Peran Mahasiswa Di Masyarakat

Abstract

Students are an inseparable part of society and play an essential role in social dynamics. As intellectuals, students are expected to perform dual roles, both in education and in community service. This article discusses the role of students in society manifested through four main functions: agent of change, social control, iron stock, and moral force. These roles are not only conceptual but also practical in supporting national development. Using a qualitative approach based on literature study and social phenomenon analysis, this research confirms that students should not only act within the academic sphere but also as key actors in driving social change, maintaining moral control, and becoming resilient future leaders.
