Biography

Alice Dugged was born in New London, Indiana, in 1859.[1] Her parents were John Richard Dugged and Josie A. (Gilliam) Dugged and she had two siblings.[2]

She was educated in public schools in Marshall, Michigan, and graduated Wilberforce University in 1881.[2] She began her teaching career in the public schools of Kansas in 1882. She became assistant principal at Lincoln High School, Kansas City, Missouri, in 1884,[3] and the following year she married the Rev. Jefferson Alexander Carey Jr, a minister of the A.M.E. Church.[4] They moved to Atlanta, Georgia, where she accepted an appointment in 1886 as the second principal of Morris Brown College.[5] In 1887 she was the first principal of the Mitchell Street School, a position she held concurrently with her university role.

In 1921 she was appointed the first librarian of the Auburn Carnegie Library in Atlanta,[6] the first library in the city accessible to African Americans under segregation.[2] She also established the second branch of the Zeta Phi Beta sorority in that year.[7] Cary was politically active, serving as the Georgia State Chairman of the Colored Woman's Committee, and as president of the Georgia State Federation of Coloured Women.

She died in Atlanta, Georgia, in 1941 and was buried at South-View Cemetery.[1]

gollark: https://osmarks.tk/stuff has a lot of files in it, for example, but you can't tell what or how many without bruteforcing it or having me check on the server itself.
gollark: You could just not tell people the URL and have directory indexes off.
gollark: Anyway, the problem with this whole "make it so you can't read the code" thing is that that ends up being security through obscurity, which is doomed to fail through reverse engineering or someone finding the code.
gollark: PotatOS does that with thousands of lines of code and it's barely reliable.
