In Memoriam: Dr. Marvelle Colby

It is with great sadness that we report the passing of one of our most dedicated faculty members, Professor Emerita, Dr. Marvelle S. Colby.

Dr. Colby served Marymount Manhattan College for 21 years as a member of the Business Management and Accounting Division, during which time she also served as the Division Chair. 

In 2007 a number of Dr. Marvelle S. Colby’s former students, colleagues, faculty, and staff joined together to create the Dr. Marvelle S. Colby Endowed Scholarship Fund to ensure that her legacy will live on at the College for years to come.

Dr. Colby was a valued member of the Marymount Manhattan College community and today we mourn this loss and share our condolences with her family.
