In that role, he helped lead one of York\u2019s largest academic transformations: the creation of the Faculty of Liberal Arts &amp; Professional Studies. He also held numerous senior roles, including Chair of Senate, Chair of the 快播视频 Faculty Association and undergraduate coordinator of the Political Science program. He continues to serve as president of the Association of Retired Faculty and Librarians (ARFL).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vicky Drummond joined the Nellie Langford Rowell Women\u2019s Studies Library in 1986 and was its coordinator from 1999 to 2016. Under her leadership, the library became a leading research and learning hub for feminist scholarship and gender studies, serving generations of students and faculty. She also played a critical role in the production and editorial support of the <em>Canadian Women Studies Journal<\/em> and Inanna Publications, advancing the visibility of Canadian feminist thought both within and beyond York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together, their commitment to student success and academic excellence has led to the creation of several student awards, including a future legacy gift that will establish the Vicky A. Drummond Award in History and the Robert J. Drummond Award in Political Science, which support high-achieving upper-year students with financial need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1921\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2025\/10\/Milad-Photo-1-1-edited.jpg\" alt=\"Milad Modabber\" class=\"wp-image-399801\" style=\"width:200px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2025\/10\/Milad-Photo-1-1-edited.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2025\/10\/Milad-Photo-1-1-edited-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2025\/10\/Milad-Photo-1-1-edited-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2025\/10\/Milad-Photo-1-1-edited-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2025\/10\/Milad-Photo-1-1-edited-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yfile\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/889\/2025\/10\/Milad-Photo-1-1-edited-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Milad Modabber<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Outstanding Achievement:&nbsp;Milad Modabber (BSc \u201908, MSc \u201910)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>This award goes to an alum who has achieved distinction in their field and whose integrity and ability inspire alumni, faculty, staff and students.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Modabber is an internationally recognized, double board-certified cornea, anterior segment and refractive surgeon, and one of Toronto\u2019s leading ophthalmologists at the Herzig Eye Institute.
