Through the "case-based discipline education" warning campaign, which involved analyzing typical cases and interpreting disciplinary regulations, the activities guided students to respect rules, maintain vigilance, and adhere to bottom lines. The roll-call meetings were chaired by Chen Zhichao, a part-time counselor for postgraduates in the school.
During the warning education session, Zhang Yongji, a full-time postgraduate counselor of the school of law, combined the Postgraduate Handbook, Central China Normal University the School of Law Student Leave Management Measures, and real cases to deliver an in-depth explanation across multiple dimensions, including academic integrity, daily management, and online behavior. For example, regarding academic misconduct, he cited a case where a postgraduate was deprived of the qualification to apply for a degree due to thesis plagiarism, emphasizing that academic research must strictly uphold the bottom line of integrity.
