A member of the American Philosophical Association, Sheridan also had expertise in mathematics and was an avid chess player.

He earned a bachelor's degree from Holy Cross in 1957; master's degrees from Ohio State University and the University of California, Los Angeles in 1959 and 1963, respectively; and a doctoral degree from UCLA in 1966.
