What is Friendlier?

Friendlier is a reusable food container program introduced to reduce the single-use packing Humber sends to landfill and align with the federal government’s ban on several types of single-use plastic. Friendlier containers are BPA-free and can be re-circulated up to 100 times.

How it works:

1. Receive your meal in a friendlier container and pay a $0.50 refundable deposit 
2. Download the Friendlier app (Android)
3. Scan the container using the Friendlier app, after enjoying your meal 
4. Return your container to one of the many blue Friendlier collection bins on campus 
5. Receive your deposit back within 1-2 weeks on the Friendlier app 

Over 200,000 plastic food containers have avoided landfill since the launch of #ReuseHumber, the initiative supporting reusable container programs on campus.

Information Technology Services

Medical Response Plans (MRP) exist to ensure faculty receive the information they need in the event that a learner experiences a medical incident during class such as a seizure or a life-threatening allergic reaction. MRPs are developed by Accessibility Consultants in Accessible Learning Services (ALS) if a student discloses medical information that necessitates a plan. 

• A MRP is developed and will outline steps to be taken by faculty and Public Safety when appropriate if a medical incident occurs.   

• Faculty are never required to perform any medical intervention. There is an expectation that they will alert the proper resources (e.g., emergency services, Humber Public Safety) to attend to the learner as appropriate. 

• MRPs are sent directly to faculty, Public Safety and the appropriate Associate Dean via email by ALS staff. In most cases, the MRP will be issued at the start of the semester but depending on when a learner connects with ALS, it may be issued during the semester.  

• Should you receive an MRP, be sure to review it carefully and note the contact information for Public Safety. 

Visit our ALS Information for Faculty website to learn more about accommodating students with disabilities.
