This text addresses a research that investigated how the access of students with disabilities in college education reverberates in the institution management practices with regard to the rights of this group. In this sense, we seek to understand the effects in programs and institutional policies related to inclusion of disabled students. We interviewed managers who have been working in four colleges located in the west of Santa Catarina: a federal, a state, a community and a private ones. By means of narrative interviews, empirical materialities were generated, later analyzed in the perspective of discourse analysis, under Foucaultian references. The study points out the effects of the normative discourses of inclusion on the subjectivation of the managers and their positioning about requirements. We realize that government inclusion policies, materialized in the evaluation instruments of the courses and institutions of higher education applied by the Ministry of Education, mobilize managers to invest in inclusion.
