Abstract

MINGO, Araceli. "Come clear the blackboard!" Women in the university. Rev. educ. sup [online]. 2016, vol.45, n.178, pp.1-15. ISSN 0185-2760.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.resu.2016.03.001.

Notwithstanding the considerable numerical presence of women in higher education, discrimination against them is still common currency. The information obtained from focus groups with students attending three faculties of the National Autonomous University of México shows that female students face an environment in which multiple forms of contempt against women are expressed. Such an environment is the result of a binary and hierarchical understanding of the differences between men and women.

Keywords : Higher education; Students; Gender order; Women; Discrimination.
