What is integrity? What is the significance of integrity education in college students?

Corruption, first appeared in the great poet of the Warring States period Qu Yuan's "Chu Rhetoric - Invocation of the soul": "I am young and clear to clean Ruoxi, the body serves the righteousness of Er not foam." Wang Yi, a famous scholar of the Eastern Han Dynasty, commented in Chu Rhetoric - Chapter and Verse: "Not to be said to be clean, not to be tainted is said to be clean", that is to say, not to accept the gift of money and gifts from others, not to let their own innocence of character to be tainted, is clean.

Corruption education for college students is part of the national integrity education, its purpose is to cultivate college students' sense of integrity, improve the quality of college students, consciously resist corruption and report corruption, so that corruption has no place to hide. 1990s, Transparency International ① Italian branch investigated the causes of corruption in Italy and found that a fundamental reason for corruption is that the average citizen of the corrupt behavior tolerance. behavior. Many Italians still believe that corruption is only relevant to the public sector, politicians and businesses, but not to their own personal lives. In China, there are also many people who are indifferent to corruption. College students are the elite of society, is the pillar of society, therefore, the college students to clean education has a special significance. 1. is conducive to the promotion of the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation

College to college students to clean education, is to promote the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation effective way. The Chinese nation is a nation with excellent cultural traditions, which is recognized by the world, but also where we are proud of. The Chinese nation since ancient times has a good tradition of honoring integrity. Since ancient times, the Chinese people on the cultivation of talent and the selection of officials focus on the "clean" standard. Zhouli" said: "to listen to the six plans of the government, the rule of the group of officials. One day, the good Lian, two days Lian can, three days Lian Jing, four days Lian Zheng, five days Lian law, six days Lian discernment." Means that, although the examination of the size of the official's performance includes good, can, respect, positive, law, discernment and so on six aspects, but all to clean as the basis, are to reflect the basic spirit of "clean". In terms of the mechanism for the control of corruption, China, from ancient times to modern times, has always attached importance to the establishment of a system for the supervision of officials (most of the time known as the "imperial secretaries") and a rigorous system of selecting officials, that is to say, the imperial examination system. These traditions of institutional civilization are seldom understood by college students, especially those in science and engineering. Therefore, it is of great significance to educate college students about integrity, enhance their awareness of integrity, and cultivate their integrity for them to recognize and comprehend the excellent traditional culture of the Chinese nation, and to cultivate national self-esteem, national self-improvement and national dedication. Our ancestors created the results of the world's leading civilization, our contemporary college students should take up the sacred mission to make the Chinese nation stand in the world. There is a prerequisite here, that is, first of all, to establish a clean and fair society.2. It is the need to purify the social environment

A clean society includes not only the integrity of public officials, but also the integrity of other members of the society. In order to curb the corrupt motives of public officials, we have carried out integrity education or cadre education. However, there are some limitations in merely suppressing the motivation of public officials to become corrupt. Gung as public officials do not live in a vacuum, their ideology is to a large extent influenced by the general social environment. Certain public officials eventually embarked on the road of abuse of power, of course, there is its own ideological metamorphosis of the intrinsic reasons, but the temptations from the community, but also to lead to the important reasons for their degeneration. In many official corruption cases, we can clearly see that unhealthy social relations and other external factors have triggered and exacerbated the metamorphosis process of leading cadres' thinking. Corruption transactions usually exist on both the demand and supply sides, and the two often stimulate each other. Therefore, only by starting from both supply and demand at the same time, it is possible to fundamentally cut off the chain in which corrupt behavior occurs. Since there are both internal and external causes for the growth of corruption consciousness among public officials, it is not enough to effectively curb these corruption consciousnesses by merely carrying out integrity education for public officials without focusing on cleaning up the social environment. At the same time, only by establishing a relatively clean society can we establish a social atmosphere in the whole society in which it is shameful to be corrupt and honorable to be honest, and can we strengthen the immunity of the whole society. Colleges and universities are an important part of the social environment, college students are the main builders of a clean society in the future, in the college students to carry out clean education, especially significant. There is no clean society, clean politics, clean government will not be able to talk about.

3. The need to establish a system for punishing and preventing corruption

College students integrity education, is to establish and improve the education, system, supervision and the important task of punishing and preventing corruption system. Adhering to the policy of addressing both the symptoms and the root causes, comprehensive management, punishment and prevention, and focusing on prevention, and establishing a sound system of punishment and prevention of corruption that emphasizes education, system, and supervision is a major strategic decision made by the central government of China*** on the basis of summarizing the historical experience and scientifically judging the situation, and it also conforms to the situation of the global transformation of anti-corruption strategies. Transparency International believes that integrity education is crucial to the prevention of corruption, because no system, no matter how perfect, can completely prevent corruption. Prior to this, we were predominantly concerned with penalizing or combating corruption, and seldom thought of preventing such an incurable disease as corruption. This is just like the metaphor of the medical skills of the famous doctors in our history, the Bian Magpie Brothers. Bian Magpie was famous for his skill in healing the sick, but when King Wei Wen asked one of the brothers in his family who had the best medical skill, Bian Magpie replied, "Big brother is the best, second brother is the second best, and I am the worst." When King Wei Wen asked him why he was the most famous, Bian Magpie explained that his elder brother cured the disease before the onset of the disease. The general public did not know that he was able to eliminate the cause of the disease beforehand, so his fame could not be spread, and only the people in Bian Magpie's family knew about it; the second brother cured the disease at the time when the disease had just flared up. The general public thought that he could only treat minor ailments, so he was only famous in the village. The magpie cured the sick when they were in serious condition. What people generally saw was his major surgery such as threading needles and tubes through the meridians to bleed out the blood and applying medicines to the skin, so people thought that Bian Magpie's medical skills were the most skillful, and so his fame spread all over the country.

Heavy anti-corruption, to catch the major cases, as magpies cure, although it can produce a momentary sensation, but can not guarantee that the community long clean. The treatment of corruption this "incurable cancer" is a bit like the prevention of disease, to take preventive shots, in order to prevent the occurrence of major diseases, so as to ensure that a person's physical health. If you don't pay attention to the prevention of disease, wait until the disease occurs and then treatment, integrity education, is an important measure to prevent corruption. Then you have to pay a greater price. To college students in the **** Central promulgated the "Establishment of a sound system of education, system, supervision and the implementation of the system of punishment and prevention of corruption," the implementation of the Outline of the clear requirements, anti-corruption and clean education should be oriented to the whole society, the ideological education, disciplinary education, and social morality, vocational morality, family virtues education and legal education; to vigorously strengthen the construction of a clean culture, and actively promote the culture of cleanliness into the community, family, school, Enterprises and rural areas; we should make integrity education an important part of the ideological and moral education of young people, and cultivate young people's correct values and noble moral sentiments. Education is the source to eradicate the breeding ground of corruption, is an important measure to grasp the root of the problem, but also a long-term work, the effect of education often takes a long time to fully realize. Integrity education for college students is a fundamental project. One of the purposes is to make college students realize what is corruption and what is integrity, so that they can consciously resist corruption and report corruption. As they say in the West, "As long as 99% of the people in a ****some do not agree, even though one's views are well grounded in law, none of these behaviors will be considered corruption." (2) Transparency International's core work is to foster public attitudes that do not tolerate corruption, because today's youth will be tomorrow's leaders, and educating youth about integrity can help break the cycle of corruption. Strengthen integrity education for college students, from the key stage of life education and guidance for college students to correctly treat public **** interests, public **** resources, public **** relations, the symptoms and root causes, focusing on the root causes, is conducive to helping college students to become a constructive force in the fight against corruption, and to lay a firm social foundation for the system of punishing and preventing corruption, which emphasizes education, system and supervision. In order to implement the Implementation Outline, on July 1, 2005, the Ministry of Education issued the "Opinions on the Pilot Work of Integrity Education in Universities and Primary Schools", which requires that the integrity education in universities and elementary school should be comprehensively spread as soon as possible on the basis of the experience gained from the pilot project. Carrying out integrity education for college students is a new issue in front of the university.

Corruption-free education for the whole society (including corruption-free education for university students) also draws on the experience of Hong Kong in the fight against corruption. The work experience of the Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) shows that only with the support of the public can the fight against corruption be successful. The Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption adopts the "three-pronged" anti-corruption strategy of investigation, prevention and education, and the main task of the Community Relations Department under the ICAC is to publicize to the public the fight against corruption, promote civic awareness, cultivate the public's sense of social responsibility and good morals, and actively strive for public support. The ICAC particularly encourages the public to report corruption. Complaints made by members of the public will be handled by the 24-hour Reporting Center, which is staffed by experienced investigators. No matter how minor the nature of the complaint is, it will be included in the Morning Report for consideration by the Head of the Operations Department and Directorate officers to decide whether to initiate an investigation. The ICAC's pledged service standard is to respond to corruption reports within 48 hours, and all complaints are kept confidential, with leaks subject to legal action. According to statistics, when the ICAC was first established, only 30% of the signed reports received, but by the 1990s, 70% of the reports were already willing to disclose the information of the informants themselves because they trusted the ICAC, which shows that the people of Hong Kong are willing to do their best to maintain a clean and fair society. Hong Kong Independent Commission Against Corruption experience reveals us: we must establish a solid and lasting mass integrity mobilization and education system, through strict enforcement of the law to win the trust of the people, and ultimately to create a high integrity, anti-corruption social atmosphere. 4. is the need to build social harmony

People are the main body of a harmonious society, members of the community's moral self-discipline, social groups live in harmony with a good guide to the social climate, for the promotion of social harmony is very important. Social harmony is very important. However, corruption is a tumor of society, an important factor leading to social disharmony and instability, and the destruction of human nature. The consequences arising from corrupt behavior affect the harmonious relationship between the elements of the social organism, thus hindering the construction of a harmonious socialist society. Therefore, to build a harmonious society, it is necessary to insist on anti-corruption and cleanliness, and completely remove the tumors that hinder the harmonious development of society. The ultimate purpose of education lies in both the perfection and improvement of human nature and the development of society. The purpose of education determines that education has the unshirkable social responsibility to further promote anti-corruption and promote honesty and build a harmonious society.

The perfection of human nature should be the overall development of morality, intelligence, physical fitness and beauty, integrity is essentially a basic bottom line, is the basic requirements of human nature. Integrity education and moral education of college students into one, so that they set up a positive, healthy, upward ideal beliefs, the formation of correct values, to consolidate "fairness and justice, honesty and friendship" moral foundation, improve the quality of integrity and fairness and the ability to resist corruption, not only in line with the law of personal growth and the law of education, but also directly to build a harmonious society and to provide a good opportunity to build a harmonious society. And can directly build a harmonious society to provide human resources to improve human nature. Therefore, to strengthen the integrity of college students education, as the construction of a harmonious society of basic engineering, is an important mission we must shoulder.

The healthy growth of college students is an important foundation for building a harmonious society. Colleges and universities are a special organization, is to cultivate talent, delivery of talent, is the accumulation of talent, is the place where knowledge will gather. As far as the work of integrity education for college students is concerned, it is to guide students to establish a strong sense of social responsibility and integrity. Colleges and universities in the concept of education, the concept of development should take the initiative to build a harmonious society, to infiltrate this concept into the cultivation of college students, scientific research and social services, through integrity education to cultivate the sense of responsibility of college students; vigorously improve the overall quality of the students, so that the concept of the motherland, the concept of the people, the concept of fairness and justice, the concept of the collective firmly set up. Carry out integrity education for college students, inspire the moral consciousness of college students in practice, guide the majority of college students in real life to correctly understand and deal with the relationship between the individual and others, the individual and the collective, the individual and the community, for the formation of the social culture of honesty as honor and greed as a shame, the formation of solidarity and mutual help, equality and friendship, *** with the advance of new interpersonal relationships, and promote social stability and harmony, has a very important role. 5. 5. is the need to achieve the objectives of the university training

Talent for a country is the most valuable resource, is to maintain a country's comprehensive national strength and core competitiveness of the decisive factor, high-quality talent and even determine the rise and fall of an organization, a country, a nation. China has always attached great 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 become qualified builders and reliable successors, our government has put the cultivation of college students and the reform of higher education on the important agenda. To carry out integrity education for college students is our government comprehensive analysis of the international and domestic situation, in order to cultivate a sense of integrity of all the people made one of the important decisions.
