I had the privilege of being in her history class the first year she taught at Stonehill. Very well regarded. Rest in Peace Dr Carrigg.

I was also a student of Dr. Carrigg many years ago at Stonehill. She taught a class on Irish history that was more than interesting! She was a wonderful professor and a lovely lady.
