The 1990s at Dartmouth ushered in a new age of student publications focused on gender identity, sexuality, race, class, and feminism. One such publication, Spare Rib, described by its editors as "a manifestation of all that Dartmouth women have accomplished, the challenges that face us now, and the victories we hope to gain in the coming years," dedicated Volume 4, No. 1 to celebrating the progress women have made at Dartmouth since the beginning of coeducation and the culture of women leadership on campus.
