A highlight of the Conference was the presentation by student Luong Gia Huy, Captain of the Campus Civility Team, on the topic “The Role of Students in Building a Civilized Campus.” The presentation emphasized students’ roles in shaping campus culture-shifting from “compliance” to “co-creation” of the educational environment. Students were encouraged to undertake a “mindset revolution,” transforming compliance into self-discipline and pride. The three core roles identified were Self-disciplined Practitioners, Supervisors and Critical Thinkers, and Cultural Ambassadors, with the goal of making civilized conduct an instinct and fostering a modern, respectful learning environment.
