A Lively Cultural Parade and Grand Opening Celebrate English Literature Identity

The grand finale of ASMARALOKA FBS UNESA 2026 reached its peak on Friday, August 21st, as new students (Garda Muda) gathered on campus for the much-awaited cultural parade and opening ceremony. The final day of orientation week ended with a lively celebration. It was all about unity, artistic expression, and departmental pride across the Faculty of Languages and Arts.

The English Literature group stood out during the parade with their creative outfits. The new students walked through the university wearing crowns and their usual clothes. They waved American and British flags along the route to show off their academic focus on global languages, literature, and culture.

The parade was led by the newly appointed Ambassadors of English UNESA (AOE), which made the procession seem even more impressive. Representatives from both student organisations walked at the front wearing their ceremonial sashes. Mr Rayhan and Ms Abigayle represented AELS, and Mr Ilham and Ms Salma represented ELCASA. They are role models for the new students.

After the parade on campus, everything continued with the main inauguration event. The afternoon was filled with fun activities, like a talent show, performances where you could join in, and speeches from the people in charge. The party celebrated the end of PKKMB 2026 and welcomed the new students to the English Literature department.
