Aside from her education while at the elementary, middle and high school level, she went on to graduate from The University of Akron and complete courses at Radcliffe and Harvard. I wanted to share her educational accomplishments because they led her to her long career as the secretary to the president of The University of Akron. She was the secretary to both Mark and Norm Auburn, totaling over 30 years of service.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile\" style=\"grid-template-columns:37% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.uakron.edu\/humansofua\/files\/2020\/12\/2020-12-03_10-43-26-1007x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-619\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<p>I also included in my Instagram posts many educational documents that she acquired throughout time in school.

She didn\u2019t spend much time at Radcliffe, but completed several semesters at Harvard. She was working through a series of courses that would allow her to graduate in a secretarial science related field. However, she was unable to afford to continue going, which is a common problem, especially back then, and that forced her to discontinue her courses there. That is when she returned to Akron, OH and became the secretary to the president. Caroline Pardee\u2019s career is what sparked my initial interest into her life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Ashleigh Bonina I chose to focus on Caroline Pardee\u2019s education in this week&#8217;s blog post and Instragram postings.
