Student Advisory Committee (SAC)

The Student Advisory Committee (SAC) plays an essential role in shaping Humber Polytechnic's approach to health and well-being. As a consultative group, SAC members provide valuable feedback on our Well-being Strategy, programs, and services, helping to ensure we meet the diverse needs of our student community.

What Does the SAC Do?

Offer Perspectives

SAC members contribute their viewpoints on issues related to Humber Polytechnic's four dimensions of health and well-being: physical, mental, financial, and social.

Share Unique Insights

Drawing from their diverse lived experiences as students of Humber or the University of Guelph-Humber, SAC members bring fresh perspectives to the table.

Engage in Discussions

Through working groups and focus groups, SAC members explore student experiences, provide constructive feedback on current programs, and propose innovative ideas to improve well-being services.

By collaborating with the SAC, Humber ensures that student voices are at the heart of creating a campus culture that supports health and well-being for all.

Meet the 2024-2025 SAC Members

Meet the champions of campus well-being! Our 2024-2025 Student Advisory Committee is here to make a difference. To help you get to know them, we’ve asked them to share a bit about themselves—including their name, pronouns, academic program, cultural background and hometown, the superpower they wish they had to support well-being, and the things they love most.
