After completing their studies, accounting graduates are not limited to careers in the accounting field alone; they have a wide range of professional opportunities depending on the factors influencing their decisions. This study uses primary data, with the population consisting of undergraduate (S1) accounting students at Esa Unggul University. The sampling technique employed is nonprobability sampling using a snowball sampling approach. The results show that the simultaneous significance value is 0.000, which is less than 0.05. Partially, the salary variable has a significance value of 0.000, professional training 0.066, professional recognition 0.161, social values 0.734, and work environment 0.308. These findings indicate that, collectively, salary, professional training, professional recognition, social values, and work environment have a significant influence on accounting students’ perceptions in choosing a career as a public accountant. However, individually, only the salary or financial reward factor has a significant effect. Meanwhile, professional training, professional recognition, social values, and work environment do not have a significant influence on students’ decisions to pursue a career as a public accountant.

Education involves acquiring knowledge and skills, with English learning being a skill-based process that requires consistent and engaging practice. In the digital era, mobile applications have emerged as effective tools to overcome traditional limitations in language learning.

Stunting remains a major nutritional problem in Indonesia, impacting the quality of children's growth and development, both in the short and long term. This impact not only affects physical growth but also affects children's endurance and future productivity. Although the national prevalence of stunting shows a downward trend, cases of stunting are still found in various regions, including Banyusari Village, Tegalrejo District. The stunting problem in this region is closely related to parents' low understanding of fulfilling balanced nutrition, especially protein intake, which plays a crucial role in the growth and development of toddlers. This community service activity aims to increase parents' knowledge and awareness in stunting prevention efforts through applicable nutrition education. The activity was carried out by students of the Community Service Program (KKN) of Tidar University. The method used was a socialization method of presenting material on stunting prevention combined with fun cooking practices as a learning medium for serving balanced nutritious meals. In addition, this activity was also accompanied by the provision of Supplementary Food (PMT). The results of the activity showed that participants participated enthusiastically and were able to understand the material presented. The educational approach of fun cooking has been deemed effective in increasing parents' understanding of balanced nutrition and encouraging a shift in mindset from the "just to get full" paradigm to ensuring quality nutrition. This activity is expected to become a practical and sustainable alternative for nutrition education in supporting community-based stunting prevention efforts.    

This study aims to explain the ambiguous role of higher education institutions in ensuring the safety and human rights of students as citizens. The increasing number of cases of academic violence, bullying, and excessive pressure indicates that the functions of universities are often limited to purely administrative aspects, thereby neglecting the need for legal protection. This research employs a normative legal method with a conceptual analysis approach to examine how the state, through its legal framework, defines the role of universities as both educational institutions and legal entities in carrying out the delegated responsibility of protecting human rights. The findings reveal that the state has not succeeded in effectively regulating student protection, as there is a significant gap between central regulations and their implementation within autonomous campuses. Although the state normatively requires universities to provide a safe environment for students, the lack of adequate oversight systems has resulted in protection measures that are largely reactive. This condition leaves limited room for preventive actions, indicating that the protection of students’ rights has not yet been implemented in a comprehensive and sustainable manner.

Bullying remains a serious issue in elementary schools, affecting children’s psychological, social, and academic well-being. Limited student understanding of the forms and impacts of bullying encouraged students of the Community Service Program (KKN) from Mayjen Sungkono University to implement an anti-bullying education program at Tawar State Elementary School. This activity aimed to enhance students’ understanding of bullying while fostering empathy and care toward peers. The program employed an educative–participatory approach through presentations, interactive discussions, question-and-answer sessions, and ice-breaking activities tailored to the characteristics of elementary school students. The participants consisted of 39 students from grades 4 and 5. Evaluation was conducted through observations of student participation, enthusiasm, and their ability to answer questions related to the delivered material. The results indicated that most students were able to understand the concept of bullying, its types, negative impacts, and prevention strategies. Furthermore, students began to apply anti-bullying values in their daily social interactions within the school environment. Anti-bullying education is expected to serve as a preventive measure in creating a safe, comfortable, and supportive school environment that optimally supports students’ growth and development.

Online gambling is a form of addictive behavior that often begins with simple experimentation.

The development of financial technology has led to the emergence of online lending services based on Peer-to-Peer Lending (P2P Lending), which offer easy access to unsecured financing. However, this convenience poses significant risks when targeted at university students, who generally lack stable income and have weak financial literacy. The absence of manual verification and the suboptimal application of the prudential principle may result in a disproportionate debt burden for students. This study aims to analyze the extent to which the prudential principle is implemented by P2P Lending providers in granting loans to students, as well as to examine the legal construction of online lending agreements from a consumer protection perspective. This research employs a normative juridical method using statutory, doctrinal, and conceptual approaches. Data were obtained through literature review of relevant laws and regulations, legal literature, and supporting documents. The application of the prudential principle by P2P Lending providers remains limited and tends to focus more on user expansion than on debtor risk analysis. Online loan agreements are unilaterally drafted through standard contracts that place students in a weak legal position, without adequate protective mechanisms. Students, as vulnerable debtors, have not yet received optimal legal protection due to weak implementation of the prudential principle and exploitative contractual arrangements. Regulatory reform and strengthened oversight are necessary to ensure contractual fairness.

Bullying is a form of aggressive behavior that is intentionally and repeatedly carried out, characterized by an imbalance of power between the perpetrator and the victim. This phenomenon is not limited to childhood and adolescence but may also produce long term effects that extend into adulthood, including among university students. This study aims to explore the long term impact of bullying on victims’ mental health, with a particular focus on students who have experienced bullying in the past. The study employed a descriptive qualitative method using a literature review approach. Data were obtained through a comprehensive analysis of scientific articles, national and international journals, and previous studies related to bullying and mental health. The findings show that victims of bullying face a higher risk of psychological problems, such as depression, anxiety, post traumatic stress disorder or PTSD, low self esteem, and difficulties in social interactions. These effects influence not only emotional well-being but also academic functioning, including reduced concentration, decreased learning motivation, and lower academic performance. In addition, prolonged psychological stress resulting from bullying may lead to physical problems, such as sleep disturbances and somatic complaints. Factors including limited social support, maladaptive coping strategies, and high intensity or prolonged exposure to bullying were found to intensify the negative impacts experienced by victims. Therefore, this study emphasizes the importance of comprehensive prevention and intervention efforts in higher education settings, such as the provision of accessible counseling services, the implementation of strict anti bullying policies, and the strengthening of social support systems to minimize the long-term mental health effects of bullying among university students.

Social media is one form of technological advancement that has become an integral part of students’ lives, including university students. Its use is not limited to communication and information sharing, but it may also generate psychological effects that influence both physical and mental health. The purpose of this review is to identify and explain the psychological impacts of social media use through appropriate theoretical approaches, which serve as a foundation for discussing the research findings. This study employs a literature review method by examining various academic books and relevant scientific articles. The findings indicate that excessive use of social media has the potential to cause psychological problems among university students, such as social comparison behavior, cyberbullying, decreased sleep quality, and reduced learning productivity. These issues are influenced by several factors, including the intensity of social media use, the type of content accessed, and individuals’ ability to manage emotions and time. Furthermore, uncontrolled social media use may lead to difficulties in social relationships, increased procrastination, poor time management, and reduced self-control in using social networking platforms. Therefore, students are encouraged to develop healthier patterns of social media use to reduce the risk of psychological disturbances. This review is also expected to assist healthcare professionals in understanding the relationship between the intensity of social media use and the occurrence of depressive symptoms among university students.

The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) is one of the personality assessment tools that is often used to identify individual psychological tendencies, including in the context of higher education. In the student environment, MBTI is widely used as a means of self-introduction, adjustment of learning styles, increasing the effectiveness of group work, and career planning. This article aims to examine the relevance of the application of MBTI among students using a literature study approach. The research method used is in the form of a review of various literature sources, such as scientific journals, books, and academic articles that discuss the basic concept of MBTI, its implementation in the field of education, and critical views regarding its limitations. The results of the study show that MBTI has a fairly relevant role as a non-diagnostic instrument in helping students understand their potential, learning preferences, and social and academic interaction patterns. In addition, the appropriate use of MBTI can support improved learning quality, teamwork effectiveness, and academic counseling services. However, a number of literature highlights the limitations of MBTI, especially regarding aspects of validity and reliability, so it is not recommended to be used as the sole basis for academic or psychological decision-making. Thus, MBTI remains relevant for students if used wisely, contextually, and based on a strong scientific foundation to support students' academic and personality development.

The study concludes that effective use of Perplexity AI requires strong AI literacy that includes critical thinking, verification skills, and ethical awareness. These insights contribute to a broader understanding of human–AI collaboration in academic settings and highlight the need for responsible, well-guided integration of AI tools in research education.

Economic empowerment of rural communities through the strengthening of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) is a crucial pillar in achieving national economic independence. One of the fundamental obstacles faced by MSMEs in rural areas is financial exclusion due to low digital literacy and dependence on conventional cash transaction systems. The Community Service Program (KKN) of students from the State Islamic University of North Sumatra (UIN SU) in Pematang Tengah Village was designed to bridge this gap by optimizing the Indonesian Standard Quick Response Code (QRIS). Through an intensive participatory mentoring approach, students acted as agents of digital transformation who educated, trained, and facilitated 10 local MSME actors in adopting non-cash payment technology. The results of the program show a significant shift from digital skepticism to digital trust. The implementation of QRIS has been proven to increase operational efficiency, financial management accuracy, and strengthen the image of business modernity in the eyes of consumers. This article emphasizes that the role of students is not merely as information deliverers, but as catalysts of social capital that is crucial for the sustainability of digitalization at the village level.
