This study examined Sundanese students’ attitudes toward Sundanese and its cultural heritage. As college students, it is critical to discover vernacular attitudes, since their advanced education is expected to encourage them to preserve Sundanese language and culture among their surroundings and peers. This study aimed to ascertain participants' attitudes toward the Sundanese language and culture in their daily lives, their attempts to conserve them, and the barriers to their preservation. This study used a descriptive mixed method design. 46 Sundanese-speaking tertiary students from three universities in West Java participated in the study.
