His 2020 Vision for the university focuses on three main areas: access, affordability and excellence; community engagement; and diversity and inclusion. As part of the vision, he launched a $400 million initiative, including identifying $100 million in need-based aid for students, to lower costs and increase excellence. Dr. Drake is a member of the National Academy of Medicine and the American Academy of Arts & Sciences. He has been named vice chair of the Association of American Universities for 2016-17, and serves in leadership roles for the Association of Public and Land-grant Universities, University Innovation Alliance, National Collegiate Athletic Association, B1G 10 and the American Talent Initiative, a new initiative focused on increasing the number of low-income, talented students at top-performing universities.
