Hall of Fame
Doug Vandor, a native of Dewittville, Que., graduated with a physiology degree in 1998 followed four years later by a master's degree in experimental surgery. The 5-foot-11, 154-pound rower competed three seasons for McGill, starting in a novice boat at age 22 but quickly moved up to the heavyweight eight the following year. He rowed for the national team from 2001 to 2012, competing in three Olympics and 10 world championships, where he collected three bronze medals. He also raced in 12 World Cup regattas, winning a pair of golds, four silvers and two bronzes. In 2011, the McGill rowing club christened a new boat in his honour, naming it "The Doug Vandor".
