Do rural ao acadêmico: a implantação do Campus Erechim e as transformações em seu espaço através das memórias de uma discente

Abstract

The present work intends to study the implantation of the Erechim campus of the Federal University of Fronteira Sul and the relation that such implantation has with the personal memories of the author, former resident of the same land now occupied by the university. Initially, the proposal is to build an analysis showing how the Federal University of Fronteira Sul materialized, built through the action of the Pro-University Movement, thus materializing access to public higher education in the Upper Uruguay region. So, in this project, I think of the university as an institution resulting from the struggle to implement it in the region. In a second step, using personal memory, I intend to combine this and history, using photographs of the place where the present campus is located, bringing with essence the personality through the eyes of an academic. The objective here is to think of ourselves as an agent and subject of our own history, since my own life is affected and resized from the establishment of the Erechim campus. This campus, which happens to be located in a place that I lived in the past.
