Biography is the entrance to a broader history. That's the message to be conveyed in the book now. Through this book we can see how a family history is told biographically. Starting from a family in Gunaksa Village, Klungkung who left his hometown to Bajera Village in the name of safety.
He no longer wants to lose his child, like previous events. All children leave this world without a clear reason. People say they are victims of the practice of science ugig known as pangeleakan. If this one boy dies in vain, there will not be another generation in the family. The saved child is I Ketut Sambereg.
I Ketut Sambereg lives in poverty. Even so, he was able to conquer one by one the challenges that lay before his eyes. Until one day he was recorded in history, together with a friend, I Gusti Ngurah Gorda as the founder of Undiknas, now known as Undiknas University.
Now, Undiknas University is under the leadership of Chancellor Professor Sri Darma D.B.A, who is none other than the number two child of I Ketut Sambereg. This book not only tells the process of how Professor Sri Darma was elected as chancellor, but also his life history. Starting from how the father formed the character of Professor Sri Darma starting from childhood, elementary school, junior high school, and high school, and how Professor Sri Darma finally matured the character that was formed in universities, in Bali, Yogyakarta and Australia.
Without the right educational background, Professor Sri Darma will not be able to carry out his duties as chancellor in the midst of an increasingly global era and is filled with digital equipment. The background in electrical science at the undergraduate level makes Professor Sri Darma not bored. Studying at S2 Masters of Management in UGM makes it has a strong scientific basis so that it can adjust to when taking doctoral education in business management in Australia.
The management he applied in leading Undiknas University was a combination of experiences he gained from universities, especially when studying at UGM and Australia. During his leadership, Undiknas was also known as a university that was able to include IT in lectures. By carrying out the motto Move to Global and Digital, teaching and learning activities on this campus take place digitally.
Now, in 2014 Professor Sri Darma was able to deliver the Management Study Program and Master of Management at Undiknas University to achieve accreditation A. Moreover, under the leadership of Professor Sri Darma, Undiknas University became the only PTS in Kopertis VIII that has been accredited by AIPT accreditation institutions with a score of 342 or a score of B. Undiknas University only needs 19 points to be able to achieve the accreditation of an A grade in 2019, as a condition for being able to issue a diploma legally.
Thus, this book comes in the midst of the scarcity of young people who are eager to organize their present to reach a brighter future. Professor Sri Darma has instilled inspirational and educative values for the present by devoting himself to the world of education.
That is the essence that I can present, for more details, please read in its entirety, so that the storyline is clearly illustrated. It can be said that the stories presented in this book are entirely like what was told by Professor Sri Darma, here and there indeed seems to be an analysis, but lacks meaning. This is what in scientific knowledge is called a portrait biography, which is only able to explain the character from within himself. Even so, Professor Sri Darma guarantees that the stories told to the author are true based on their own experiences.
