The Annual Starlight Gala, hosted by the GSA, is an evening dedicated to celebrating the accomplishments and community of graduate students at Brock University.
On Saturday, April 1, 2023, Grad Students, Grad Alumni, Brock Administration, Dignitaries and Staff came together for the GSA’s signature graduate student event – the Starlight Gala! – with dinner, awards, prizes and entertainment. We gather to celebrate the present, recognize our past twenty years of operation as an association and look toward another incredible twenty years of engagement and representation of graduate students at Brock.
