Role of College Council

The College Council is the collective voice of the College in that it is an assembly of faculty, support staff, students, and administrators who suggest directions in which the College should proceed. The Council advises the President of the College in matters affecting academic policy, planning, and practice, including, the successful implementation of Humber’s Strategic initiatives. College policy or business items ultimately proceeding to the College's Board of Governors may appear at Council at the discretion of the President before final disposition at the Board of Governors.
