The purpose of this study is to obtain the factors that influence the decision of IPB students, generation of 2012/2013, in choosing IPB as a place to continue their higher education. Data collection was performed by the method of random sampling strata. In preliminary survey result, it was found 32 reason statements of IPB students, generation of 2012/2013, in choosing IPB as a place to pursue their higher education. The data obtained were then processed using factor analysis, and the results of this processing were used to classify the 32 reason statements into 10 factors with a cumulative variability percentage that can be explained in the amount of 71.265%. These factors are namely IPB factor as agricultural-based university and the ideals of the prospective students, IPB factor as qualified university and its good future promise, cost factor and IPB student characteristics, promotion factor and IPB campus environmental factor, native school environmental factor, IPB factor as a proud state university, knowledge factor of the university, students family environmental factor, major subject desired factor and IPB location, and IPB factor as the top choice university.

Judul: Kajian Indikator Motivasi Dalam Memilih IPB Pada Mahasiswa Angkatan 50
Abstrak: Bogor Agricultural University (IPB) is one of higher education providers services in Indonesia. IPB much in demand among the community as a place to gain an education. This is shown by the increasing number of applicants each year in IPB. The aim of the research was to analyze the motivation of students IPB in choosing IPB as a place to gain higher education and knowing the dominant factor which could affect the decision in choosing IPB. The study used a survey method. Factor analysis was a multivariate method used to analyze the variables that allegedly related with one to another so that relation can be described and mapped or grouped on the right factors. The results of the research indicated that the dominant motivating factor in choosing IPB as continuing education was because IPB accreditation status with total of eigen value is 7,929 or 22,654%. The results from SEM showed that students IPB (2013/2014) more internally motivated than externally., services in Indonesia. IPB much in demand among the community as a place to gain an education.

Judul: Infeksi leucocytozoon Smithi (Laveran dan Lucet, 1905) pada kalkun
Abstrak: Leucocytozoon smithi adalah parasit darah yang menyebabkan leucocytozoonosis pada kalkun, dan termasuk dalam genus Leucocytozoon yang perkembangan skizogoninya terja- di dalam sel-sel endotel dan sel-sel parenkhim hati, jan- tung, ginjal dan organ-organ lain dari unggas. Genus ini menghasilkan skizon yang besar. Gametogoninya terjadi di dalam sel-sel darah dan sel yang terinfeksi dapat berubah bentuk dan mengambil bentuk kumparan. Parasit ini tidak menghasilkan pigmen dan ditularkan oleh lalat penghisap darah dari genus Simulium. Infeksi kalkun terjadi pada saat sporozoit masuk ke dalam peredaran darah dan selanjutnya masuk ke dalam sel- sel parenkhim hati. Siklus hidupnya mirip dengan siklus hidup L. simondi seperti yang diuraikan di bawah ini. Skizogoni yang terjadi di dalam hati menghasilkan skizon hepatik. Skizon hepatik dewasa menghasilkan merozoit dan sinsitia. Merozoit dari skizon hepatik memasuki eritroblas dan eritrosit dan membentuk gametosit bulat, sedangkan sinsitianya dapat masuk ke dalam sel-sel RES dan kemudian membentuk megaloskizon. Megaloskizon dewasa menghasilkan merozoit yang kemudian masuk ke dalam limfosit dan leukosit lain membentuk gametosit memanjang. Gametositgametosit ini akan menjadi makrogametosit dan mikrogametosit. Perkembangan parasit dalam tubuh vektor (Simulium), segera dimulai setelah vektor menghisap darah kalkun yang mengandung gametosit ini. Dalam tubuh vektor ini akan ter- jadi pembuahan makrogamet oleh mikrogamet (tahap gametogoni). Dari pembuahan ini dihasilkan zigot yang bergerak (ookinet). Ookinet akan masuk dinding usus vektor untuk memulai tahap sporogoni yang menghasilkan sporozoit. Sporozoit ini akan menuju ke kelenjar ludah dan dari sini dapat dipindahkan lagi ke tubuh kalkun pada saat vektor menghisap darah. Vektor untuk L. smithi adalah S. occidentale, S. nigroparvum, S. slossonae, S. nigritarse. L. smithi berbahaya, terutama bagi kalkun-kalkun muda. Mortalitasnya dapat mencapai 90 persen. Gejala klinis yang ditimbulkannya antara lain anorexia, lemas dan cenderung untuk duduk, kekurusan dan kelemahan, sesak nafas dan in- koordinasi dan terjungkal terlihat pada stadium akhir dan selanjutnya kalkun mengalami coma kemudian mati…dst
