On 18 June 2012 at Montreal's University Club, it was with great pride that the Faculty of Law presented two James A. Robb Awards to Me. Tina Hobday and Me. Marc Barbeau, who have both distinguished themselves at the Faculty and within the broader university community by their outstanding volunteer work.
