We need your help. Have you had success implementing HLO Mindsets and Skills into your classes? We'd love your help in supporting other teaching faculty as they explore HLOs (Humber Learning Outcomes) in their courses.

Innovative Learning will run a series of workshops on HLOs in the May-June period, and we would love to highlight the expertise of teaching faculty who currently have a very good handle on HLO Mindsets, as well as examples of the ways that HLO Skills in Action have been implemented into teaching and learning at Humber.

There are two ways to get involved:

1. Seeking secondees to support workshops in May-June for other faculty on HLO Mindsets (Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Belonging, Sustainability, Systems Thinking, and Indigenous Ways of Being, Knowing and Doing). Please check with your AD to explore options for a bit of time each week. For the sake of this conversation, we unofficially anticipate this may be one to two hours a week, depending on the nature of the topic and the number of secondees available to support their peers.

2. Seeking examples of how you have successfully integrated HLO Skills in Action into your teaching. We would love to showcase your innovation to the teaching community at Humber.

Please reach out to ranya.khan@humber.ca or heather.lowry@humber.ca to share ideas, examples, or questions.

Almost ten years ago, Humber introduced the Integrated Energy Master Plan (IEMP), a 20-year strategy that guides our campus energy efficiency, greenhouse gas and water reduction goals.

Through multiple construction and retrofit projects since 2014-2015, so far we have achieved:

• 24.2% reduction in energy use per square foot
• 11% reduction in GHG emissions
• 23.7% reduction in water use per student
• about $8.6 million savings in utilty costs

We are on track to meet our IEMP goals and reduce our environmental impact while growing our campuses and giving students the chance to contribute to a greener future.

Watch the IEMP Progress video to learn more about our work so far, and access the IEMP page for more information about the plan.

The provision, service and consumption of alcoholic beverages on College premises is subject to the regulations of the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) and the Liquor License Act of Ontario.

Humber is licensed to serve alcoholic beverages only in the designated areas listed below and only under the supervision of Food Services and the Faculty of Business.

Humber College and the University of Guelph-Humber (Humber) take the safety of our community seriously. This includes the ability to notify community members of an emergency.

Due to some recent upgrades, it is necessary to continue testing of pre-recorded emergency messages at the North campus only.

Testing of the emergency messages will take place on Saturday, March 2, 2024 between 6 to 10 p.m., including residence. Testing will require the playing of several pre-recorded emergency messages several times to ensure full coverage of the system. It is anticipated that testing will take approximately three (3) hours. Please note that testing in the residence building will be completed prior to 8 p.m.

An announcement will be made via the PA prior to the start of the testing and once the testing is complete.

Questions or concerns can be directed to Kathy Branton, manager Business Continuity and Emergency Management at kathy.branton@humber or ext. 5550.
