R. ROY MCMURTRY, Q.C. L’HONORABLE R. ROY MCMURTRY, C.R. The Honourable Roy McMurtry, former Ontario Chief Justice and Attorney General and Canadian High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, is the 12th chancellor of York University. L’honorable Roy McMurtry, ancien juge en chef et procureur général de l’Ontario et haut-commissaire du Canada au Royaume-Uni, est le douzième chancelier de l’Université York. Born in Toronto, Mr. McMurtry is a graduate of Osgoode Hall Law School and was called to the Ontario Bar in 1958. After practising as a trial lawyer for 17 years, he was elected to the Ontario legislature in 1975, where he was immediately appointed Attorney General by then-Premier William Davis. As Attorney General, Mr. McMurtry argued major constitutional cases in the Supreme Court of Canada and played a key role in the negotiations leading to the patriation of the Constitution with an entrenched Charter of Rights in 1982. Mr. McMurtry left office in 1985 to become Canada’s High Commissioner to the United Kingdom. In 1991 he was appointed Associate Chief Justice of the Superior Court and then Chief Justice of that Court in 1994. In 1996, he was appointed Chief Justice of Ontario, a capacity in which he served for over 11 years until May 2007. He then joined Gowlings’ Advocacy Department where he continues to serve as counsel to the Firm. Né à Toronto, M. McMurtry est diplômé de l’école de droit Osgoode Hall et a été admis au Barreau de l’Ontario en 1958. Après avoir exercé comme avocat plaidant, il a été élu à l’Assemblée législative en 1975, où il a immédiatement été nommé procureur général par William Davis, alors premier ministre de l’Ontario. À titre de procureur général, M. McMurtry a débattu des questions d’ordre constitutionnel importantes à la Cour suprême du Canada et a joué un rôle clé dans les négociations ayant mené au rapatriement de la Constitution incluant une chartre des droits en 1982. M. McMurtry a abandonné le poste en 1985 pour devenir hautcommissaire du Canada au Royaume-Uni. En 1991, il a été nommé juge en chef adjoint de la Cour suprême, puis juge en chef de cette cour en 1994. En 1996, il a été nommé juge en chef de l’Ontario, un poste qu’il a assumé pendant plus onze ans, soit jusqu’en mai 2007. Il s’est ensuite joint au service des litiges de Gowling où il a poursuivi son travail en qualité d’avocat. Mr. McMurtry is the founder and president of The Osgoode Society, a body established in 1979 for the writing of Canadian legal history which to date has published 84 books and 80,000 pages of oral history. In 2007, his significant contributions to the legal profession were recognized with Osgoode Hall Law School’s Award of Excellence (The Robinette Medal) and the President of the Canadian Bar Association’s Award of Merit. He also received an honorary degree from York University in 1991. He was invested in the Order of Ontario in January 2008 and was appointed an Officer of the Order of Canada in 2009. 4 / October 2012 Convocation M. McMurtry est le fondateur et président de la Osgoode Society, un organisme établi en 1979 pour écrire l’histoire du droit canadien et qui a, à ce jour, publié 84 livres et 80 000 pages d’histoire orale. En 2007, ses précieuses contributions au domaine du droit ont été reconnues par le prix d’excellence de l’école de droit Osgoode Hall (la médaille Robinette) et le prix du président de l’Association du Barreau canadien. Il a également reçu un grade honorifique de l’Université York en 1991 et a été récipiendaire de l’Ordre de l’Ontario en janvier 2008, et a été nommé officier de l’Ordre du Canada en 2009. PRESIDENT AND VICE-CHANCELLOR DR. MAMDOUH SHOUKRI PRÉSIDENT ET VICE-CHANCELIER DR MAMDOUH SHOUKRI Mamdouh Shoukri, BSc, MEng, PhD, was appointed the seventh President and Vice-Chancellor of York University on July 1, 2007. Mamdouh Shoukri, B.Sc., M.Ing., Ph.D., a été nommé le septième président et vice-chancelier de l’Université York, le 1er juillet 2007. Dr. Shoukri began his career in academia at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, where he joined the faculty in 1984. In 1990, he was appointed Chair of the Mechanical Engineering Department and eventually became Dean of the Faculty of Engineering from 1994-2001. During his term as Dean, the Engineering Faculty enjoyed significant growth, which paved the way for McMaster to become one of the leading engineering schools in Canada. Dr. Shoukri then went on to serve as Vice-President Research and International Affairs. Under his leadership, McMaster was designated Research University of the Year in 2004 by Research Infosource Inc. He was also responsible for creating and implementing the vision for the McMaster Innovation Park (MIP), by building partnerships with the provincial and federal governments, the City of Hamilton, the community and local industry. The MIP has proven to be a major innovation hub and a catalyst for the region’s economic recovery. Le Dr Shoukri a commencé sa carrière universitaire à l’Université McMaster à Hamilton, en Ontario, en 1984, en qualité de professeur. En 1990, il a été nommé président du département de génie mécanique, puis il a été doyen de la faculté de génie de 1994 à 2001. Pendant qu’il était doyen, la faculté de génie a connu une expansion considérable, ce qui a permis à l’Université McMaster de devenir une des principales écoles de génie du Canada. Le Dr Shoukri a ensuite assumé le poste de vice-président, recherche et affaires internationales. Sous son leadership, l’Université McMaster a été désignée l’Université de recherche de l’année en 2004 par Research Infosource Inc. Il a également eu pour mission d’élaborer et de concrétiser la vision du McMaster Innovation Park (MIP), en établissant des partenariats avec le gouvernement provincial, le gouvernement fédéral, la Ville de Hamilton, la collectivité et l’industrie locale. Le MIP s’est avéré un centre d’innovation de premier plan et un cataclysme pour la reprise économique de la région.

In addition to his roles at York, Dr. Shoukri is a member of the Board of Directors of the Canadian Merit Scholarship Foundation (CMSF) and Cancer Care Ontario (CCO). He is also Chair of the Government and Community Relations Committee for the Council of Ontario Universities (COU), and a member of the Standing Advisory Committee on the Act and By-Laws for the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada (AUCC). He has served on the Ontario Government Advisory Committee for the Centres of Excellence and on the Board of Directors for two Ontario Centres: Materials and Manufacturing Ontario, and Communications and Information Technology Ontario. Additionally, he was a member of the Ontario Research and Innovation Council (ORIC) – a council appointed by the Premier of Ontario in July 2006, with a mandate to advise the government on its innovation strategy in order to keep the province’s economy strong. He is a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering and the Canadian Society for Mechanical Engineering. His professional memberships include the Association of Professional Engineers of Ontario, the Canadian Nuclear Society and the American Society of Mechanical Engineers. Dr. Shoukri’s scholarly interests are in thermo-fluid science, and he is the author or co-author of more than 120 papers that have appeared in refereed journals and symposia.

Outre les rôles qu’il assume à l’Université York, le Dr Shoukri est membre du conseil d’administration des Fondation canadienne des bourses de mérite (FCBM) et d’Action Cancer Ontario (ACO). Il est aussi président du comité des relations gouvernementales et communautaires du Conseil des universités de l’Ontario (CUO), et membre du comité consultatif permanent sur la loi et les règlements de l’Association des universités et collèges du Canada (AUCC). Il a siégé au conseil consultatif du gouvernement de l’Ontario pour les Centres d’excellence de l’Ontario et au comité d’administration de deux centres ontariens : Matériaux et fabrication Ontario; et Communications et Technologie de l’information Ontario. Il a également été membre du Conseil ontarien de la recherche et de l’innovation (CORI), un conseil établi par le premier ministre de l’Ontario en juillet 2006 en vue de conseiller le gouvernement sur sa stratégie d’innovation visant à maintenir la vigueur de l’économie ontarienne. Le Dr Shoukri est membre de l’Académie canadienne du génie et de la Société canadienne de génie mécanique.

Fondée en mars 1959, date à laquelle le Parlement de l’Ontario a approuvé sa charte, l’Université York a ouvert sa première classe avec soixante-dix-sept étudiants en 1960. York was originally established as an affiliate of the University of Toronto, but became independent by mutual consent in October 1965. York University moved from Falconer Hall (on Queen’s Park Crescent near the Ontario Legislature) to the Glendon campus in 1961 and each succeeding year has seen a major advance in growth. York, qui était au départ affiliée à l’Université de Toronto, a pris son indépendance par consentement mutuel en Octobre 1965. Elle a quitté Falconer Hall (Queen’s Park Crescent à côté de l’Assemblée législative de l’Ontario) pour le campus de Glendon en 1961, et a franchi chaque année une nouvelle étape décisive. In 1962, the Joseph E. Atkinson College first offered degree courses for evening and part-time students. In 1963, the Faculty of Arts and Science introduced its own distinctive program of degree studies and the Faculty of Graduate Studies was established. The University accepted its first postgraduate students in 1964. En 1962, le Collège Joseph E. Atkinson a offert aux étudiants à temps partiel les premiers cours du soir menant à l’obtention d’un grade. En 1963, la Faculté des arts et des sciences a créé à son tour des programmes d’études sanctionnés par l’octroi d’un grade et la Faculté des études supérieures a été fondée. Les premiers programmes d’études supérieures ont été offerts en 1964. The Keele campus, which became the principal seat of the University, was opened at Keele Street and Steeles Avenue in 1965. In the following year, Glendon College was officially opened and the Faculty of Administrative Studies (now the Schulich School of Business) was established at the Keele campus. In 1967, the Senate enacted legislation to establish a Faculty of Fine Arts. In 1968, the Faculty of Environmental Studies was established and the Osgoode Hall Law School became the Faculty of Law of the University (under the terms of an agreement which had been entered into with the Law Society of Upper Canada in 1965). A Faculty of Science was created in 1969 by separating biology, chemistry and physics from the Faculty of Arts and Science, which then became the Faculty of Arts. In 1971, the Senate approved the establishment of the Faculty of Education. In 2000, Joseph E. Atkinson College was renamed the Joseph E. Atkinson Faculty of Liberal and Professional Studies. In 1990, the Faculty of Science was renamed the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science and subsequently, in 2004, became the Faculty of Science and Engineering. In 2006, the Faculty of Health was approved which brought together Nursing, Health Policy and Management, Kinesiology and Health Science, and Psychology. In 2009, York University continued this tradition with the launch of the Faculty of Liberal Arts and Professional Studies, combining the strengths of the Joseph E. Atkinson Faculty of Liberal and Professional Studies and the Faculty of Arts. In May 2012, York University’s Senate approved the establishment of a new Faculty, renamed the Lassonde School of Engineering. The non-Faculty colleges appeared annually after 1964: Founders (1965), Vanier (1966), Winters (1967), McLaughlin (1968), Stong (1969), Calumet (1970), Norman Bethune (1971) and New (2009). York University now graduates approximately 10,000 students annually. Devenu depuis le siège principal de l’Université, le campus de York, au croisement de la rue Keele et de l’avenue Steeles, a été inauguré en 1965. L’année suivante a vu l’ouverture officielle du Collège universitaire Glendon et la création de la Faculté d’administration (maintenant l’École Schulich des hautes études commerciales) sur le campus de York. En 1967, le Sénat a décidé la création de la Faculté des beaux-arts. En 1968, la Faculté des études environnementales a été créée et l’École de droit Osgoode Hall est devenue la Faculté de droit de l’Université (aux termes d’un accord passé avec la Société de droit du Haut Canada en 1965). En 1969, la Faculté des sciences et des arts s’est scindée en Faculté des sciences, chargée de l’enseignement de la biologie, de la chimie et de la physique, et en Faculté des arts. En 1971, le Sénat a approuvé la création de la Faculté des sciences de l’éducation. En 2000, le Collège Joseph E. Atkinson a pris le nom de Faculté des études libérales et professionnelles Joseph E. Atkinson. En 1990, la Faculté de sciences a pris le nom de Faculté des sciences pures et appliquées et par la suite, en 2004 devint la Faculté des sciences et de l’ingénierie. La faculté de la santé, approuvée en 2006, regroupe les programmes de soins infirmiers, de politique et administration de la santé, de kinésiologie et sciences de la santé et de psychologie. En 2009, l’Université York a perpétué sa tradition en créant la Faculté des arts libéraux et études professionnelles qui combine les atouts de la Faculté des études libérales et professionnelles Joseph E. Atkinson et de la Faculté des arts. En mai 2012, le sénat de l’Université York a approuvé l’établissement d’une nouvelle faculté, renommée l’École de génie Lassonde. Enfin, les Collèges qui ne sont pas des Facultés ont fait leur apparition à un rythme annuel après 1964 : Founders (1965), Vanier (1966), Winters (1967), McLaughlin (1968), Stong (1969), Calumet (1970), Norman Bethune (1971) et New (2009). L’Université York décerne des diplômes à environ dix mille étudiants par an. October 2012 Convocation / 7 THE MACE The mace, which the University Beadle carries, was a gift to York University from the City of Toronto in 1964. Each part of the mace has symbolic significance for the University. Rendered in brass, the end section is set with stones of cullet, bloodstone, agate and amazonite which represent all ethnic sources of Canada. The shoulder has 10 projections representing Canada’s provinces. The four arms at the head of the mace represent the paths which lead to the ideals that humans strive to achieve. The arms support an orb whose shape reflects the universe and its truths. The orb is executed in the colours of earth and water: brown, ochre, blue and green. LA MASSE D’ARMES La masse que porte le massier de l’université a été offerte en 1964 par la ville de Toronto à l’Université York. Chaque partie de la masse a une signification symbolique pour l’université. La masse est en laiton et sa partie inférieure est sertie de pierres taillées : hématite, agate et amazonite, qui représentent toutes les origines ethniques du Canada. Les dix projections de la partie supérieure représentent les dix provinces du Canada. Les quatre bras, au sommet de la masse, représentent les sentiers de la connaissance et des idéaux que s’efforce de suivre l’humanité. Les bras soutiennent une sphère représentant l’univers et ses vérités. Le globe a les couleurs de la terre et de l’eau : le brun, l’ocre, le bleu et le vert. 8 / October 2012 Convocation THE COAT OF ARMS OF YORK UNIVERSITY The upper half of the shield contains two lions of the City of York; the lower half contains, on a red background, the white rose of the Royal House of York. The oak sprig in the crest represents the Tree of Learning and recognizes York University’s initial affiliation with the University of Toronto. The York University colours are crimson and white. ARMOIRIES DE L’UNIVERSITÉ YORK La moitié supérieure de l’écu porte les deux lions de la ville de York; dans la moitié inférieure figure, sur fond rouge, la rose blanche de la Maison royale de York. La branche de chêne du timbre, qui représente l’Arbre de la Connaissance, témoigne de l’affiliation initiale de York à l’Université de Toronto et du ferme soutien qu’elle en a reçu. Les couleurs de l’Université York sont le blanc et l’écarlate. October 2012 Convocation / 9 YORK UNIVERSITY L’UNIVERSITÉ YORK “A first task of York University will be to use the great traditional subjects to shed light on the problems of today’s world…No one in his right mind would today oppose the need for a high degree of specialization. But to have specialization and nothing else is to possess but half an education…we shall try to break down the barriers of specialization, to give to York University students a sense of the unity of knowledge.” « La première mission de l’Université York consistera à appliquer les grandes disciplines traditionnelles pour mieux comprendre les problèmes actuels...De nos jours, personne sain d’esprit ne mettrait en doute la nécessité de posséder une spécialisation de haut niveau. Pourtant, avoir une spécialisation et rien d’autre ne revient qu’à posséder une demi éducation...c’est pourquoi nous tenterons d’abolir les barrières de la spécialisation, afin de donner aux étudiants de l’Université York un sentiment d’unification des connaissances. » York’s Founding President Murray Ross, 1960 Murray Ross, président fondateur de l’Université York, 1960 Since its inception in 1959, York University has become worldrenowned for its unique interdisciplinary approach to teaching and research. An education at York University provides an interdisciplinary perspective and a modern approach to the issues facing today’s world. York is where students and faculty from differing disciplines join together to explore problems to the fullest possible extent.

October 2012 Convocation / 13 Clara Hughes, O.C., O.M., Doctor of Laws Clara Hughes, O.C., docteure en droit Olympic Athlete, Mental Health Advocate Athlète olympique, défenderesse de la santé mentale Clara Hughes is one of the biggest stories to emerge in Canadian sports. As a six-time Olympic medallist in cycling and speed skating, she is the only athlete in history to win multiple medals in both Summer and Winter Games. Clara Hughes est une des sportives canadiennes les plus accomplies. Ayant gagné six médailles olympiques en cyclisme et en patinage de vitesse, elle est la seule athlète de l’histoire à avoir gagné plusieurs médailles à des Jeux d’été et à des Jeux d’hiver. While she has pursued her dreams through the world of sport, her ultimate goal has always been to motivate youth and inspire hope in others through her actions. After winning gold in 2006, she donated $10,000 of her personal savings to the Right to Play programs. This donation challenged Canadians to support the cause, raising over half a million dollars for the international humanitarian organization that uses sport for development. In 2010, she donated her $10,000 medal bonus to the Vancouver inner city school program, ‘Take a Hike’, which uses adventure-based learning to give youth at risk a better direction in life. She is the National Spokesperson for Bell Canada’s Mental Health initiative and the ‘Let’s Talk’ campaign. By sharing past struggles with depression, she has helped break down the stigma associated with mental illness. She is an Officer of the Order of Canada and a Member of the Order of Manitoba, and has been awarded the International Olympic Committee’s prestigious ‘Sport and the Community’ award for her commitment to promoting the values of sport and play around the world. Ms Hughes also has a star on Canada’s Walk of Fame. Ms Hughes was given the great honour of being the Canadian Flag Bearer for the 2010 Vancouver Olympic Games, proudly leading the home team to its historic medal-winning performance. 14 / October 2012 Convocation Pendant qu’elle réalisait ses rêves dans le monde du sport, son objectif ultime a toujours été de motiver les jeunes et de donner espoir aux gens par ses réalisations. Après avoir gagné la médaille d’or en 2006, elle a fait un don personnel de 10 000 $ au programme Right to Play. Son don a incité les Canadiens à soutenir cette cause, ce qui a permis de recueillir plus d’un demi-million de dollars au profit de l’organisation humanitaire internationale qui mise sur le sport comme tremplin de développement. En 2010, elle a donné sa prime de médaille de 10 000 $ au programme scolaire du centreville de Vancouver, Take a Hike, qui propose des activités d’apprentissage axées sur l’aventure afin de réorienter les jeunes à risque. Elle est la porte-parole nationale de l’initiative de santé mentale de Bell Canada, Cause pour la cause. En parlant de ses problèmes de dépression, elle a aidé à atténuer la honte qui entoure la maladie mentale. Elle est Officière de l’Ordre du Canada, membre de l’Ordre du Manitoba, et lauréate du prix « Sport et communauté » décerné par le Comité international olympique pour son engagement à promouvoir les valeurs du sport et du jeu dans le monde entier. Mme Hughes a aussi une étoile sur l’Allée des célébrités canadiennes. Elle a eu le grand honneur de porter le drapeau du Canada aux Jeux olympiques de 2010 à Vancouver, menant fièrement l’Équipe Canada à sa meilleure performance olympique de l’histoire. Paul G.S.

As graduates, you are automatically members of the York University Alumni Association (YUAA), joining a global community of more than 250,000 graduates who enjoy the privileges and perks of YUAA membership. York is truly an interdisciplinary university that looks at life from all angles. Unfettered by convention and traditional expectations, York’s innovative approach has forged a vibrant institution and our strength in numbers reflects this passionate approach to education. As alumni, you are uniquely prepared to face the opportunities and challenges of an ever-changing world with clarity and vision. This vision is your strength — both as a class and as individuals — and I urge you to keep in touch and be actively involved as a York graduate, not just with the University but with one another, so that you can draw on each other’s insights. Alumni play a vital role in the life of the University. As graduates, the ongoing reputation of the University affects how others value a York degree, and we have the opportunity to enhance that value by acting as ambassadors for York’s education and research activities. You can stay in contact with your classmates and get all the news about upcoming events and services through the online newsletter Alumni Matters and the Alumni Web site (yorku.ca/alumni). You can maintain contacts and make new ones by attending our special events or by volunteering. You can act as a mentor for current students, get involved with a York alumni group in your hometown or country or help York recruit the alumni of the future. You can also act as advisers to the University, suggesting new ideas and offering constructive feedback. Your achievement is outstanding! You and your fellow graduates are the best ambassadors for York University. Through your involvement with the York University Alumni Association you will continue to demonstrate that York prepares its graduates to redefine the possible. We wish you every success! Yours truly, Guy Burry (BA ‘82) Chair, York University Alumni Association Board of Directors October 2012 Convocation / 55 Félicitations à la classe de 2012 Félicitations à l’occasion de l’obtention de votre diplôme et bienvenue dans la communauté des diplômés de l’Université York!

Notre force, exprimée en nombres, reflète cette approche passionnée de l’éducation. En tant que diplômés, vous êtes déjà prêts à profiter des possibilités offertes et à relever les défis avec une grande clarté de vision dans un monde en pleine évolution.

Les diplômés jouent un rôle vital dans la vie de l’Université. La réputation continue de celle-ci influe sur la valeur que d’autres attachent à un diplôme de York, et nous avons la possibilité de rehausser cette valeur grâce à notre rôle d’ambassadeurs et d’ambassadrices des activités d’éducation et de recherche de York. Vous pourrez ainsi maintenir le lien avec vos camarades de classe et vous tenir au courant des événements à venir et des services offerts aux diplômés par l’entremise du bulletin électronique Alumni Matters et du site web Alumni (yorku.ca/alumni). En participant à nos activités spéciales ou en offrant vos services en tant que volontaires, vous pourrez non seulement maintenir le contact avec vos relations actuelles, mais vous en faire de nouvelles. Vous pourrez remplir les fonctions de mentors pour des étudiants actuels, participer aux activités d’un groupe de diplômés de York dans votre ville ou dans votre pays, ou aider York à recruter les diplômés de l’avenir. Vous pourrez aussi remplir le rôle de conseillers et de conseillères pour l’Université en lui suggérant de nouvelles idées et en offrant une rétroaction constructive. Votre réussite est remarquable! Vous et les autres diplômés êtes les meilleurs ambassadeurs et ambassadrices de l’Université York.
