BRIAN TAMBLYN HONOURED WITH LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD BRIAN TAMBLYN President Emeritus of Georgian College Brian Tamblyn, President Emeritus of Georgian, was honoured last fall with the Ontario Minister of Training, Colleges and Universities' annual Lifetime Achievement Award for his outstanding contribution to the province's college system. Brian's commitment to Georgian spanned 30 years of service. He oversaw exponential growth during his 13-year tenure as president in which enrolment grew by 73 per cent to reach nearly 11,000 full-time students, and the number of academic programs also doubled. Former Minister of Training, Colleges and Universities Brad Duguid praised Brian for his contributions not only to Georgian but to the whole province of Ontario. "Mr. Tamblyn's commitment to our province's postsecondary education system has helped ensure Ontario has the skilled workers it needs to succeed in the 21st century economy. I am honoured to present him with this award for his exceptional vision and leadership," said Duguid.
