Barry was a women’s Catholic college. The construction of what was then the Barry College for Women began in 1940, in what had previously been “a tract of tropical vegetation.” The empty lot was soon transformed into the main campus, in Miami Shores, FL. The original campus consisted of five buildings. The college was named for Mother Mary Gerald Barry. She served as president from 1940-1961.
