Kathleen Feeley
Kathleen Feeley (born January 7, 1929) is a former president of the College of Notre Dame of Maryland.
Kathleen Feeley was born on January 7, 1929, in Baltimore, Maryland, one of seven children. Feeley graduated from the Notre Dame Preparatory School and joined the School Sisters of Notre Dame. She received a Bachelor of Arts in English from the College of Notre Dame of Maryland in 1962. Feeley then received a Master of Science in English from Villanova University in 1964 and a PhD in English from Rutgers University in 1970. She published her doctoral thesis at Rutgers in 1972, entitled Flannery O'Connor: Voice of the Peacock, about the author Flannery O'Connor who she saw speak at the College of Notre Dame. It would be published as a paperback in 1982.
Feeley was a fellow at the Institute for the Study of Change at Claremont University Center (now Claremont Graduate University). She was an American Council on Education intern in 1970/1971.
Feeley became president of the College of Notre Dame of Maryland on July 1, 1971. At the time, many Catholic colleges for women were merging with colleges for men or becoming coeducational. Feeley led the process to determine what the College of Notre Dame would do.
Under Feeley's leadership, the college allowed part-time students and started the second Weekend College in the nation in 1975. In 1984, the college began to offer graduate degrees. In 1989, she founded the Renaissance Institute at the college. She served as president for 21 years and retired in 1992.
In 1999, she returned to the College of Notre Dame as a professor of English.
In 1994, Feeley worked with the School Sisters of Notre Dame to raise money to renovate a building in Baltimore and found the Caroline Center, a religious institute focused on helping women with job readiness, skill training and support.
In 1995, Feeley was appointed by Baltimore mayor Kurt Schmoke to serve as Administrator for Special Education for Baltimore City Public Schools. A lawsuit had been filed against the city and her task was to bring the city in compliance with special education law. She formed a unique city and state educational partnership that is considered as a model across the United States. She remained in the role until 1997.
