This article aims to understand why the members of the Teaching, Research and Extension Council (CEPE) of the Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV) have imposed a form of operationalization to the Ethnic-Racial Self-declaration Verification Commission (CVAER) of the institution, which, simultaneous and contradictorily, on the one hand, it
prevented some white students from fraudulently entering the ethnicracial
sub-quotas for black, brown, and indigenous students, which was
the goal of the commission, but on the other hand, it allowed dozens of white students to enter ethnic-racial sub-quotas spots. Relying on data and theory-driven arguments we presented the hypothesis that the
decision-making of the CEPE commission members was due to whiteness, that is, the white racial privilege of the CEPE advisors of the UFV.
