<![CDATA[This research is motivated by the increasingly complex moral crisis of the young generation in the midst of globalization and digitalization, as well as the lack of optimal integration of pesantren traditions in the formation of student character in Islamic universities. This study aims to analyze the form and implementation of pesantren traditions, identify strategies for shaping student character, and describe the effectiveness of these strategies at STAI Al Anwar Sarang Rembang. The research uses a qualitative approach with a case study type. Data sources include key informants, namely campus leaders, lecturers, students, and community leaders, as well as supporting data in the form of policy documents and field observations. The results of the study show that Islamic boarding school traditions such as halaqah of the yellow book, congregational prayers, dhikr, mujahadah, and ta'dzim to teachers are implemented in an integrated manner in academic and non-academic activities. The character formation strategy includes institutional strengthening based on the vision of the Islamic boarding school, curriculum integration with affective assessment, exemplary lecturers as murabbi, habituation of values through collective spiritual activities, active involvement of students, and synergy with partner Islamic boarding schools and alumni. This strategy has proven to be effective characterized by improving students' manners, discipline, responsibility, and social participation. Supporting factors include a strong pesantren culture, lecturer examples, and community support, while inhibiting factors include differences in student backgrounds and the influence of digital culture.]]>
