Mary Stacy Beaman was a student at the college from the fall of 1934 to the spring of 1936. She served as a Student Officer and on the Board of Fellows. Mary wrote in her application to the college that she was interested in "music, persian art, early French, [and] psychology."

She focused on abnormal psychology for her senior examinations, but letters in her student file share that she did not show up for her final examinations. She took a Spinning class with Anni Albers in 1935 but dropped the class before the end of the semester.

Alternative name: Mary Lagercrantz
