The ULOS Choir Team of Universitas Sumatera Utara (USU) achieved an outstanding accomplishment at the 2026 Church Choir Festival (Pesta Paduan Suara Gerejawi/PESPARAWI), held at Universitas Tarumanagara. In the competition, the USU ULOS Choir Team successfully won a Gold Medal and Third Honorable Mention.
This achievement is a source of particular pride for the USU Faculty of Agriculture, as three of its students were part of the team that brought distinction to the university through arts and culture. The three students are Frans Doloksaribu (Undergraduate Program in Aquatic Resources Management), Aldy Febryan Purba (Undergraduate Program in Agrotechnology), and Daniel Tamba (Undergraduate Program in Agribusiness).
This success demonstrates that students have the potential to grow and excel not only in academics but also through non-academic activities, particularly in the arts and culture. Participation in a choir team also provides an opportunity to develop creativity, discipline, teamwork, and the ability to collaborate in achieving shared goals.
This achievement aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 4: Quality Education, through support for the development of students' potential, talents, and creativity as part of a well-rounded education. Furthermore, this accomplishment also reflects the spirit of SDG 17: Partnerships for the Goals, through collaboration, cooperation, and synergy among team members in achieving shared success.
The Dean and academic community of the USU Faculty of Agriculture expressed their appreciation and pride in the achievement of the USU ULOS Choir Team, particularly the Faculty of Agriculture students who helped bring distinction to the university.
This achievement is expected to inspire other students to continue developing their potential, actively participate in various positive activities, and confidently showcase their abilities and creativity in different fields.
Through this accomplishment, the USU Faculty of Agriculture continues to promote an educational environment that supports the holistic development of students, both academically and non-academically.
