This paper aims to expose and analyze how LGBT students in three public universities in Chiapas, Mexico, are carrying out forms of resistance in response to manifestations of violence and discrimination. The research was based on a qualitative methodology and analyzed through a grounded- theory strategy. We found that LGBT students are not passive victims of discrimination, but rather resist in various ways, making the university a space in dispute over heteropatriarchal norms.
