College students' honesty education is a part of national honesty education. Its purpose is to cultivate college students' awareness of honesty, improve their own quality, consciously resist corruption, report corruption, and let corruption have nowhere to hide. In 1990s, Transparency International (Italy) investigated the causes of corruption in Italy and found that one of the root causes of corruption was the tolerance of ordinary citizens to corruption. Many Italians still believe that corruption is only related to the public sector, politicians and enterprises, and has nothing to do with their personal lives. In China, there are also many people who are indifferent to corruption. College students are the elites and pillars of society. Therefore, it is of special significance to carry out honesty education for college students. 1. is conducive to carrying forward the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation.
Honesty education for college students is an effective way to carry forward the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation. The Chinese nation is a nation with excellent cultural traditions, which is recognized by the world and is also a place we are proud of. The Chinese nation has a fine tradition of advocating honesty since ancient times. Since ancient times, the Chinese nation has paid attention to the standard of "honesty" in personnel training and official selection. "Zhou Li" said: "It is necessary to listen to the six measures of the government to rule the evil official group. One day, two days, three days, four days, five days and six days. " In other words, although the achievements of officials of all sizes include six aspects: kindness, ability, respect, justice, law and discrimination, they are all based on honesty and should embody the basic spirit of "honesty". As far as the mechanism of controlling corruption is concerned, China has always attached importance to the establishment of a supervision system for officials (most of the time called "imperial examination") and a strict system of selecting officials, namely the imperial examination system. These traditions of institutional civilization are rarely understood by college students, especially science and engineering students. Therefore, it is of great significance for college students to carry out honesty education, enhance their honesty consciousness and cultivate their honesty quality, so as to understand and understand the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation and cultivate national self-esteem, national self-improvement and national dedication. Our ancestors created achievements ahead of the world civilization, and we contemporary college students should shoulder the sacred mission of making the Chinese nation stand tall in the world. There is a premise here, that is, we must first establish a clean and just society. It is necessary to purify the social environment.
A clean society includes the integrity of civil servants and other members of society. In order to curb the corrupt motives of public officials, we have carried out clean government education or cadre education. However, there are some limitations only in restraining the corrupt motives of public officials. As a public official, Gang Wei does not live in a vacuum, and his thoughts are deeply influenced by the social environment. Some public officials have finally taken the road of abusing their power, which has the internal reasons for their ideological changes, but various temptations from society are also the important reasons for their depravity. In many official corruption cases, we can clearly see that external factors such as unhealthy social relations have triggered and intensified the ideological transformation process of leading cadres. Corrupt transactions usually have both demand and supply, and often stimulate each other. Therefore, only by starting from both supply and demand can we fundamentally cut off the chain of corruption. Because there are internal and external reasons for the breeding of public officials' corruption consciousness, it is far from enough to effectively curb these corruption consciousness only by educating public officials in a clean government without paying attention to purifying the social environment. At the same time, only by establishing a relatively clean society can we establish a social atmosphere of being ashamed of greed and proud of honesty in the whole society and enhance the immunity of the whole society. Colleges and universities are an important part of the social environment, and college students are the main builders of a clean society in the future. It is of great significance to carry out honesty education among college students. Without a clean society, there can be no clean politics and clean government.
3. It is necessary to establish a system for punishing and preventing corruption.
Establishing and perfecting the system of punishing and preventing corruption with equal emphasis on education, system and supervision is an important task for colleges and universities to carry out clean education for college students. Insisting on treating both the symptoms and root causes, comprehensively managing, punishing and preventing corruption, and establishing a sound system of punishing and preventing corruption with equal emphasis on education, system and supervision is a major strategic decision made by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on the basis of summing up historical experience and scientifically judging the situation, and also conforms to the situation of global anti-corruption strategic transformation. Transparency International believes that honesty education is essential to prevent corruption, because no matter how perfect the system is, it cannot completely prevent corruption. Before that, we mainly punished or cracked down on corruption, and seldom thought of preventing this incurable disease. This is just like the medical skill of Bian Que, a famous doctor in the history of our country. Bian Que is famous for being good at treating diseases, but when King Wen of Wei asked his brothers who had the best medical skills, Bian Que replied, "The eldest brother is the best, the second brother is the second, and I am the worst." When King Wen of Wei asked him why he was the most famous, Bian Que explained that his eldest brother had treated the disease before its onset. Ordinary people in Yu Nan don't know that he can eradicate the cause in advance, so his fame can't spread, only Bian Que's family knows; Second brother cured the disease at the early stage of the disease. Most people think that he can only cure minor illnesses, so the second brother is only famous in the village. And Bian Que's cure is to cure the disease when the condition is serious. What most people see is his major surgery, such as pricking needles in meridians to bleed blood and applying medicine to the skin. Therefore, everyone thinks that Bian Que's medical skill is the best, so his fame is very famous all over the country.
Heavily punishing corruption and focusing on major cases, like Bian Que's handling, can cause a sensation for a while, but it can't guarantee a clean society for a long time. Curing the "incurable disease" of corruption is a bit like preventing diseases. Only by taking a good vaccination can we prevent the occurrence of major diseases and ensure a person's health. If you don't pay attention to the prevention of the disease at ordinary times, wait until the disease happens before you treat it. Integrity education is an important measure to prevent corruption. You have to pay a higher price. The "Implementation Outline of Establishing and Perfecting the System of Punishing and Preventing Corruption with Equal Emphasis on Education, System and Supervision" promulgated by the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China clearly requires that anti-corruption education should face the whole society and combine ideological education, discipline education with social morality, professional ethics, family virtue education and legal education; Vigorously strengthen the construction of clean government culture, and actively promote clean government culture into communities, families, schools, enterprises and rural areas; We should take honesty education as an important part of ideological and moral education for teenagers, and cultivate their correct values and noble moral sentiments. Education is an important measure to eradicate the breeding ground of corruption from the source, and it is also a long-term work. The effect of education often takes a long time to fully show. Honesty education for college students is a basic project. One of the purposes is to let college students know what corruption is and what incorruptibility is, so that they can consciously resist corruption and report corruption. As westerners say: "As long as 99% people in a community disagree, even though one's views have a good legal basis, these behaviors will not be regarded as corruption." The core work of Transparency International is to cultivate the public's attitude of not tolerating corruption, because today's teenagers will be tomorrow's leaders, and educating teenagers about honesty will help to break the cycle of corruption. Strengthening college students' honesty education, guiding them to treat public interests, public resources and public relations correctly from the critical stage of life, treating both the symptoms and root causes, and paying attention to the root cause will help college students become constructive forces in anti-corruption work and lay a solid social foundation for the system of punishing and preventing corruption with equal emphasis on education, system and supervision. In order to implement the "Implementation Outline", on July 1 day, 2005, the Ministry of Education issued the "Opinions on Carrying out the Pilot Work of Honesty Education in Colleges, Universities and Primary Schools", demanding that on the basis of the experience gained from the pilot, honesty education should be fully spread in colleges, universities and primary schools as soon as possible. Carrying out college students' honesty education is a new topic in front of colleges and universities.
Honesty education for the whole society (including honesty education for college students) also draws lessons from Hong Kong's anti-corruption experience. The working experience of the Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption shows that anti-corruption work can only be successful if it is supported by the public. The Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption has adopted a "three-pronged" anti-corruption strategy of investigation, prevention and education. The main task of its community relations department is to publicize the anti-corruption struggle, promote civic awareness, cultivate citizens' sense of social responsibility and good morality, and actively win public support. ICAC especially encourages the public to report corruption. Reports and complaints from the public will be handled by a 24-hour report center which will be handled by experienced investigators. No matter how minor the complaint is, it will be included in the morning report, and the head of the executive office and the director-level staff will consider and decide whether to launch an investigation. The service standard promised by ICAC is to reply to corruption reports within 48 hours. All complaints will be kept confidential and the leaker will be investigated by law. According to statistics, only 30% of the reports received by the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) were signed at the beginning of its establishment, but by the 1990s, 70% of the informants were willing to disclose their information because they trusted ICAC, which shows that Hong Kong people are willing to do their utmost to maintain a clean and fair society. The experience of the Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption tells us that we must establish a stable and lasting mass anti-corruption mobilization and education system, win the trust of the people through strict law enforcement, and finally create a social atmosphere that respects honesty and opposes corruption. This is the need of building a harmonious society.
People are the main body of a harmonious society, and the moral self-discipline of social members, the harmonious coexistence of social groups and the good orientation of social customs are very important to promote social harmony. However, corruption is a cancer of society, an important factor leading to social disharmony and instability, and a destruction of human nature. The consequences of corruption affect the harmonious relationship among the elements of social organisms, thus hindering the construction of a harmonious socialist society. Therefore, to build a harmonious society, we must persist in fighting corruption and promoting honesty, and completely eliminate the cancer that hinders the harmonious development of society. The ultimate goal of education lies in the perfection and improvement of human nature and the development of society. The purpose of education determines that education has an unshirkable social responsibility for further promoting anti-corruption and building a harmonious society.
The perfection of human nature should be the all-round development of morality, intelligence, physique and beauty. Honesty is essentially a basic bottom line of being a man and a basic requirement for the perfection of human nature. Integrating college students' honesty education with ideological and moral education, so that they can establish positive, healthy and progressive ideals and beliefs, form correct values, consolidate the moral foundation of "fairness, justice, honesty and friendship" and improve their ability to resist corruption and change, not only fully conforms to the laws of personal growth and education, but also directly provides human resources with perfect humanity for building a harmonious society. Therefore, it is an important task for us to strengthen the honesty education of college students as the basic project of building a harmonious society.
The healthy growth of college students is an important foundation for building a harmonious society. Colleges and universities are a special organization, where talents are trained and transported, where talents are accumulated and where knowledge is gathered. As far as college students' honesty education is concerned, it is to guide students to establish a strong sense of social responsibility and honesty. Colleges and universities should actively serve the construction of a harmonious society in education and development, infiltrate this concept into the cultivation, scientific research and social services of college students, and cultivate their sense of responsibility through honesty education; Vigorously improve the comprehensive quality of students, so that the concept of the motherland, the people, fairness and justice and the collective concept can be firmly established. Carrying out honesty education for college students, arousing their moral awareness in practice, and guiding the majority of college students to correctly understand and deal with the relationship between individuals and others, individuals and collectives, and individuals and society in real life are of great significance for forming a social fashion of being proud of honesty and ashamed of greed, forming a new interpersonal relationship of unity, mutual assistance, equality, friendship and common progress, and promoting social stability and harmony. 5. It is the need to realize the training goal of colleges and universities.
Talent is a country's most precious resource and a decisive factor to maintain a country's comprehensive national strength and core competitiveness. High-quality talents even determine the rise and fall of an organization, a country and a nation. China has always attached importance to the cultivation of talents. In order to continuously strengthen and improve the moral education of college students, improve their moral quality, and train them to be qualified builders and reliable successors, the Chinese government has put the cultivation of college students and the reform of higher education on the important agenda. Carrying out college students' honesty education is one of the important decisions of our government to comprehensively analyze the international and domestic situation and cultivate the integrity consciousness of the whole people.
