One of religious thought transmission media among Islamic student organizations activists was cadre education and inter-forum discussions between fellow activists. The increasing demographic of young people accompanied by open political structures and narrow job opportunities making transmission of radicalism movements possible. This paper aims to examine the moderation of religious thought and activism of Islamic student organizations activists through cadre education and their discourses on nowadays religious situations in Indonesia, particularly in Jambi where this research was specifically conducted on activists of three Islamic student organizations: PMII, HMI and KAMMI. Data collecting was carried out through observation on formal and informal caderization trainings in each organization followed with interviews of four mentors of cadre training. The results of the study indicated that religious moderation and tolerance taught and discussed among activists. They differ in views and opinions, both among activists from the same organization, as well as with other activists outside the organization, in looking at Indonesia’s current socio-religious situation. However, they put significant attention on peace and sustainability of the unitary state of Indonesia or Negara Kesatuan Republik Indonesia.
