Speaking of corruption, of course we often hear, but we do not yet know what corruption itself. In the art of war, there is an expression to win the battle must know the opponent and recognize himself. For that, the student must know what is corruption. There are so many definitions of corruption, but the notion of corruption according to positive law (Law No. 31 of 1999 Law No.20 of 2001 on Eradication of Corruption) is the act of every person both government and private who violate the law to enrich themselves or others Or corporations that could harm the state finances.
Students are a unique element of society. The number is not much, but history shows that the dynamics of this nation can not be separated from the role of students, although the era continues to grow. But the role of students is very influential for this nation and nothing has changed from mahassiwa, namely spirit and idealism. So the role of students in this era is very important for the progress of our country, there are still many cases that have not been fragmented, with this student to remind the government and state officials. As the case of corruption that still many unfinished in our country, not apart from that the role of students in eradicating corruption is very big, of course we ask how this student can be involved in this case as well as other cases.
The involvement of students in efforts to eradicate corruption is certainly not on, the enforcement efforts that are the authority of law enforcement agencies. The student's active role is expected to be more focused on preventing corruption by helping to build anti-corruption culture in society. Students are expected to act as agents of change and motors of anti-corruption movement in society. To be able to play an active role, students need to be equipped with sufficient knowledge about the ins and outs of corruption and its eradication. Equally important, to be able to take an active role students must be able to understand and apply the values of anticorruption in everyday life.
Student debriefing in combating student corruption must perform various ways such as, socialization activities, campaigns, seminars or lectures. This is the way of students in eradicating corruption, and defending the country. With this student to remind the governments that the law is to be used, and to act justly does not look rich or poor. The law applies to everyone. This is the passionate spirit of students in defending the country.
Students also make a strategy to eradicate corruption, combating corruption is not a young thing. From the experience of other countries deemed successful in combating corruption, all elements of the nation and society should be involved in combating corruption through simultaneous means.
Efforts to eradicate corruption include several principles, among others:
A. Understand the things that cause corruption,
B. Efforts to prevent, investigate, and educate are done simultaneously,
C. Action directed against an activity from upstream to downstream (starting from
Planning, execution, monitoring and curative aspects) and covering various elements
On the other hand, students are also required to play a role to exercise social control over deviations that occur to the system, norms, and values that exist in society. In addition, students can also play a role in influencing public policy from the government. To be able to play an optimal role in eradicating corruption is the correction of self and campus. In other words, students must demonstrate that the self and the campus must be clean and away from corruption.
To achieve this, efforts to eradicate corruption starts from the beginning of the lecture. At this time is the period of admission of students, where students are expected to criticize the internal policy of the campus and at the same time do pressure to the government so that laws governing education does not provide opportunities for corruption. In addition, students control the course of admission of new students. This is all the efforts undertaken by students to establish justice and the passion of the students
