Onlineresurser: This case study discusses qualitative fieldwork among ethnic minority university students in Malaysia. Active marginalisation is taking place in this country due to the enforced differential treatment of ethnic groups, favouring the ethnic Malay majority. In this context, students are forced to choose university education as a conscious means of social navigation. The trends in ethnic differentiation and higher education led to investigating how and why young Indians in Malaysia are using the university to pursue a life strategy.
