UA Student Receives John F. Ramsey Award

University of Alabama student Logan Goulart has received the 2020 John F. Ramsey Award, which recognizes in a junior the versatility of gifts and attainments, as well as the breadth of excellence in mind and character, that have traditionally been the goals of a liberal education.

The combination of studying history and human rights has led Goulart to many interesting places. A member of the Blount Scholars Program and New College, he is passionate about understanding the ideas of equality and justice and how they have evolved.

Goulart's research interests include the intellectual history of 20th century sub-Saharan Africa, South African apartheid and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission that followed Nelson Mandela's election.

He plans to attend law school to work as a human rights attorney, before enrolling in graduate school to pursue a history degree.

He is involved in many organizations on campus, such as the Blackburn Institute, Student Government Association, the Million Dollar Band and Alabama Model United Nations.

Goulart is also an active cellist, performing regularly with the Huxford Symphony Orchestra.

His parents are his mother, Karen Duncan, stepmother Tracy Goulart and his late father Chris Goulart.
