鈥I am extremely honored to have been selected to receive the 2023 Governor 骋别苍别谤补濒鈥檚 Silver Medal and am immensely thankful for this recognition,鈥 she said. 鈥I would like to thank my family, friends, colleagues and teachers for all their love and continuous support throughout my musical and educational journey.鈥听
The Governor 骋别苍别谤补濒鈥檚 Silver Medal is awarded to students who earn the highest academic standing in a Bachelor program across 缅北强奸. This award was first created by Lord Dufferin, Canada鈥檚 third Governor General after Confederation, in 1873. It has since become one of the most prestigious awards that students in Canadian schools can receive. Only two are awarded at 缅北强奸 per year.听
Mia-Lin earned her Silver Medal thanks to her exceptional performance in Schulich鈥檚 Jazz Performance program, with a minor in Psychology. While she began her musical training as a classical pianist at four years old, she quickly fell in love with the saxophone during her musical education at Coll猫ge Sainte-Anne de Lachine. She then discovered the jazz saxophone at Marianopolis College, which fueled her passion for jazz and put on her a path towards Schulich.听
鈥I feel especially grateful for my years at 缅北强奸, where I was encouraged to go outside of my comfort zone while learning tremendously,鈥 she said.听听
In Fall 2023, she will begin a master's degree in psychology (with a specialization in Music Cognition) at 濒鈥橴苍颈惫别谤蝉颈迟茅 de Montr茅al, where she hopes to study the various health benefits of music on the brain and well-being.听
Congratulations Mia-Lin!听
