irfan. All the Freshmen Leaders look sleepy due to how early the eve<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;text-align: justify\">nt was. Soon the participants were informed about the lecturers in the English Department (their role, status, and many more!). This activity is important because the FL are needed and expected to inform the incoming freshmen. If all the FL are clueless, then what\u2019s the point in having them around? And that\u2019s it, a 30 minutes meet and greet of\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;text-align: justify\">the FL and the Head of the English Department.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">To make this ne<span style=\"font-size: 14px;text-align: justify\">ws more interesting, I interviewed a HIMSI member from the Student Development Division, who\u2019s also a Freshman Leader.

First of all, I want<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;text-align: justify\">ed to join the program because I want to meet the fr<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;text-align: justify\">eshmen who will join Binus University, furthermore I\u2019m also looking for experiences on becoming the Freshmen Leader itself. Becoming a Freshmen Leader itself is very new for me and I wanted to know how to be one and ho<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;text-align: justify\">w to encounter obstacles that will come to me as a Freshmen Leader. And lastly, to close and answer the question I wa<\/span><span style=\"font-size: 14px;text-align: justify\">nted to join the Freshmen Leader Program because I wanted to make connections with the other Freshmen Leader and also the freshmen itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Handiko\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 : Please share your expectations for this year FYP!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Reinhardt\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0: My expectations for this year FYP are very simple, I\u2019m just hoping that everything goes well for the freshmen, Freshmen Leader, FYP Leader, and lecturers. I\u2019m also hoping that this year FYP would be fun, exciting and thrilling for all of us, because a simple FYP would not do the trick to get the freshmen&#8217;s attention. Lastly, I hope I can be the one that the freshmen look for when they are having difficulty adapting to a new environment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Han<\/strong><strong style=\"font-size: 14px;text-align: justify\">diko\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 : FYP 2025 is going to be conducted online again. Do you actually prefer to do it offline or online? Why?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Reinhardt\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0: Good question Handiko, actually I prefer both. Because doing both will give us more efficiency in conducting the FYP. But alas, even if we wanted to do it offline, first we need to hope that the lockdown is over and then we can actually conduct the FYP offline.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Handiko\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 : What is your plan to be a good freshmen leader?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Reinhardt\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0: Hmmm, my plans are quite simple Handiko. I just need to have a decent and tidy appearance, communication skills, decent leadership, responsibility and lastly a friendly and kind person. Although it is a simple plan, I think it is very important because I will greet and welcome the new Freshmen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Handiko\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 : Before we finish the interview, do you have anything to say to our upcoming freshmen?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Reinhardt\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0: Of course Handiko, all I wanted to say to the incoming freshmen is that I\u2019m looking forward to be your friendly neighborhood Freshmen Leader.
