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
