“To say that Carroll County is privileged to have her is an understatement. If what she wanted was academic acclaim, there’s no question in my mind that she could have been successful at Hopkins, Yale or Harvard. But she saw a need, a very real need, and is very committed to our community.” Andrea Kirby Ormiston ’99, Dr. Ruby's best friend since 2nd grade
“I beat all odds stacked against a Black woman from Baltimore. Who would’ve known the freshman year version of me would have made it this far? I literally say my dreams became my reality.”
“I felt like I didn’t have just one faculty mentor – I felt like I had an entire department of faculty mentors. That doesn’t end in the classroom but extends to guiding you through your academic career and figuring out what your post-academic career might look like.”
