The event ended with the Rector and Deans from each faculty entrusting bicycles to a student representative. With this bicycle entrustment, it is intended that all civitas academica of UIII will be able to undertake their activities on the UIII campus while maintaining their commitment to living healthy and living on a green campus by riding bicycles.
