I’m pleased to announce the appointment of Neil Price to the position of Director, Student Life within the Department of Student Success and Engagement. Neil comes to Humber College from George Brown College, where he taught for over ten years, most recently in the Centre for Preparatory and Liberal Studies. Neil is former Executive Director of LogicalOutcomes, a non-profit consultancy focused on strengthening the human services sector through applied research and program evaluation. 

The Early Childhood Education Department has been fortunate to have had Laura Oyama on their team for the past 31 years. Laura came to Humber in 1986 as an Infant Therapist working with high risk families and children. Her knowledge and skills, combined with her credentials and experience as a child care supervisor, teacher, and professor clearly identified her immediately as an asset. During her tenure with Humber, Laura has been visionary in her contributions to the department, students, children, families, and the larger early childhood community.

It is my pleasure to congratulate Lynne Bentley, Director of Humber Libraries, on a successful career and wish her well in her retirement, while acknowledging she will be missed.

After more than 32 years of service, Ann Dean has retired from Humber. She parts the college in her most recent position of Dean, Program Planning, Development and Renewal. I would like to take this opportunity to thank Ann sincerely for her numerous and varied contributions to Humber’s success over the years. While it’s challenging to sum up Ann’s notable career dedicated to both teaching and program development, the following summary provides some insight into the significant impact that she has had on the college.
