摘要：This paper analyzes the process of federalization of the School of Physical Education of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul under the eyes of students who graduated in 1970 in the first group formed under the federal system of education. Based on the theoretical support of Cultural History, we reviewed issues related to political involvement of students in this process and aspects of the structure and functioning of the school as a whole. To this end, we resorted to Oral History, interviewing students and teachers of the period, and analyzed sources of various kinds such as documents, minutes of meetings, books, newspaper reports, photographs, and more. Based on the analysis, we noted that this class has experienced federalization in a very peculiar way: within the process, but to some extent, far away from it.
