Women's Education and Leadership Digital Collection
These videos are part of the Women’s Education and Leadership Digital Collection at Rutgers. The project is a continuation of the work started by the documentary film “From the Boarding House to the Boardroom: 250 Years of Women at Rutgers”. In collaboration with the Margery Somers Foster Center and the Department of Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, the IWL strives to preserve and curate the materials collected as part of this documentary project, developing a digital platform accessible to the public.
