It is with mixed feelings I share the news that Sandra Cardinal is leaving Humber for a new opportunity at York University.

In her seven years at the College, Sandra has been warmly embraced by faculty, administrators and support staff. She has been instrumental in developing Humber’s profile as a leader in degree offerings, working closely with the Schools on numerous credentials. She has also led degree faculty through the hard work of consent renewals and has developed new pathways for students with a focus on access. In recent months, Sandra completely redesigned and rewrote the Program Planning, Development and Renewal website.

Most recently, people across Humber recognize Sandra as our central liaison for program mapping. Leading seemingly countless faculty workshops, she has helped programs redesign their learning outcomes in alignment with the Ontario Qualifications Framework and in a way that articulates the value proposition of a Humber education. It's her appreciation for the art and craft of this work, and her effervescent nature, that I will miss most.

While we will all miss her, we also send our very best wishes for her exciting new role as Director of Academic Partnerships and Planning at York. Please join us in a celebration for Sandra from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday, June 5 in the President’s Boardroom – LRC 6104.
