"Lendák-Kabók's study is very important, meticulously researched and analyzed with a  competent familiarity with relevant theoretical texts, while supported by an impressive bibliography. This book is a major contribution to research on gender and ethnic spaces in higher education, not only in Serbia. Its results can be easily applied to other similar multiethnic contexts in Central and Eastern Europe, but also beyond." (Agatha Schwartz, Hungarian Studies Review, Vol. 50 (1-2), November, 2023)
