In July 2019, Mahoney succeeded Leslie Wong, to serve as the 14th President of San Francisco State University and the first woman President. During her tenure was the COVID-19 pandemic, which forced a move towards online classes, budget shortfalls, and staff cuts.
In September 2020, SFSU faculty Rabab Abdulhadi and Tomomi Kinukawa were hosting a virtual class lecture on Zoom (software) by Leila Khaled, a Palestinian political activist with a militant history, when the Zoom canceled the broadcast due to the company's support of a pro-Zionism stance. The Leila Khaled event brought SFSU into a tense national news debate on the "boundaries and consequences of freedom of expression", and had Mahoney fielding questions about her support and/or lack of support for the Middle Eastern studies program.
In April 2023, Turning Point USA an American conservative non-profit organization student chapter at SFSU hosted a Riley Gaines event where she spoke against the participation of trans women in women's sports. After the event concluded, protesters arrived. Mahoney publicly spoke out against the Gaines event and negative effect on the LGBTQ campus community. Gaines claimed she was assaulted twice by a man after the event, and insisted that women need protection.
