This article presents part of a still ongoing research about the student publication Feupa. It was produced by the members of Student Federation From Porto Alegre - Feupa - during the 1940's. This research indicates that the print production of students was culturally related at that time. The topics discussed by this group in the publication are diverse, among them politics, literature, philosophy, science, theater, and problems related to the University of Porto Alegre, which became later the federal university of Rio Grande do Sul. Trough Feupa, it is possible to perceive implicit political idead and positions when choosing the topics, the illustrations, texts and images. The analysis of these publications allows the study of the cultural background involved. It also guides the research about the youth and the academic field and the student mobilizations.
