Abstract: Combining the 17 cases of campus emergency in China recently, the paper systematically analyzes the characteristics of campus emergency caused by traditional and nontraditional security factors. The status and problems of campus emergency management are discussed from the viewpoint of nontraditional security based on a questionnaire, where the traditional emergency system for campus incident, i.e. “the school leadership in Party and government - counselor - student cadre”, has obviously lagged behind the need of reality. Lastly, the paper puts forward some advises, including that the school administrative office should improve the campus nontraditional security education on the platform of “Two Courses” teaching, the dispute-solving mechanisms should be built, etc.
