Xiamen University implemented a full tourist ban this year, which was scheduled to last from August 23 to September 13. The ban took effect at the university's Siming campus, and was scheduled to coincide with first-year students' military training.
During the tourist ban period, no tourists have been permitted to visit the campus. But some tourists have still tried to enter the campus grounds.
In a recent report, a female tourist who tried to climb over a steel wall to get into the campus broke her right leg. The accomplice who had tried to help her in the dangerous attempt ran away after an ambulance was called.

Starting on December 17, 2012, Xiamen University launched an effort to limit the numbers of tourists entering its campus. However, the daily highest number of tourists who visited the campus still reached more than 20,000, more than the total number of teachers and students in the campus, after the tourist ban was put into place.
