He studied philosophy at the St. Ignatius Institute of the University of San Francisco, a Jesuit university in San Francisco, California.

While there, he sat on the governing board of the Associated Students Group.

In the Spring of 1990, after a student at the University of San Francisco School of Law, Laurie Moore, had won a challenge allowing her and others to distribute pro-choice literature on campus, Kenney stated to a CNN reporter that " The pro-choice group, which is politically activating to legalize abortion-on-demand on this campus, while using campus facilities, is essentially destroying the mission and the purpose of the university.

" Kenney and others later petitioned the archbishop of San Francisco to drop the word " Catholic " from the university's name, in an effort to pressure the institution to ban the pro-choice group from campus.
