Abstract

The phenomenon of back-row seating, or students’ tendency to choose seats at the back of the classroom, is common in lectures. Previous research has linked seating position to comfort, concentration, and academic achievement. Unlike those studies, this study emphasizes etiquette, academic responsibility, and the practice of the values of the second principle of the Indonesian ideology, Pancasila: Just and Civilized Humanity. The study aims to determine students’ opinions on back-row seating in terms of etiquette and responsibility, in line with the second principle of Pancasila. A descriptive quantitative method was used, involving 59 UIN Walisongo Semarang students who were selected through convenience sampling. Data were collected using a five-point Likert-scale questionnaire and analyzed using descriptive statistics, including frequencies, percentages, and averages. The results show that sitting in the front improves understanding, focus, and learning responsibility. However, some students choose to sit in the back for comfort. These findings are expected to inform the development of students’ character.
