Purpose: the objective of this study is to analyze the career anchors (Schein, 1974) of university students involved in social activities. Design/methodology/approach: we chose a quantitative descriptive approach, with the application of a questionnaire to 68 young students participating in the CHOICE ambassador program. Findings: results showed the predominance of the service and dedication to a cause anchor, and the relevance of acting in student and volunteer organizations. The career anchor acts as an influencing factor for the interest in social businesses, while previous involvement in other social activities (volunteering and student entities) seems to be the indicator that shows how much the individual will effectively move in the direction of social businesses. Originality/value: this result demonstrates the existing alignment between the search for a purpose and working in social businesses. Although the involvement in social activities is becoming increasingly present in university life, companies still do not know how to determine the value of these experiences. Therefore, we emphasize the importance of studying this phenomenon and bringing information that allows these barriers to break, after all, society increasingly needs new solutions to social problems.

Evaluation of type and planting system at the median road of Ir. SoekarnoMedian strips the City of Saumlaki, Maluku Tenggara Barat. Planting plants in the median strip Ir. Soekarno was dominated by Trembesi trees (Samanea saman) with tree branches that grew beyond the median strip. It was quite dangerous for road users because the Trembesi trees can easily be fallen when exposed to strong winds. Despite its problems, the Trembesi tree had ecological potential benefits such as the highest oxygen-producing and pollutant-absorbing capacity. This study aims to determine and evaluate the types of plants in terms of the physical categories and functions of plants and spacing. This study was located in Ir.
