She was installed as Smith’s new president in ceremonies on October 19, 2013. Smith College, located in Northampton, Massachusetts, is a liberal arts college and one of the Seven Sisters colleges.[1] BiographyMcCartney was born in Medford, Massachusetts. The first in her family to attend college, she graduated summa cum laude from Tufts University and earned her master’s and doctoral degrees in psychology from Yale University. McCartney came to Smith from the Harvard Graduate School of Education where she was dean—only the fifth woman dean in Harvard's history—and the Gerald S. Lesser Professor in Early Childhood Development. During her tenure at Harvard, the school introduced a three-year doctorate in educational leadership in collaboration with the Harvard Business School and Kennedy School of Government.[3] Prior teaching and research experience includes service as a tenured associate professor of psychology and family studies as well as director of the Child Study and Development Center at the University of New Hampshire.[4] Since assuming the Smith presidency, McCartney has launched important initiatives on college access and affordability, design thinking and the liberal arts, women in STEM and the capacities women need to succeed and lead. Under her leadership, Smith has engaged architectural designer Maya Lin to re-imagine its historic Neilson Library as in intellectual commons at the heart of the college campus. The expected completion date for the project is fall 2020.[5] Research and academic interestsMcCartney’s research has focused on early experience and development, particularly with respect to child care, early childhood education, and poverty. She has published more than 150 articles and book chapters on those topics and was the principal researcher for Child Care and Child Development, a 20-year study published in 2005 that examined whether early and extensive child care disrupted the mother-child relationship. She co-edited Experience and Development, The Blackwell Handbook of Early Childhood Development, and Best Practices in Developmental Research Methods.{{citation needed|date=September 2016}} In 1983, McCartney and Sandra Scarr published a developmental theory of gene-environment correlation.[6] McCartney is a thought leader on issues of gender, education and parenting and has written extensively on those topics, including essays and letters in The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Worth magazine, CNN.com, The Boston Globe and The Huffington Post. Among her numerous honors, McCartney is a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences,[7] the American Educational Research Association, the American Psychological Association, and the American Psychological Society. Awards and honorsA developmental psychologist, McCartney was the recipient in 2009 of the Distinguished Contribution Award from the Society for Research in Child Development. In 2011 The Boston Globe named her one of the 30 most innovative people in Massachusetts. In 2013, she received the Harvard College Women’s Professional Achievement Award, which honors an individual who has demonstrated exceptional leadership in her professional field.[8] In March 2015, she was elected to the Board of Directors of the American Council on Education (ACE).[9] The Boston Business Journal named her one of its 2016 Women of Influence, citing her extensive work on early childhood education.
