Angie Klink talked about her book, The Dean’s Bible: Five Purdue Women and Their Quest for Equality, about the story of the fight for women’s equality at Purdue University. In her book, she tells the story of a Bible that was passed down to incoming deans of women studies at Purdue University since the early 1900s. The Bible was mostly kept a secret by the deans and was eventually turned in to Purdue University’s archives to be preserved.
