The University of Delaware will be holding a memorial service for Barbara Curry, professor in the School of Education, on Sunday, Oct. 17, from 2-4 p.m., in the Gore Recital Hall of the Roselle Center for the Performing Arts.
Curry passed away on Sunday, Sept. 26, after a courageous fight with lung cancer.
“Barbara was a dedicated scholar with wide-ranging interests,” said Robert Hampel, interim director of the School of Education. “Her notion of educational leadership drew in creative ways from her deep knowledge of social work and the psychology of adult development.”
Curry taught graduate courses in the master’s and doctoral degree programs in educational leadership and since 2005, she was coordinator for the Ed.D. specialization in higher education. She was also an affiliated faculty member of the Department of Women’s Studies.
