Sumario:Córdoba’s University Reform of 1918 completes its one hundred years and its radiations can still be felt in the complex and disputed Brazilian university field, especially with regard to public institutions. Among the Reform proposals, the democratization of access to higher education is the highlight of this work. The present article aims to present the results of recente research on the Affirmative Action Policy implemented at the Federal University of Santa Catarina. In order to do so, it contextualizes the proposal of the Córdoba Reform to then conceptualize Affirmative Action and historicize the question and, in the sequence, show how the affirmative action policies were being constituted and being adopted in the Brazilian universities, particularly in the UFSC. Data analysis is based on documental and quantitative research, which allowed us to verify the access movement of black students after the implementation of the quota program in Brazilian universities. Finally, we present specific data obtained through research developed at the Master's and Doctoral level at the University itself, which show advances in the access of black students to the university, but also the limits to be known and remedied.
