In the seemingly pure academic halls of colleges and universities, one after another sexual harassment scandals linger like shadows.
The real-name report of Wang Di, a female doctor of the National People's Congress, was like a thunderbolt, cutting through the appearance of calm.
Her painful experience and her courageous struggle make us once again focus on the supposed sacred land of universities.
This is not only an individual tragedy, but also a torture of the entire education system.
When power is reduced to a tool of desire, when the halo of prestigious schools is tarnished by the ugliness of human nature, we can't help but ask: when will the haze of sexual harassment in colleges and universities dissipate?
How should we protect that Pure Land?
On the eve of the storm: the illusion of calm
In the eyes of most people, the Faculty of Liberal Arts of Renmin University is a temple of knowledge and a cradle for young talents to pursue their academic dreams.
Wang Di, a doctoral student with a literary dream, shuttles between ancient books and modern documents every day, and her life should be full of thirst for knowledge and longing for the future.
Beneath this calm, there is an unknown undercurrent.
Voices of Whistleblowing: The Awakening of the Brave
On July 21, a seemingly ordinary day, it became no longer ordinary because of a video report by Wang Di.
In the video, her face is firm, her eyes are both resolute and helpless, she uses her own personal experience to report her mentor, the former party secretary and vice president Wang Guiyuan, with her real name, accusing her of sexually harassing and forcibly molesting her for a long time.
"He (Wang Guiyuan) repeatedly used his studies and graduation qualifications as threats to ask me to have an improper relationship with him."
Wang Di's voice trembled slightly in front of the camera, but his tone revealed unquestionable firmness.
She described in detail how Wang Guiyuan took advantage of her power, from initial verbal provocation to later physical contact, and even made ridiculous demands that she recognize her as a "godfather".
These behaviors, for Wang Di, are not only physical violations, but also psychological blows.
The Power of Evidence: The Revelation of the Truth
To prove his allegations, Wang Di provided multiple video recordings as evidence.
In these recordings, Wang Guiyuan's voice is clearly recognizable, and his words are full of threats and temptations, which make people shudder.
Especially when Wang Guiyuan used his graduation qualifications as a bargaining chip to force Wang Di to submit, the naked sense of power oppression made people deeply indignant.
"If you're disobedient, don't want to graduate."
These cold words, like a sharp knife, pierced Wang Di's beautiful illusions about the future, and also made her realize that only by standing up can she defend her dignity and rights.
The plight of the victims: physical and mental torment
The road to reporting is a long and difficult battle for Wang Di.
The long-term mental pressure and physical pain, exfoliative cheilitis, made her suffer both physically and mentally.
In the dead of night, loneliness and fear followed, but she never gave up her determination to seek justice.
Faced with the dilemma of rejection and compromise, Wang Di chose the former.
She knows that this road is full of unknowns and risks, but she knows better that silence will only make the perpetrator more unscrupulous.
So, she mustered up the courage to make everything public, even if it meant that she would face pressure and accusations from all sides.
Deep Dive: The Shadow of Sexual Harassment in Colleges and Universities
Wang Di's experience is not unique.
It is like a mirror, reflecting the prevalence and seriousness of the problem of sexual harassment in colleges and universities.
Power inequality is at the root of the problem.
Under the tutor responsibility system, the tutor is often in control of the student's academic future and graduation qualifications, and this asymmetry of power makes some students have no choice but to remain silent or compromise when faced with the tutor's misconduct.
Loopholes in the regulatory mechanism are also a problem that cannot be ignored.
The actual implementation of the construction of teachers' ethics and style in colleges and universities is uneven, and some schools even harbor the phenomenon of perpetrators.
Coupled with the lack of reporting channels, students are often worried that the report will affect their studies and lives, so they choose to swallow their anger.
Solution: Build a safer academic environment
In response to these problems, we urgently need to build a more complete set of prevention and response mechanisms.
A dedicated reporting channel should be established to ensure that students' privacy is protected, while simplifying the reporting process and improving processing efficiency.
Cases that have been verified must be severely punished in order to set an example.
Strengthen the management and supervision of mentors.
Through regular teacher ethics training, improve the professional quality and moral level of instructors.
Establish a mentor evaluation mechanism, include the teacher's moral performance in the scope of assessment, and take timely measures to correct or remove the tutors who have problems.
Students' awareness of the protection of their rights and interests should be enhanced.
Schools should provide students with support services such as psychological counseling to help them get out of the psychological shadow.
Encourage students to speak up bravely so that the voice of justice is not drowned out.
Strengthen social supervision.
Colleges and universities should regularly publish the situation of the construction of teachers' ethics and teaching style, disclose the results of the handling of major cases, and accept the supervision and evaluation of all sectors of society.
Only in this way can we form a good atmosphere for the whole society to pay attention to and participate together, and contribute to the construction of a safer and healthier academic environment.
Social repercussions: Voices of justice converge into a river
As Wang Di's report continues to ferment, all sectors of society have expressed their views and attitudes.
Some netizens strongly supported the dismissal of Wang Guiyuan and the investigation of his criminal responsibility, believing that this is a proper attitude of zero tolerance for sexual harassment; Some netizens praised Wang Di's courage and perseverance, and called on the school to handle the matter openly and fairly.
Some netizens deeply reflected on the problems existing in the supervision mechanism of colleges and universities, and called for strengthening the system construction to fundamentally curb the occurrence of sexual harassment.
These voices converge into a powerful force, which not only provides a solid backing for Wang Di, but also lights a lamp of hope for all students who may suffer from unfair treatment.
They remind us that we should not abandon the pursuit of justice and the desire for justice, no matter what the circumstances.
Driven by public opinion, the issue of sexual harassment in colleges and universities is gradually coming to the fore and becoming the focus of common attention from all walks of life.
