Barbara Sivak Memorial Award

One or more awards, valued at up to $5,000 each, are presented annually to outstanding undergraduate students enrolled in Year Two of the Optometry program, who have achieved an overall average of 80% or greater and who have exhibited excellence in first-year biomedical courses. This fund is made possible by donations from family, friends, and colleagues of Dr. Barbara Sivak, to honour and remember her dedication and compassion as an educator and friend. Having taught 35 years in the Optometry program, Dr. Sivak touched the lives of many in the optometric community.
