Some universities in China set up a rule that students are not allowed to display their affection in public. If students are found kissing or hugging on campus, they might be expelled from the college. Some education experts think that these regulations are somewhat ruthless. What is your opinion? Should we allow students to display their affection on campus? Write an essay of about 400 words. You should supply an appropriate title for your essay.

How Far Should Public Display of Affection Go?
On Valentine’s Day, one of the most romantic stories covered by newspapers usually takes place on campus. A couple is encircled by candles, which form a heart-shaped circle, and at the encouragement of the passers-by, they kiss and hug affectionately. However, this vivid display of affection is discouraged by some colleges, and the lovers might be expelled. In my view, we should allow students the freedom of public display of affection (PDA) in its mild forms, but not in its strong forms.
To begin with, displaying affection in an appropriate manner will contribute to the intensity and stability of the relationship. Public display of affection, by definition, entails mild forms and strong forms. Holding hands, hugging and brief kissing fall into the category of mild forms. If students choose to exhibit their love through mild forms of physical intimacy, as depicted above, I think university authorities should not restrict these behaviors. College students are adults, who have an acute sense and sensibility. As whether displaying affection in public remains an individual choice, there is no point making PDA "illegal" as long as it doesn’t make others embarrassed or uncomfortable. For example, a goodbye kiss is a way to show respect to the beloved one without seeming disrespectful to anyone else. Instead of totally banning PDA, the university authorities should lay emphasis on developing students’ appropriate attitude towards love, and raising their awareness of being considerate to others.
While I am in support of the mild forms of PDA, I am not suggesting that students can show off their love by taking some extreme forms of physical intimacy, which is better savored in private. Students may enjoy the romantic moment of displaying love and having others bear witness, but they really need to keep the strong forms of intimacy to themselves. For instance, in a school canteen, where many students are having their lunch, they will certainly be irritated by a couple who starts touching each other in a seductive way. Extreme physical contacts in public will only embarrass and disgust people. In this case, universities should educate students to pursue their emotions in a sensible way.
As John Keats, the famous English poet, put it, "Beauty is truth, truth beauty." When students feel like expressing their true love in an acceptable way, we should allow them to share this beautiful moment with others. But for other affectionate exhibition, universities should advise them to keep it to themselves.
