Based on extensive oral history and archival research, this sheds new light on the important role female staff and faculty at Purdue University played in improving the quality of life for rural women during the first half of the twentieth century. It is also a fascinating story, engagingly told, of two very different personalities united in a common goal.

Like pearls threaded one-by-one to form a necklace, five women successively nurtured students on the Purdue University campus in America's heartland from the 1930s to the 1990s. Individually, each became a legendary dean of women or dean of students. The Deans' Bible serves as a guidebook, brimming with stories of these courageous women who led by example and lived their convictions.
