"University" focuses on the important relationship between improving personal cultivation, cultivating good moral quality and governing the country and leveling the world. The central idea can be summarized as "cultivate one's morality for the people's security", with the theme of "be virtuous, be close to the people and stop at perfection" and eight items of "discipline, knowledge, honesty, cultivate one's morality, keep one's family in order, govern the country and level the world".

The outlook on life put forward by the university is inextricably linked with Confucianism, which is basically a further expansion of the Confucian outlook on life. This outlook on life requires paying attention to personal cultivation and embracing positive goals. This kind of cultivation and requirement is mainly based on Confucian morality.

The three cardinal guides and eight aims have class nature, and "virtue" and "supreme goodness" are the political requirements and ethical standards of feudalism for monarchs. Eight items, such as "discipline" and "knowledge", require the combination of political ideas and ethical thoughts in the three programs in terms of self-cultivation.

Universities also inherited Confucius' theory of benevolent governance and Mencius' theory of people-oriented. Rulers in universities pretend to be "elders" and "parents of the people", but in fact they still say this from the standpoint of exploiters. Their so-called "love for the people" and "non-violence" are just to maintain the economic foundation of their superstructure-productivity.

Only in this way can their unproductive and exploitative lives be consolidated.
