Nora Simpson Leaving Humber College

Dear Humber community,

I’m writing today to share with you that FSCS Associate Dean, Nora Simpson, is leaving Humber College on February 3, 2023. Nora will be taking on the role of Dean, Professional and Part-time Learning at Durham College. 

Nora began at Humber over 10 years ago, as the Associate Director of Accessible Learning Services and shifted to her current role as Associate Dean in 2018. During her time as Associate Dean, Nora has overseen many of the programs offered in the Faculty of Social and Community Services.   

Nora’s passion was always evident with her commitment to access and pathways for learners. Leading the development of and launching the Bachelor of Social Science, Addictions & Mental Health degree, several pathways within the Human Services cluster, and creation of 2 + 2 diploma to degree pathways to name a few.  

Nora's commitment to change through committee participation has been evident throughout her career at Humber. Most recently, Nora has been an instrumental member of the FSCS realignment initiative, ensuring that we continue to strategically shift and grow to adapt to our current needs.  

While she will be deeply missed at Humber, we are excited for Nora as she moves forward in her professional career at Durham College. To ensure leadership and continuity of programming we have posted for the FSCS Associate Dean role.  

We are immensely grateful for all the contributions that Nora has made during her time at Humber, and we hope you’ll take the time to wish Nora well in her next chapter. 

Sincerely, 

June MacDonald-Jenkins
Senior Dean, Faculty of Social and Community Services
Principal, Lakeshore Campus
