From the Introduction:

[This] chapter of the Smith Day story, Gloves Off for Smith Day: 1983 to 2008, recounts the transformation of Smith Day over the last 25 years, driven by changes in women's lives and urban living in the ever-changing Twin Cities. But whatever the era, all these stories of Smith Day reflect the values of Smith College and its alumnae: dedication to women's education, service, inclusiveness, creativity, fellowship, and fun!
