Carolyn Ray Boone Mahoney (born 1946) is an American mathematician who served as president of Lincoln University of Missouri.〔 Her research interests include combinatorics, graph theory, and matroids.〔
==Early Life and Education==
Carolyn Mahoney was born the sixth of thirteen children in 1946 in Memphis, Tennessee to Stephen and Myrtle Boone. Her grandmother cared for the children while her mother worked. Mahoney attended Catholic schools where she was encouraged in her interest in mathematics by the nuns. As a teenager, Mahoney's parents separated due to her father's drinking and gambling and the family was forced to move to a lower-class neighborhood. Mahoney and her siblings were known for being smart in their neighborhood. She graduated from Father Bertrand High School in 1964.
Mahoney attended Mount St. Scholastica College, a Catholic, all-female college in Kansas for three years before finishing her degree in mathematics at Siena College in Memphis, Tennessee. She then earned her master's degree in mathematics in 1972 and a doctorate in 1983, both from Ohio State University. Her doctorate involved matroid theory and enumerative combinatorics, and was supervised by Thomas Allan Dowling. Mahoney says she felt like a foreign student in graduate school because she was in a severe minority.〔 She was only the 25th black woman to earn a Ph.D. in mathematics in the U.S.〔(Carolyn Mahoney ), Ohio Women's Hall of Fame, retrieved 2015-02-21.〕
