Cat abuse is not a private matter. Public dissemination of cat abuse videos is a public event that violates public order and good customs. If a clear and typical case can be formed, it will have great social significance.

Recently, it was reported on the Internet that a man who applied for a postgraduate degree in the School of Physics of Nanjing University was dismissed because he ranked first in the professional course. The reason is suspected that he failed in the ideological and moral assessment. close. Prior to this, many netizens posted on the Internet platform and reported to the school that the student had serious quality problems: he had recorded a video of torturing and killing cats in the school dormitory, and had also joined an online gang that took pleasure in torturing cats.

html On April 3, the relevant departments of Nanjing University responded that the information transmitted online was partly true. The school's official website has announced the reasons why he failed the assessment, "It is clearly written above. There are preliminary and re-examinations for the postgraduate entrance examination, and the school will consider it comprehensively." When asked by reporters whether they had considered the cat abuse incident, the staff responded: "These behaviors may be affected."

What are the "partially true" parts? The school did not explicitly admit that the boy's "failure in the re-examination" was related to cat abuse, but when faced with reporters' questions about the cat abuse, it did not clearly deny it. It can be seen from the online form that although the student has the first overall score, his interview score (retest score) is only 137.78. According to the admissions rules, the passing score for the interview is 150 points. Those who fail the interview will fail the re-examination.

According to media reports, the candidate tortured and killed a cat in the dormitory of his undergraduate school, and also recorded a video and uploaded it to the Internet. A leaked footage shows: He put a cow cat into a bucket, and then stepped on the cat's head with his foot... This may be why his cat abuse behavior is "well known" and has been reported by many netizens. But is this a consideration for failing the re-examination?

In the face of heated public opinion, schools can openly announce that their failure to pass the re-examination is just because they failed the interview or is related to cat abuse without involving the privacy of the candidates. Note to , cat abuse is not a private matter. Public dissemination of cat abuse videos is a public event that violates public order and good customs. If a clear typical case can be formed, it will have great social significance.

The School of Physics of Nanjing University uploaded a "2024 Master's Degree Re-examination Admission Rules" on the official website. It was specifically pointed out that according to the relevant regulations of the Ministry of Education, the school will organize an investigation and assessment of the ideological and political quality and moral character of the candidates during the re-examination. Those who fail the ideological and moral assessment will not be admitted.

does not mean you have a green light all the way if you have good grades. As some netizens said, it is good to have both good character and academics, but "good character" is still ranked first in learning. Compared with professional achievements, a sound personality and healthy values ​​​​are probably more important.

In 2010, a candidate ranked first in both written and comprehensive scores in the postgraduate entrance examination. However, because he took the exam for someone else in 2008, Lanzhou University was disqualified from admission because he "failed the ideological and political quality and moral assessment." The student took Lanzhou University to court, but the court dismissed his claim in accordance with the law.

It is common sense that adults should be responsible for their own actions. When you are alive, you always have to bear the consequences of your own making.

Of course, young candidates still have a long way to go in life. If they can really correct their mistakes and use practical actions to show a new self, there is no need to block all their "upward" paths. A healthy society can also tolerate people who have reformed. I hope that the heated discussion caused by this "failure" will be a profound lesson for the parties involved, and they will change their past mistakes instead of inspiring more bad emotions and extreme behaviors.
