Stratton, Helen B. Schleman, M. Beverley Stone, Barbara I. Cook, and Betty M. Nelson opened new avenues for women and became conduits for change, fostering opportunities for all people. They were loved by students and revered by colleagues. The women were also respected throughout the United States as founding leaders of the Women's Reserve of the Coast Guard (SPARS), frontrunners in the National Association of Women Deans and Counselors, and as pivotal members of Presidential Committees in the Kennedy and Nixon administrations. While it is focused on changing attitudes on one college campus, The Deans' Bible opens a window onto cultural change in America as a whole, exploring how each of the Deans participated nationally in the quest for equality. The story rolls through the "picture-perfect," suppressive 1950s, the awakening sixties, women's liberation, Title IX, 1980s AIDS and alcohol, the changing mores for the disabled, and sails into the twenty-first century. As each woman succeeded the other forming a five-dean friendship, they knitted their bond with a secret symbol--a Bible. Originally possessed by Purdue's first part-time Dean of Women Carolyn Shoemaker, the Bible was handed down from dean to dean with favorite passages marked. The lowercase word "bible" is often used in connection with reference works or "guidebooks." The Deans' Bible is just that, brimming with stories of courageous women who led by example and lived their convictions"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000716544 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000716544 61020 $$aPurdue University$$xFaculty$$vBiography. 000716544 650_0 $$aWomen deans (Education)$$zUnited States$$vBiography. 000716544 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aKlink, Angie, 1959-$$tDean's bible : five purdue women and their quest for equality.$$dWest Lafayette, Indiana : Purdue University Press, [2014]$$z9781557536761$$w(DLC) 2013048869$$w(OCoLC)854609740 000716544 830_0 $$aFounders series. 000716544 8520_ $$bacq 000716544 85280 $$bebk$$hEbrary 000716544 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=3120944$$zOnline Access 000716544 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:716544$$pGLOBAL_SET 000716544 980__ $$aEBOOK 000716544 980__ $$aBIB 000716544 982__ $$aEbook 000716544 983__ $$aOnline
