MONGIM, Andrea Bayerl  y  OLIVEIRA, Osvaldo Martins de. BETWEEN COMMEMORATIONS, TENSIONS AND CONSTRAINTS: ENTERING THE UNIVERSITY BY THE QUOTA SYSTEM. Revista Teias [online]. 2019, vol.20, n.56, pp.133-152.  Epub 19-Dic-2019. ISSN 1982-0305.  https://doi.org/10.12957/teias.2019.39082.

This article aims to analyze the process of admission and staying in the university of quota students, evidencing challenges, tensions and constraints. This is an ethnographic study, with the use of interviews of life narratives. Admission to the university is a reason for commemoration for students who, in general, recognize the importance of the quota system for this purpose. However, in addition to financial difficulties, they coexist with episodes of stigmatization and discrimination. Some of the students seek to overcome such challenges through collective organization. Others, by personal sacrifice. Thus, as fundamental as ensuring the material conditions of permanence in the university, so is to invest in the fight against any form of discrimination.

Palabras clave : Quota system; University; Tensions and constraints.
