Abstract:

This study aims to describe an effective management model for fostering Student Activity Units as an effort to stem radicalism in State Islamic Religious Universities. This study is a qualitative descriptive study; data collection techniques are carried out by triangulation of primary data. Primary data for the study were obtained through interviews with the Vice Rector for Student Affairs, Student Activity Unit Supervisors, and the Chairperson of the Student Activity Unit. Interview data were strengthened and verified by observation and documentation data. The results of the data analysis indicate that religious moderation education at the State Islamic Religious Universities of Central Java is still limited to large-scale activities at the university, not yet intensively in sustainable student development activities. The results of this study highlight the importance of strategic involvement from the university in designing Student Activity Unit activities that are able to voice the values of religious tolerance and moderation. This indicates that the integration of moderation values in the work program of Student Activity Units, organizational collaboration, more systematic coaching, and staff units from lecturers and students who receive education and training related to the importance of tolerance and prevention of radicalism are needed to strengthen the role of Student Activity Units in countering the dangers of intolerance and radicalism in the campus environment.
