Abstract

This paper shows some of the challenges faced by university professors, who are increasingly subjected to work with the individual differences in Higher Education institutions. The starting point for this research are the programs used to access Higher Education, developed by a group of Community Universities in southern Brazil. A theoretical perspective that considers language as constitutive, not just representational, is adopted, thus knowledge and people are built. The methodology used was documentary analysis. It has been argued that only access programs are not enough to guarantee the students permanence in the Universities. It is intended to show with the analyze that, by narrating about these students, we do not see them like problems, but we consider them possibilities, thus it is probable thatother forms of experiencing inclusion in the University and other students are going to be produced.
