It is with mixed emotions that I share that Neil Price has accepted an exciting new role as Fleming College’s Dean, School of Justice and Community Development.

Neil started at Humber in 2017 as Director, Student Life, where he led First Year Experience, Transition & Orientation, Residence and Peer Leadership, among other programs in SSE. In this role, Neil was also instrumental in transitioning the BASE to an institution-wide student support program.

Since joining the Faculty of Social and Community Services as Associate Dean, Neil has become known for his thoughtful approach to all relationships, with a deep commitment to student success, collaboration and social justice. Some of his accomplishments include leading the development of the successful Bachelor of Addictions and Mental Health program proposal; co-leading FSCS’s Diversity in Teaching research project; co-leading institution-wide student consultations on Black student experiences, and contributing to Humber’s SEM Student Success and Retention Committee. Neil also served as Reviews Editor for the Humber Literary Review.

Neil came to Humber having taught for over 10 years at George Brown College. He has extensive experience as a non-profit sector leader, community researcher and youth advocate. A well-regarded commentator, he writes regularly about public policy and social issues.

Neil will be with us until the end of July. He will be missed by many here at Humber, including myself. Please join me in congratulating Neil and wishing him continued success.

There will be an opportunity to say goodbye to Neil on Friday, July 31 at 1 p.m. A zoom invitation will be posted shortly.
