Skin Deep Magazine: Spring 2002 marked the triumphant return of Skin Deep Magazine after a three-year absence as well as its establishment as an official college organization. Skin Deep Magazine was originally founded as a publication dedicated to fostering understanding and furthering dialogue concerning issues of racial diversity. Since its inception in 1993, Skin Deep has evolved to include a multitude of issues pertaining to identity, including but not limited to gender, sexuality, religion and class in addition to those of racial and/ or ethnic diversity. The members of Skin Deep wish to provide Middlebury College students, faculty/ staff and alumni with a safe forum in which to voice their concerns about issues of identity and diversity at Middlebury. We do so in hope that the experiences related within the pages of Skin Deep will engender discussion that will transcend the format, cultivating an atmosphere of sharing, and thus bringing a newfound awareness to the members of the Middlebury College community.
