Thinking on Students' Legal Education in Art Universities & Colleges

Cultivating college students' legal consciousness is conducive for college students to have respect and reverence on laws, and beneficial for them to better consciously abide by laws. In addition, it can facilitate them to apply legal consciousness to analyze their rights and obligations, and evaluate behavioral legality. Moreover, it is helpful for them to consciously maintain legitimate rights and interests applying legal weapons, resolve contradictions and disputes with legal measures, and initiatively boycott behaviors damaging law and social order. The public's belief on law is the important factor for evaluating state legalization. Legal belief is the progressive process from legal knowledge learning, to legal consciousness cultivation, and then to legal accomplishment fostering. Currently, lack of legal education atmosphere in art universities and colleges has become one prevalent phenomenon. Universities & colleges emphasize on the fostering of moral education, but neglect the cultivation of legal education. Moral education and legal education belong to the scope of social value education, but moral education highlights people's inner world, while legal education is aimed at standardizing people's behavior. Strengthening college students' legal education can effectively alleviate and prevent the occurrence of juvenile delinquency, and meanwhile improve their comprehensive quality, which is beneficial for them to rapidly adapt to society after graduation.
