Students who persevered during the pandemic to complete their degrees in a most unusual fashion will be celebrated this month during a virtual Convocation at Brandon University.
“What a year this has been, and we are extremely proud of everyone who was able to focus on their education in the face of so much tumult,” said BU President David Docherty.

The City of Brandon and the Brandon Downtown Development Corporation will initiate a new procurement process later this year with an updated plan for a major parcel of land in downtown Brandon.
The City of Brandon and Brandon Downtown Development Corporation (BDDC) started a process approximately a decade ago to assemble land at the corner of 10th Street and Princess Avenue with the goal of establishing a major mixed-use development in the heart of the downtown that brings people downtown to live, work and enjoy leisure time.
Brandon University students studying Buddhism have found a wide audience for some of their assignments this year — they’re being shared as blog posts on the website of the Canadian Journal of Buddhist Studies.
The assignments require students to choose a Buddhist doctrine, express it with a piece of art, and then write a critical reflection paper that elaborates on their artistic process and how their composition expresses their chosen doctrine, explains Dr. Alison Marshall, a religion professor at BU who is teaching the students in a second-year online asynchronous Buddhism course.
