Education is a social activity to cultivate and bring up people. The emergence and development of education depends on a certain social demand, which is closely related to the development level of productivity and production relations in a certain society.

The social nature of education determines the basic policy of education and the training objectives of schools. China's Higher Education Law clearly stipulates: "Higher education must implement the national education policy, serve the socialist modernization, and combine with productive labor to make the educated become the builders and successors of the socialist cause with all-round development in morality, intelligence and physique."

We should fully implement the education policy, shoulder the heavy responsibility of training senior professionals for socialist modernization, and make college students grow into builders and successors of socialist cause.

Ideological and moral cultivation course is an important part of the ideological and political education system in colleges and universities. 1998, the new curriculum of "two courses" in colleges and universities jointly issued by Publicity Department of the Communist Party of China and the Ministry of Education clearly stipulates that ideological and moral cultivation is a compulsory course for college students, which embodies the essential characteristics of socialist universities and plays an irreplaceable role in cultivating builders and successors of socialist undertakings.
