As announced a short time ago, Christina Alcena has moved from the Manager, Equity and Student Life position, to fill Melanie Chai’s vacancy as the Interim Associate Director, Advising and Career Services until November, 2022. We have completed our interview process and I am excited to announce that Kimberly Daniels will be our Interim Manager, Equity and Student Life. 

Kimberly has been at Humber for over 14 years. She began as a student at UGH earning her Honours Bachelor Degree of Applied Arts in Media Studies with a Diploma in Public Relations. She began her career at Humber with IGNITE, and recently moved to SSE with roles as a Career Resource Developer and her current position (until June 4) as the Orientation and Student Life Programs Coordinator. Kimberly was responsible for taking Humber’s Orientation program fully online after a grand total of about two weeks on the job. Over the last year she has collaborated with staff, faculty and students to create an innovative, effective and vital orientation program that helps support students in their transition to life at Humber. 

Kimberly has been active in advancing equity and inclusion initiatives at Humber as a member of the Black/African Employee Resource Group and the Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Taskforce. She has also worked to embed equity practices within Orientation – and Student Life, through trainings, collaborations and inclusive content creation. She continues to advance these goals by completing a certification as a Culturally Inclusive Educator along with an Honours Certification in Teaching and Training Adults. 

Kimberly brings her skills as communicator, collaborator and community builder to this position. She is passionate in her approach to supporting students and ensuring we are examining and addressing where we need to act on issues of equity and inclusion. 

Please join me in congratulating Kimberly and welcoming her to the role.

The Partial-Load Registry allows current or previously employed partial-load employees of Humber College to register their interest in being employed as a partial-load faculty for the 2022 calendar year. Registered partial-load employees will be eligible for priority hiring for available partial-load work based on the criteria set out in Article 26.10 of the OPSEU Academic Collective Agreement.

We are pleased to announce that registration for the 2022 calendar year will begin on June 10, 2021. The deadline to register is October 30, 2021. Please note that registration in previous years does not carry over; all faculty must register their interest annually. The college and union highly encourage all partial-load faculty to tender a submission for the Partial-Load Registry.

In order to register for the Partial-Load Registry, please find the access point on the front page of the Humber Human Resources webpage or go to the link at hrs.humber.ca/partialloadregistry.

Questions?

Should you have any questions about the Partial-Load Registry procedures, please speak with your Associate Dean, your Human Resources Business Partner (x5001), or your union (info@opseu562.org).

Have a great summer and thank you for all of your contributions to Humber College. We look forward to having you register for future partial load employment.

Sincerely,

Humber Libraries mourns the loss of the 215 children found at the Kamloops Indian Residential School in British Columbia, and recognizes this tragedy as part of an ongoing legacy of racism, discrimination and violence against Indigenous peoples in Canada.

At the library, we continue to build resource collections that uncover the truth of the genocide that occurred in Canada's Residential School system. We work to find resources that include residential school survivor's stories so that these legacies, ongoing traumas, and truths are not lost.
