Pierre Fauchard Award Given to Jessica Bogucki DMD 12

In a ceremony in his office on May 6, Dean Jeffrey W. Hutter presented Jessica Bogucki DMD 12 with a scholarship from the Foundation of the Pierre Fauchard Academy. Bogucki’s parents, Terry McGuire and Chris Bogucki; Associate Dean for Academic Affairs Dr. Cataldo Leone; and Assistant Dean of Students Dr. Joseph Calabrese also attended.

The Foundation gives the award annually to students they deem to have made "extraordinary accomplishments and set fine examples for their peers, in school and beyond." Faculty nominated Bogucki for the award based on the dedication she has shown as a dental student.

Dr. Leone described Bogucki as a student “of quiet intensity.” During her time at GSDM she has excelled academically, clinically, in extracurricular activities, and in community service. She is the current President of the GSDM Chapter of the AAWD.

"Jessica is a very modest, but very accomplished student," said Dean Hutter. "When tasked with selecting a student to receive this prestigious award and scholarship, Jessica stood out among her peers as truly deserving of this honor.”
