General

Interview Summary: Donohue grew up in a small, ethnically Slovak community in Arkansas. She was inspired to come to St. Edward’s because of her peers. In addition, she also did not want to go to an all girls school, despite being urged to by her father. She describes her favorite memory as the day she met her husband during her freshman year. Donohue became a teacher ten years after graduating from St. Edward’s and taught for 25 years. She admired many of her professors and used what she had learned at St. Edward’s by teaching others.
