Please note a change in how large volumes of cardboard are managed at Lakeshore Campus: 

• For several boxes/cardboard volumes: Please break them down flat and create a work order on Archibus for BEST staff to come pick it up. 

• For small amount (e.g. one or two pizza boxes): Please break them down flat and leave them near a recycling bin station. BEST will collect them as they come by to manage the recycling streams.

To all members of the Humber and University of Guelph-Humber community,

As we experience colder temperatures and snow in the coming weeks, we would like to share information about the impact of severe weather and/or campus closure on college operations in response to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Only in-person classes and assessments being held on campus will be affected by inclement weather and (physical) campus closure. Inclement winter weather is not expected to impact current online courses, or most faculty and staff who are working from home.

All online classes and assessments will continue regardless of weather conditions or if Humber campuses are closed due to severe weather. In the event that inclement weather affects online class delivery, (such as a power outage or internet disruption), the college will assess the impact on online classes and will confirm if they are to continue as scheduled.

If any in-person classes or assessments are cancelled due to severe weather/campus closure, the professor of that class will contact their students to make alternate arrangements for coursework.

Employees who regularly work on campus, and who are unable to attend campus due to severe weather/campus closure should contact their supervisor.

All faculty and staff working from home will continue to perform their normal responsibilities, even if the physical campus is closed due to inclement weather.

Overall, during the winter season, we are planning to be open each day and to operate as we have been during the pandemic. In the event that a college-wide or specific campus closure is required due to severe weather, an announcement will be posted on humber.ca, our main Facebook, Twitter and Instagram channels, and Humber Guardian App by 6 a.m. for morning classes, and 3:30 p.m. for evening classes, or as soon as possible. Unless a closure notice is posted as above, please consider the college to be open, per provincial and health authority guidelines.

For students who have in-person classes, if you think the roadways near your home or the college are unsafe due to severe ice or snow, please call or email your professor if you decide not to come to class. For employees who think it is unsafe to travel to the college because of severe ice or snow, please call or email your supervisor.

You can sign up to receive notification of Humber campus activity, including closures here.

We will also inform GTA media of a campus or college closure.

If a physical campus closure occurs, students scheduled to be in-person at external organizations for an internship or placement, or for other college related activities, will follow the protocol of the external organization with respect to cancellation of college activities or closure of the facility. It is the student’s responsibility to advise their external placement advisor or supervisor of any situation that prevents them from attending their placement or work.

For more information, please see the Severe Weather Closure Procedure. 

We wish you a safe and warm winter season. 

The CICE team and students would like to thank all the faculty who have welcomed a CICE student into their classroom this semester. Through your exceptional guidance and support, you have helped enhance a CICE student's college experience!
