Ramirez Honored by Massachusetts Trial Court

Professor Deborah Ramirez was honored for her impactful work and dedication to uplifting women by the Massachusetts Trial Court as part of the court’s third annual Women’s History Month celebration. Governor Maura Healey ’98 was also honored. In her remarks at the ceremony, Ramirez recounted her mother’s words to her many years ago: “Do not ever let anyone else define who you are or what you can do. Never give up on your dreams! You want to be a lawyer? Si se puede. Yes, you can.”
