Jean McKelvey (February 9, 1908 January 5, 1998) was one of the founding faculty at
the New York State School of Industrial and Labor Relations at Cornell University
in 1946, the first female member of the National Academy of Arbitrators (NAA) in 1947,
the NAA's first female president in 1970, and an accomplished author of many works
on arbitration and other labor topics. The first fully endowed chair at the ILR School
was named the Jean McKelvey-Alice Grant Professorship of Labor-Management Relations.
A graduate of Wellesley College (AB '29, MA '31) and Radcliffe College (PhD '33),
McKelvey taught at Sarah Lawrence College from 1932 to 1945. She joined the newly-formed
New York State School of Industrial and Labor Relations in 1946 as the school's first
professor, reaching the rank of full professor in 1951. She became Professor Emerita
in 1976. In addition to developing the ILR School's fields of study with Maurice Neufeld,
teaching at the ILR School, and conducting scholarly research, McKelvey served on
the Region II National War Labor Board (1944-1945), New York State Board of Mediation
(1955-1966), the Federal Services Impasses Panel (1979-1990), and other boards and
panels.
Among her many honors and awards were the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service's
Special Award for Distinguished Service in Labor Management Relations (1973), Arbitrator
of the Year Award from the American Arbitration Association (1983), and Distinguished
Services Awards from Wellesley College (1975), the Society of Professionals in Dispute
Resolution (1989), and the Society of Federal Labor Relations Professionals (1990).
