Adhere to the party's cultural leadership. ** Cultural ideology provides a fundamental guide to follow and act for doing a good job in propaganda, ideology and culture, and also puts forward new and higher requirements. As an important front for propaganda, ideological and cultural work, colleges and universities must uphold the party's overall leadership over propaganda, ideological and cultural work, adhere to the correct political orientation, stand firm in their political stance, guard the main front of propaganda, ideology and culture, strengthen the construction of philosophical and social science classrooms, teaching materials, forums, lectures, associations, and other positions, unremittingly use the party's innovative theories to forge their souls and infiltrate students, and constantly develop a national, scientific, and popular socialist culture that is oriented to modernization, the world, and the future.

3.Continue to enhance the cultural self-confidence of young people in the new era.
Cultural self-confidence is a more basic, broader and deeper self-confidence, and it is the most basic, deepest and most lasting force in the development of a country and a nation. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the general secretary has placed cultural self-confidence at an unprecedented height, cultivated the spiritual strength of the whole nation, and gathered strength for the great cause of rejuvenation. **During his inspection at Tsinghua University, the general secretary emphasized that "consciously use the excellent traditional Chinese culture, revolutionary culture, and advanced socialist culture to cast the soul, enlighten the mind, strengthen moral cultivation, distinguish between right and wrong, enhance self-determination, and be determined to pursue a more high-level, more realm, and more tasteful life."

Carry forward the revolutionary culture. The revolutionary culture nurtured in the great struggle of the party and the people is a condensation of the great course and great achievements of the Chinese revolution and the precious wealth of the party and the country. Colleges and universities should fully understand and deeply explore the importance of revolutionary culture, carry forward the spiritual lineage of the Chinese Communists with the great spirit of party building as the source, make good use of red resources, deepen patriotism, collectivism and socialist education, and strive to cultivate new people of the era who will take on the great task of national rejuvenation. Keeping in mind the history of the revolution, we will continue to deepen education on the history of the Party, the history of New China, the history of reform and opening up, the history of socialist development, and the history of the development of the Chinese nation, promote the normalization and institutionalization of education on ideals and beliefs, continue the red bloodline, inherit the red gene, stimulate patriotic enthusiasm, provide rich nourishment and strong support for the growth and success of the majority of young people, guide young people to establish a firm ideal of permanent struggle and sincere dedication for the motherland and the people, and contribute youth strength to the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Campus culture is a necessary support and important guarantee for colleges and universities to educate and cultivate talents. Colleges and universities should make full use of comprehensive elements such as campus environment, campus activities, campus media, and campus landscape, and build unique campus cultural landscapes, museums, and cultural products through the construction of "university humanities laboratories", and carry out a variety of cultural activities to further enhance the effectiveness of campus cultural education. Combined with the history and humanistic heritage of colleges and universities, it cultivates students' sentiments and cultivates students' conduct in a subtle way, and infiltrates, infects, and leads young people with excellent campus culture, so as to continuously enhance the cultural self-confidence of young students and form cultural consciousness.
