The "initiation" of a new student entering a university in Indonesia consists of a series of courses conducted by the Red Cross. At the beginning of the school year, the Red Cross hold a "medical week" consisting of lectures on first aid, the care of the sick, blood transfusion and social work. Students enroll as blood donors and organise campaigns to collect medicine, clothing and food. After their "initiation", many students continue to work for the Red Cross either as first-aid instructors or as members of its corps of volunteers. (U.N.E.S.C.O. Features, Paris).
