Grace Konfederak found her path to school psychology through her experiences at Georgian Court University.

After studying psychology as an undergraduate, she participated in the Psychology Scholars Program and completed an internship shadowing a school psychologist, an experience that helped confirm her passion for the field and led her to continue her graduate education at GCU.

Grace also reflects on the close-knit GCU community, the support of her professors, and the connections she built through getting involved, including as a member of the GCU women’s soccer team.

Historic features across Georgian Court’s campus have recently been restored by Kingstone Restoration, including the Dolphin Fountain in the Sunken Garden, a marble bench in the Formal Garden, and the hand of the Blessed Virgin Mary statue, which was recently recovered.

The Dolphin Fountain, believed to have been acquired from a garden in southern France and dating to the 17th century, underwent structural repairs that restored its integrity and eliminated the risk of collapse. Its basin was also cleaned and repaired to ensure proper drainage, and water has been restored to the fish at the base of the fountain. The project was made possible in part through the generosity of a Georgian Court alumna.

During the restoration, a couple celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary returned to the fountain where they were married, adding another special connection to its history.

Meet Jaclyn Ciccone ’17, RDMS, RVT, a Georgian Court University alumna who has built a career in diagnostic medical sonography since graduating from Georgian Court.

Jaclyn earned her B.S. in Medical Imaging Sciences with a minor in Biology and has been a registered diagnostic medical sonographer since 2017. She chose ultrasound to combine her interests in science, anatomy, and technology while helping physicians diagnose and treat patients and making a difference in people's lives.

“I chose GCU because of the small class sizes and how welcomed I felt when I toured the campus,” Jaclyn shared.

Her favorite GCU memories include joining the dance club and spending time in Dr. Louise Wootton’s office with the kittens, a memory she continues to cherish. Her final year also included the joint Medical Imaging Sciences program with Rutgers.
