This research used a descriptive qualitative research method involving 9 participants who were first-semester students in the English department at K.H. University. Abdul Chalim. The results of this research reveal that there are two parties, namely supporting and rejecting. Each party has its reasons. However, this research is limited in the variety of research participants.
