Georgetown Alumni

Twenty-eight Hoyas were sworn into the 119th U.S. Congress on Jan. 3, continuing Georgetown’s long legacy of producing leaders and public servants.

Hoyas in the 119th Congress include 21 representatives and 7 U.S. senators who represent 18 states and the District of Columbia and the U.S. Virgin Islands, which have non-voting delegates. They also include faculty and alumni from nearly all of Georgetown’s schools, including 12 faculty and alumni from Georgetown Law and nine alumni from the School of Foreign Service.

Psychotherapist Maris Pasquale Doran (C’03) and her sister-in-law, actress Phillipa Soo, co-authored Piper Chen Sings, a New York Times bestseller picture book.

Doran, who often read picture books to her sons when they were young and also uses stories in her psychotherapy practice, spent time discussing storytelling with Soo, which led to “this really beautiful marriage” of their values and skills, Doran says.

The Chinese-American main character is inspired in part by Soo—who says she connected with her grandmother through food, music, and the Mandarin language. She hopes others will recall similar experiences of bilingual families, intergenerational households, or simply having fun with grandparents.

Amid an ongoing national mental health crisis affecting children, adolescents, and families, Georgetown is launching the Thrive Center for Children, Families, and Communities, a multidisciplinary academic center focusing on child and family mental health, disabilities, health equity, and digital health.

The new center builds on the work of two long-standing Georgetown programs: the Center for Child and Human Development—focused on the areas of early childhood, disability, and equity—and the Division of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at MedStar Georgetown University Hospital, which provides clinical services and conducts clinical research and education in the areas of child, adolescent, and family mental health.

The center is a partnership between Georgetown University Medical Center and MedStar Health, made possible by a cohort of generous donors.

Patty (NHS’93) and Chris (B’93) Mosher (Parents’24) met as first-year students during a fire safety meeting in Gaston Hall. They filed into the same row along with their roommates and soon realized that they were both from Massachusetts. A quick friendship developed and eventually they started dating. The Moshers have been together ever since.

After reflecting on their years on the Hilltop, Patty and Chris realized how much Jesuit values have shaped their lives.

In gratitude to Georgetown University and its tenet cura personalis or “care for the whole person,” the Mosher family recently established the Nursing Student Resource Endowed Fund in the amount of $150,000 to provide immediate financial assistance to undergraduate nursing students who have an emergency and critical financial need. The Fund helps ensure that students can continue with their nursing education despite a financial setback.
