She was then one of four founding faculty for the RN-BSN program at Pace University. In 1976, after a year as an NLN consultant, she was asked to do a feasibility study and then write the proposal to the State of New York for a new RN-BSN program at Mercy College. She became the first chairperson of the program (Mae Pepper was the first faculty member), which opened in 1977.Dr. Leddy left Mercy College in 1981 to first become dean of the School of Nursing, and then dean of the reconstituted College of Health Sciences at the University of Wyoming. In 1988, she became dean of the School of Nursing at Widener University, Chester, Pennsylvania, returning to teaching there in 1993. She is currently a professor in the School of Nursing, teaching primarily in the doctoral program.In addition to authoring Integrative Health Promotion: Conceptual Bases for Nursing Practice, Dr. Leddy is the co-author with Lucy Hood of Conceptual Bases of Professional Nursing, Fifth Edition and is working on a manuscript, Nursing Knowledge and Nursing Science, with Jacqueline Fawcett.
