    Amid Calls to Close Study Programs, Okky Madasari Stresses Value of Language and Culture


    The discourse surrounding the closure of study programs deemed irrelevant to industry has also drawn the attention of novelist and sociologist Okky Madasari. The language and literature expert believes that this discourse has the potential to undermine critical thinking skills and the socio-cultural foundations of future generations. On the contrary, culture, language, and literature should be given greater space for expression so that every social change can be properly documented as part of the dynamics that support the supremacy of Indonesian culture. This was conveyed by Okky during the Cultural Talk at Cultural Festival 15, organized by UGM Residence at Grha Sabha Pramana, coinciding with Labor Day on Friday (May. 1).
