From the perspective of accelerating the construction of China’s modern university system, it has become an urgent issue that cannot be avoided in the healthy development of China’s higher education to re-examine the ethical relationship between teachers and students.

　　The roles between teachers and students in colleges and universities are not equal. Even if the relationship between teachers and students is pure, it will undermine fair competition, which is not in line with the principle of interest avoidance in the modern university system.

　　It is also in line with the basic principles of professional ethics to prohibit the love between teachers and students. This means that if you choose a teacher as a profession, you should give up some aspects of freedom.

　　Should other forms of relationships beyond teachers and students be allowed on campus?

　　In 2010, the General Office of the State Council issued the Notice on Launching the Pilot Reform of the National Education System, which clarified the reform task of establishing a modern university system. The author finds that bringing the connotation and extension of modern university system into operation under the national conditions of China will inevitably face various obstacles and contradictions. Among them, the enrollment corruption, academic misconduct and the scandal between teachers and students are some realistic problems with great negative influence, and they are also urgent problems that must be solved in building a modern university system in China. For the latter, because it will involve sex, extramarital love and family conflicts, stimulating and challenging China’s traditional family ethics will often become the focus of public opinion and news media.

　　Especially in recent years, some well-known universities in China have frequently exposed the scandals of teachers and students. For example, a male professor of a university in Xiamen was reported to have been photographed half naked by students, and Professor jane doe was reported to have seduced his doctoral students. An associate professor at a university in Beijing was reported for having sex with female students; Long-term sexual abuse of female students by the vice president of a university in Shanghai was reported … … Similar cases occur frequently, and the list is endless.

　　The author sorts out some incidents in recent years and finds that the love between teachers and students is mostly due to conflicts such as interest disputes, emotional deception, family disputes, etc., and finally it is made public in the form of revelations, reports and sex scandals. One of the worst cases is that some teachers with corrupt moral character have sex with students through deception, hidden marriage, and even coercion and inducement, which has a very serious impact and consequences.

　　This kind of phenomenon has a bad influence on the reputation of colleges and universities, which greatly worsens the public’s perception of college teachers. There are even various malicious banter words such as "calling animals" instead of "professors" in society. The "rat excrement" effect of sex scandals in colleges and universities makes university teachers, who were originally intellectuals and shouldered the heavy responsibility of educating and educating people for the country, lose their dignity and reputation.

　　Therefore, from the perspective of accelerating the construction of China’s modern university system, it has become an urgent issue that cannot be avoided in the healthy development of higher education in China to re-examine the ethical relationship between teachers and students in universities, especially how to regulate and restrain the abnormal emotional and sexual relations between teachers and students on campus.

　　Under the modern university system, should the university campus allow other forms of relationship between teachers and students beyond teachers and students?

　　"Teachers and students can’t fall in love" is a well-known common sense in American universities.

　　We might as well look at how foreign universities view and deal with this problem.

　　Before the 1980s, there were no explicit provisions or restrictions on the emotional or other relationships between teachers and students in the teachers’ codes of American universities. However, in 1983, the dean of the School of Arts and Sciences of Harvard University publicly pointed out that the romantic relationship between teachers and students was wrong, which aroused a great discussion on this ethical relationship between teachers and students in the educational circles, feminist organizations and judicial circles in the United States. In 1984, Harvard University was the first to issue a ban on romantic relationships between professors (including their student assistants) and their direct students. In 1986, the University of Iowa also stipulated that professors were not allowed to have romantic relationships with students who were taking their own classes or guiding themselves. However, if students do not attend the professor’s class and are not the students instructed by the professor, this relationship can also be acquiesced.

　　This management mode of Harvard and the University of Iowa became the main mode for American universities to standardize the management of similar ethical relations between teachers and students in the 1980s and 1990s. Until 2001, a teacher at William and Mary College in Virginia revealed her love story with a married student, which caused a great sensation in the United States. This incident forced nine universities in California to jointly revise the teachers’ code and introduce stricter regulations, prohibiting all teachers and students from having any other relationship beyond the teacher-student relationship. This is the first time in American universities that teachers and students who have no direct guidance relationship can’t fall in love. The ban points out that no matter whether teachers are married or unmarried, they are not allowed to have a relationship with students. If there is a love affair, one of the parties must choose to leave school voluntarily — — Teachers leave or students drop out of school.

　　In practice, because teachers are on the power side, once this relationship between teachers and students is made public, schools often punish teachers instead of students. With few exceptions, any teacher who has this relationship will be fired or expelled once he is found out. At present, this code has been adopted by most American universities, especially famous private universities.

　　After more than 30 years of constant debate and revision, it is now a common sense that "teachers and students can’t fall in love" in American colleges and universities.

　　Japan is a relatively open country, but the requirements and supervision of university teachers are very strict. In Japan, the relationship between teachers and students is very sensitive. Once the abnormal relationship between teachers and students is found, the parties will face severe punishment, and students will not dare to sacrifice their reputation to have intimate relations with teachers. In 1993, Professor Kyono Chang of Kyoto University was forced to quit his teaching post because of the affair of sex, and went to Tofuku-ji Temple, the capital of Kyoto, to practice, and was soon expelled from the temple. In 1996, he had to leave Japan and was abandoned by Japanese society. In 1999, he died in another country, with a miserable end.

　　In Britain, due to many sexual harassment incidents on campus, in 2007, many universities stipulated that teachers should report to the school if they fall in love with students, so as to prevent teachers from "favoritism" or sexually harassing students.

　　In Germany, although there is no special law explicitly prohibiting the love between teachers and students in colleges and universities, the so-called love between teachers and students or similar relationship beyond teaching and learning will not only be condemned by morality, but also violate the professional standards of teachers. Especially in recent years, with the younger teachers in Germany and the increasingly precocious students, teacher-student love and other events that are not in proper relationship, the relevant German institutions have begun to appeal in the Federal Parliament to draft special laws as soon as possible to prohibit teachers from having love relationships and sexual behaviors with students.

　　It can be seen that some countries, such as Japan and the United States, have strict control over teachers and students’ feelings beyond teachers and students or proper relationship.

　　The "Red Seven Articles" in colleges and universities should explicitly prohibit any form of teacher-student love.

　　The author believes that on the basis of learning from foreign experience, it is necessary to carefully examine and sort out the new ethical relationship between teachers and students in modern university campuses, make detailed definitions and norms, and introduce relevant measures and management methods.

　　Traditionally speaking, China has been a country that respects teachers and values education since ancient times. It has the traditional thought of "learning to be a teacher and being a model", and even more, it has the ethical concept of "being a teacher for a day and being a father for life". It is these cultures that are deeply rooted in people’s hearts that make teachers a noble and sacred profession, and also have higher expectations and requirements for teachers’ ethics.

　　In 2014, the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader emphasized at the Teachers’ Day Symposium of Beijing Normal University: "A qualified teacher should first be morally qualified, and a good teacher should first be a model of teaching and standing by virtue. We must actively guide the majority of college teachers to be good teachers who are satisfied with the party and the people with ideals and beliefs, moral sentiments, solid knowledge and kindness. "

　　In response to the call, the Ministry of Education immediately issued the "Opinions on Establishing and Perfecting the Long-term Mechanism of Teachers’ Morality Construction in Colleges and Universities", and drew out the "Red Seven Articles" of teachers’ morality prohibition behaviors that have warning and educational significance for college teachers. Article 7 clearly stipulates: "Sexual harassment of students or proper relationship with students, and other behaviors that violate the professional ethics of college teachers are strictly prohibited." The author believes that the "Red Seven Articles" is of milestone significance for standardizing the ethical relationship between teachers and students in colleges and universities under the modern university system and building teachers’ ethics in colleges and universities.

　　The launch of the "Red Seven Articles" in colleges and universities is just the right time, especially the seventh article, which sets a circle and rules for establishing the normal ethical relationship between teachers and students in colleges and universities. Here, the author also wants to put forward specific suggestions on article 7 from the implementation level:

　　On the one hand, it is necessary to explicitly prohibit any form of college teacher-student love.

　　One view is that teachers and students in colleges and universities are adults, and there is no identity problem. It is normal for teachers and students to fall in love freely. China’s cultural tradition holds a favorable or tolerant attitude towards other forms of relations between teachers and students in colleges and universities that surpass teachers and students. Tracing back to the Republic of China, there are many literary stories in which teachers and students such as Lu Xun and Xu Guangping, Qu Qiubai and Yang Zhihua, Shen Congwen and Zhang Zhaohe fell in love and got married. In 2014, the media reported that a senior student of a university in Jilin successfully proposed marriage to a university teacher who had been in love for three years, and public opinion was full of support and praise.

　　In fact, from the perspective of ethics, in addition to the traditional basic relationship between teachers and students, in the modern university system, emotional and even sexual relations between teachers and students have become more and more sensitive in the ethical relationship between teachers and students. Because it is difficult to define, standardize and deal with, it forms a vague area in people’s understanding and also causes great controversy.

　　In my opinion, although college students are adults, their world outlook, outlook on life and values are still in a critical period of formation, and their minds are not fully mature, so the love between teachers and students is hardly pure love. What is important is that the roles between teachers and students in colleges and universities are not equal, and there are relationships in management, power and interests. Even if teachers and students are pure emotional relationships, this relationship will undermine fair competition and does not conform to the principle of interest avoidance in the modern university system.

　　It is also in line with the basic principles of professional ethics to prohibit the love between teachers and students. Just like doctors and patients, lawyers and clients, priests and church members can’t fall in love or have sexual relations, the requirements of teacher-student relationship should also be in line with these occupations. This means that if you choose a teacher as a career, you should give up some aspects of freedom.

　　On the other hand, strengthen the supervision and management of the ethical relationship between teachers and students in colleges and universities, and strengthen the accountability of those who touch the red line. According to the author’s observation, in recent years, the relevant units have been excessively lenient in dealing with the exposed peach affair and sex scandal. After the incident is exposed, the radish is often pulled out and the mud is brought up. With other lesions such as academic misconduct and misappropriation of funds, the units involved classify emotional and sexual relations as private morality and pay insufficient attention to them. Often, the board is held high and gently put down. In particular, some people involved in the case have certain academic attainments, titles and hats, and the units concerned even use the excuse of cherishing talents and rare talents to minimize major issues and avoid troubles. What’s more, some parties can continue to stay in the teaching staff by changing units, which is not affected at all.

　　In addition, the relevant accountability means are not clear and specific enough. It can be seen from the handling results of several incidents exposed on the Internet that it is difficult to find relevant basis and clear explanation for the handling and punishment of teachers and students who are not proper relationship, and even the Red Seven Articles have not given specific disciplinary measures and measures; As a weak group, it is difficult for students to find effective complaint channels and departments after the incident, and their interests cannot be protected. In the end, they can only be exposed on the Internet, forming a whirlpool of public opinion. This also shows that the supervision responsibility of discipline supervision units in some units is not in place, and discipline is lost.

　　China’s higher education is in the process of all-round modernization, and many universities are drafting university statutes to establish a modern university system. The author hereby appeals that we should start with standardizing and reconstructing the ethics of teachers and students in colleges and universities, seriously consider and sort out how to establish a healthy and good relationship between teachers and students under the modern university system, unify our thinking and understanding, and pay more attention to the frequent campus peach scandals in recent years, and increase the handling and punishment. By establishing rules and regulations, prevention comes first, and the campus atmosphere is further purified, creating a clean environment for the healthy growth of students and escorting the training of young talents.

　　The rule of law makes the nation prosperous, and the rule of law makes the country strong. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core has made great efforts to adhere to and develop the rule of law in Socialism with Chinese characteristics, lay out the rule of law and enforce the rule of law, and put the rule of law in an all-round way into the "four comprehensive" strategic layout. The supreme leader’s thought of rule of law led the construction of China ruled by law to stride forward, wrote a new chapter of "the rule of China" and opened up a new realm of socialist rule of law theory and practice. The Party’s leadership over comprehensively administering the country according to law has become stronger and stronger, the overall pattern of comprehensively administering the country according to law has basically taken shape, Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s rule of law system has been continuously improved, a country ruled by law, a government ruled by law and a society ruled by law have made solid progress, scientific legislation, strict law enforcement, fair justice and law-abiding for the whole people have made great progress, the reform in the field of the rule of law has been pushed forward in an unprecedented breadth and depth, the role of the rule of law in ensuring stability, stability and long-term benefits has been further exerted, and China’s socialist rule of law construction has made historic achievements and changes. In this process, the supreme leader’s thought of rule of law shows the powerful truth power and the great practical power.

　　Fair justice is an important part of comprehensively governing the country according to law. Under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, the people’s courts adhere to the guidance of the Supreme Leader’s Socialism with Chinese characteristics Thought in the new era, thoroughly implement the Supreme Leader’s thought on the rule of law, deeply understand the decisive significance of the "two establishment", strengthen the "four consciousnesses", strengthen the "four self-confidences" and achieve the "two maintenance", unswervingly adhere to the Party’s absolute leadership over judicial work, and unswervingly follow the road of rule of law in Socialism with Chinese characteristics. Focusing on the goal of making the people feel fair and just in every judicial case, we will persist in serving the overall situation, serving the people and administering justice fairly, and further promote the reform of the judicial system and the construction of smart courts. The modernization level of the judicial system and judicial capacity has been continuously improved, and the work of the people’s courts has undergone profound changes and made great progress from concept to practice, from system to mechanism, from style to ability, making positive contributions to building a higher level of peaceful China and China ruled by law, and building a socialist modern country in an all-round way.

　　The party’s absolute leadership over judicial work has been comprehensively strengthened. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "The leadership of the Party is the soul of the rule of law in Socialism with Chinese characteristics and the biggest difference between our rule of law and the rule of law in western capitalist countries." The people’s courts always take the party’s banner as the banner, the party’s direction as the direction, and the party’s will as the will, and deeply engrave the absolute leadership of the party in the soul and cast it in the blood. Always take "two safeguards" as the primary task and run through the whole process of serving the overall situation, serving the people and just justice, constantly improve political judgment, political understanding and political execution, and practice the political requirements of maintaining the core, absolute loyalty, listening to the party’s command and courage to take responsibility with practical actions. True learning firmly believes in the supreme leader’s thought of ruling by law, faithfully implements the party’s theory, line, principles and policies in its work, and constantly enhances its ability to guide practice, solve problems and promote work with the party’s innovative theory. Insist on observing and handling problems politically, understanding and promoting judicial work, consciously unify politics with law, unify the implementation of the party’s line, principles and policies with the implementation of national laws, and resolutely implement and safeguard the party’s overall leadership.

　　The ability to serve the overall situation has been significantly improved. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s practice will advance further, and the rule of law will follow." The people’s courts always keep in mind the "country is the biggest", fully implement the requirements of overall development and security, give full play to the leading, regulating and guaranteeing role of the rule of law in reform, development and stability based on the administration of justice, perform their duties steadily around the overall situation of economic and social development, and strive to make sure that the implementation of the work of the people’s courts will follow wherever the decision of the CPC Central Committee is deployed. We will fully implement the overall concept of national security, punish all kinds of criminal crimes in accordance with the law, prevent and resolve major risks, resolutely complete the task of eliminating evil and eliminating evil, increase the punishment of new cybercrime, promote the solution of outstanding problems related to the safety of people’s production and life, such as "on the tip of the needle", "on the tip of the tongue" and "under the foot", and earnestly fulfill the major responsibility of safeguarding national security, social stability and people’s peace. Correcting a number of unjust and wrong cases according to law will make the judicial protection of human rights more powerful and the judicial protection of property rights more effective. Focusing on major strategies such as coordinated development of service areas, strengthening the country with intellectual property rights, comprehensively revitalizing the countryside, and ecological protection and restoration, a series of judicial policies were issued and a number of landmark cases were tried. Focusing on effectively coordinating epidemic prevention and control and economic and social development, we will implement the requirements of preventing and controlling epidemic situations according to law and punish epidemic-related crimes according to law.Prevent and resolve the contradictions related to the epidemic from the source, introduce judicial measures such as 20 judicial measures to help small and medium-sized enterprises develop, and a series of judicial policies to deal with civil and commercial cases related to the epidemic, and effectively solve problems for market players. Efforts will be made to create a market-oriented, rule-based and international business environment and continuously improve the quality, efficiency and transparency of the judiciary. Focusing on promoting the domestic rule of law and foreign-related rule of law as a whole, resolutely safeguarding national sovereignty, security and development interests, and comprehensively improving the quality and effectiveness of foreign-related justice, the international credibility and influence of China’s justice are increasing. We will improve the judicial measures to jointly build the "Belt and Road" high-quality development and the construction of a pilot free trade zone and a free trade port, improve the international commercial dispute settlement mechanism, build an international maritime justice center, and serve the high-level opening up according to law. Deepen international judicial exchanges and practical cooperation, issue the Shanghai Declaration of the World Executive Conference, the Wuzhen Declaration of the World Internet Rule of Law Forum and the Kunming Declaration of the World Environmental Justice Conference with relevant countries and international organizations, actively participate in the global governance of intellectual property rights, ecological environment and digital economy, and contribute the wisdom and strength of the rule of law in China to promote the building of a community of human destiny.

　　The road of China’s characteristic justice for the people is getting wider and wider. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "The broadest and deepest foundation for comprehensively governing the country according to law is the people, and we must persist in serving and relying on the people." The people’s courts resolutely implement the people-centered development thought, deeply practice the purpose of justice for the people, protect people’s rights and interests according to law, resolve contradictions and disputes in a timely, efficient and convenient manner, and strive to make the people feel that fairness and justice are around. We should take into account the laws of the country and human feelings, adhere to the principle of taking the law as the basis, convincing people with reasoning and emotional people, and strive to solve the "legal knot" of the case and untie the "heart knot" of the masses. Vigorously carry forward the core values of socialism, take a clear-cut stand to protect the rights and interests of heroes and heroes, protect honesty and trustworthiness, punish violations of law and morality, and make justice in the new era powerful and warm. For a long time, we have strengthened the judicial protection of people’s livelihood, deepened the reform of family trials, safeguarded the right to fair employment, promoted the unification of compensation standards for personal injuries of urban and rural residents, and protected the legitimate rights and interests of online consumers and workers in new formats. In the past 10 years, more than 30 million livelihood cases involving education, employment, medical care, old-age care, consumption, housing and social security have been properly concluded, and the people have been guaranteed to live and work in peace and contentment by the rule of law. Always take the voice of the people as the first signal. When the people reflected the difficulty of filing a case, they made efforts to solve it. From the full implementation of the registration system to the extensive implementation of cross-domain filing litigation services, the problem of filing a case has truly become history. When the people reflect the difficulties in implementation, they will make efforts to solve them.It will take three years to win the tough battle to basically solve the implementation difficulties, and the implementation system, mechanism and mode with China characteristics will be more sound and powerful. Adhere to and develop the "Maple Bridge Experience" in the new era, actively establish the Maple Bridge People’s Court, and vigorously promote the construction of alternative dispute resolution mechanisms and online dispute resolution mechanisms to facilitate the masses to resolve conflicts and disputes fairly, efficiently and substantively. China has built a one-stop multi-dispute resolution and litigation service system with China characteristics, which has the largest linkage resources, the most comprehensive online mediation and the widest service target. The China brand with justice for the people has a better color and a brighter background.

　　The reform of the judicial system has accumulated momentum. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "Deepening the reform of the judicial system and building a fair, efficient and authoritative socialist judicial system are important measures to promote the modernization of the national governance system and governance capacity." The people’s courts resolutely implement the judicial reform plan of the CPC Central Committee, rush to problems and face difficulties, focus on solving deep-seated problems that affect judicial justice and restrict judicial ability, and break down institutional, institutional and supportive obstacles. The reform of the judicial system has been from tamping the foundation to accumulating strength, the quality, efficiency and credibility of the judiciary have been continuously improved, and the fair, efficient and authoritative socialist judicial system has become more mature and stereotyped. Fully implement the judicial responsibility system, implement the judge post system, improve the classified management of judicial personnel, and constantly improve the responsibility system of "letting the judges judge and the judges are responsible". We will promote the reform of the trial-centered litigation system, implement the three rules of pre-trial meeting, court investigation and illegal evidence exclusion, and strive to achieve substantive justice in case adjudication through procedural justice in court trials. We will deepen the reform of the system of pleading guilty and accepting punishment with leniency, promote the pilot project of separating the complexity and simplification of civil litigation procedures, and accelerate the construction of a three-dimensional, diversified and refined litigation procedure system. Set up the the Supreme People’s Court Circuit Court, improve the organizational system of the people’s courts, improve the people’s jury system, improve the judicial supervision system, improve the unified legal application mechanism, deepen the comprehensive reform of the judicial system, and improve the trial-level function orientation of the four-level courts, and so on. One reform after another has been effective.The new judicial management system and judicial power operation mechanism have gradually taken shape, and fairness and justice have become the bright background of justice in the new era.

　　The construction of smart courts is iteratively upgraded. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader pointed out: "We should follow the judicial laws, combine the deepening of judicial system reform with the application of modern science and technology, and constantly improve and develop Socialism with Chinese characteristics’s judicial system." The people’s courts make full use of modern science and technology, regard the construction of smart courts as one of the two-wheel drives to promote the modernization of the trial system and trial capacity, and insist on using scientific and technological means to empower the judiciary, safeguard rights and interests and safeguard justice. The national fourth-level courts and people’s courts handle cases through a network, and build a smart court with full-service online handling, full-process publicity according to law and all-round intelligent services. In the prevention and control of epidemic situation, the smart court "shows its talents" and effectively guarantees the trial execution. Fairness and justice do not stop. Deepen judicial openness, persist in promoting justice through openness, and make fairness and justice visible, evaluable and supervised. Four public platforms of trial process, trial activities, judgment documents and execution information have been built, and an information network of the whole process of commutation and parole cases has been built. An open, dynamic, transparent and convenient sunshine judicial mechanism has been formed, which has become an important window to show China’s judicial justice and a beautiful business card to show the confidence of the judicial system. Three rules of online litigation, online mediation and online operation of people’s courts and opinions on strengthening the judicial application of blockchain have been issued one after another. Internet justice in China has gradually moved from technology leading to rule leading, providing a Chinese plan for the development of global Internet rule of law and striving to create a higher level of digital justice for the people.

　　The court team has undergone revolutionary forging. General Secretary of the Supreme Leader stressed: "To comprehensively promote the rule of law, we must first build a special team." In accordance with the requirements of excellent politics, excellent business, excellent responsibility, excellent discipline and excellent work style, the people’s courts have strengthened the revolutionary, regular, professional and professional construction of the court team, and made great efforts to forge a court team that the party and the people can trust, be reliable and be assured. Always take the party’s political construction as the guide, promote the trial with the party’s leadership, carry out in-depth education on strengthening the awareness of political organs and the special education of "upholding the party’s absolute leadership over judicial work and adhering to the road of rule of law in Socialism with Chinese characteristics", strictly observe political discipline and rules, and ensure the absolute loyalty, purity and reliability of the court team. Insist on strengthening the education of ideals and beliefs, guide the court police to firmly establish the socialist concept of the rule of law, abide by professional ethics, believe in the law, adhere to the rule of law, and impartially administer justice. Always attach more importance to professional construction, emphasize practical, practical and effective orientation, improve the training mechanism of high-level professional talents, and comprehensively improve the ability to apply laws and policies, prevent and control risks, work with the masses, apply science and technology, and guide public opinion. Strictly manage the party and police in an all-round way, adhere to strict education, strict management and strict supervision, severely punish judicial corruption with a zero-tolerance attitude, and strictly enforce the "three regulations" to prevent interference in the judiciary and the "ten prohibitions" for political and legal police officers in the new era.Ensure fair and honest administration of justice. Through unremitting efforts, especially the rectification and baptism of the team education, the political ecology of the national courts has been continuously optimized, the discipline style has improved obviously, and the quality and ability of the team have been continuously enhanced, showing the political nature of the court team loyal to the party, the country, the people and the law in the new era.

　　On the new journey, we should unite more closely around the CPC Central Committee with the Supreme Leader as the core, under the scientific guidance of the Supreme Leader’s thought of rule of law, unswervingly forge ahead along the road of rule of law in Socialism with Chinese characteristics, strive to create a higher level of socialist judicial civilization, better perform the duties and tasks of safeguarding national political security, ensuring the stability of the overall social situation, promoting social fairness and justice, and ensuring people’s living and working in peace and contentment, and forge ahead in a new journey and a new era with a more high-spirited attitude.
