Perhaps that was simply the culture throughout the department; the Battle Studies students were a wild bunch, too.
When they saw the dean, they neither called her "teacher" nor addressed her by her title. It was always "Sis Lin" or "Sis Qunzhi."
The dean's name is Lin Qunzhi? Could she be related to Lin Lange?
But assuming they were related just because they shared a surname was a bit of a leap. Lin was a fairly common surname in Donghuang.
