- Bio: Kaeti Herlihy Manning has been a member of our department both as a student and faculty member. She graduated from our program with honors & an Excellence in Philosophy award in 2005. Kaeti was accepted at the University of Albany’s Hindelang School of Criminal Justice as a graduate student in 2005. Kaeti was an early contributor to UAlbany’s Death Penalty Archive. She graduated with an MA in Criminal Justice in 2008. After beginning her teaching career at Tompkins-Cortland Community College in 2010, Kaeti longed to return to Social Philosophy and pursue her interests in justice reform and diversity, equity, & inclusion in education. She joined our faculty as a lecturer in 2016. Teaching Prejudice, Discrimination, & Morality inspired Kaeti to continue her studies at Binghamton University, where she researched the predictors of success for students of color at PWIs vs. HBCUs. Finding that positive faculty-student relationships were imperative at both institutions for ensuring student success, Kaeti continues to develop her talents in the classroom.
