Though Nav Brar's had a lifelong love for the stage, the Dramatic Arts (DART) graduate wasn’t sure where his academic path would lead when he first arrived at — that is, until he stepped into Wardrobe at the Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine & Performing Arts.

Now, Brar is forging ahead with purpose after earning his degree and being honoured with the 2026 Marilyn I. Walker School of Fine and Performing Arts Textile Award, which is given to a graduating student to further their apprenticeship or study in textiles 👏

“Nav has contributed so much to the theatre program through his beautiful costume designs and constructions,” said Visual Arts Professor Linda Carreiro, Associate Dean, Fine and Performing Arts and MIWSFPA Director. “He truly deserves this award, and I’m thrilled that he will be able to use it to continue honing his craft.”

Gradu-ATE 🔥

Robert Tremblay (BA ’26) could never really see himself playing shuffleboard in retirement.

Digging for pieces of lost history under the Sicilian sun and diving off the coast of Marzamemi in pursuit of ancient knowledge — that was more his speed.

Tremblay crossed the stage during Brock’s 119th Convocation on Wednesday, June 10, earning his degree in Classics and Archaeology with a minor in Medieval and Renaissance Studies.

During his studies at Brock, Tremblay undertook three European archaeological expeditions alongside faculty and researchers.

Tremblay completed 60 archaeological dives in the Central Mediterranean during an expedition to Marzamemi, Sicily, led by Professor Elizabeth Greene and colleagues from the United States and Italy. His work included underwater survey and the excavation of a ballast pile off-loaded by an ancient ship.
