Whether in colleges or government, when faced with reports, they have the responsibility to handle them according to the law. Only by not covering up, protecting shortcomings, or delaying can they win recognition.

Late at night on July 25, Shaanxi Normal University issued a report on the situation. After investigation, it was found that Wang had seriously violated the professional ethics of teachers, damaged the image of teachers, and caused adverse effects. His title of associate professor was revoked, his qualification as a graduate student supervisor was cancelled, his qualification to hold a teaching position at Shaanxi Normal University was revoked, and his employment relationship was terminated. At the same time, the relevant education administrative department was requested to revoke his teaching qualifications in accordance with the law.

Since Renmin University of China dealt with Professor Wang Guiyuan, similar incidents have been exposed in succession at Shandong University of Technology and Shaanxi Normal University. The two schools have basically followed the National People's Congress in handling the incident, that is, they have expelled the teachers involved from the university and reported the clues of the problem to the relevant authorities in accordance with the law. This "template-style" handling is very gratifying.

Responding quickly, investigating quickly, and handling quickly does not mean that one should not clean up the mess if he is too quick to do so. Rather, in the face of solid facts and under the "eyes" of public opinion, if we do not handle the matter, we will neither be able to give justice to the victims nor be able to give an explanation to the public.

Recently, a similar incident has attracted much attention. The secretary of the Wannian County Party Committee of Shangrao City, Mao, was reported by someone through the Internet under his real name for allegedly sexually assaulting a female subordinate. Li Changliu, the father of Li Peixia, the former secretary of the Party Committee of Shangfang Township, Wannian County, reported Mao under his real name, saying that his daughter was sexually assaulted by Mao. Yesterday, the Joint Investigation Team of the Shangrao Municipal Party Committee issued a notice stating that after noticing the online information about the report on the leader of the Wannian County Party Committee, Mao, the Municipal Party Committee attached great importance to it and immediately set up a joint investigation team to investigate and verify the situation. The investigation results will be announced to the public in a timely manner.

It should be said that this response was swift. Compared with the unethical behavior of college teachers, this incident has similarities, for example,All of them were from the upper level to the lower level, all of them were suspected of improper behavior towards subordinates (students), all of them attracted great attention from the public, and all of them seriously affected the image of the local area or the university. At the same time, the higher authorities or the school did not condone or turn a blind eye.

However, there are also obvious differences between the two: one happened in a university, the other in the government; one has relatively solid evidence, the other is more complicated and confusing. Although the father of the person who reported Mao also has a recording, the recording still needs to be authenticated. In addition, the specific reason why the father reported Mao also needs to be investigated.

According to The Paper, on May 26 this year, the person involved, Li Peixia, was taken away by the Wannian County Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision. Subsequently, the county commission for discipline inspection and supervision came to her home for a search. Before being taken away, Li Peixia left a USB flash drive for her family and told them that the USB flash drive could save her life.

Indeed, from the three recordings released by the father of the person involved in the report video, one of the recordings was a recording of Li Peixia and Mao's request for sexual intercourse when Li Peixia was reporting to Mao's office; the other two recordings were recordings of Mao calling Li Peixia twice and asking her to go to Mao's residence in the middle of the night to chat and drink tea. During the phone calls, Li Peixia repeatedly refused on the grounds of illness and said that she was afraid "I'm afraid you can't help it", but Mao kept saying "nothing". It is necessary to investigate when the recording took place. If Li Peixia had not been taken away, would the recording have never seen the light of day?

Of course, this matter is obviously different from the unethical behavior of college teachers.If the report made by Li Peixia's father is true - Li Peixia was sexually assaulted, then the perpetrator's behavior is not simply a moral violation, but is suspected of serious illegal crimes.In any case, the relevant departments should not miss any clues.

Whether in colleges and universities or in the officialdom, when faced with reports, everyone has the responsibility to handle them in accordance with the law. Only by not covering up, protecting others, or delaying can one win recognition.
