This month, we’re putting the Sustainability Spotlight on Student Life Coordinator at the University of Guelph-Humber (UofGH), Riyanti Poerba (she/her). Some of you may know Riyanti from her roles with Residence Life and Student Life at Humber.  

Watch the full video interview to learn how Riyanti is taking on sustainability-related initiatives at UofGH, click here.

Riyanti’s advice for students and staff looking to get involved with sustainability-related initiatives is to not be afraid to ask questions or learn something new!

Please join me in welcoming Kasey Dunn to the role of Project Manager for the Humber Centres of Innovation, Centre for Entrepreneurship. In this role, Kasey will work on managing processes in support of effective delivery of key priorities of the Centre as well as coordination of specific project and events related to the COI network business plan.

Kasey has served as program manager for entrepreneurship programming in a variety of contexts including women’s accelerators, arts incubators, and most recently at University of Toronto. Kasey is passionate about empowering through innovation and entrepreneurship, and addressing the socio-economic barriers that prevent young innovators from reaching their full potential. Her diverse background, including a career in the fine performing arts, and experience as a civic engagement and animal rights advocate, informs her creative and impact-driven approach to entrepreneurship.

Kasey holds a Master of Management Innovation, and Entrepreneurship from Queens University, and has completed a Design Thinking program at the University of Toronto.  She is also is a serial entrepreneur who has founded a number of companies and non-profit organizations tied to social innovation and the arts community.

We look forward to the entrepreneurial passion and positive energy that Kasey will bring to complement our team.

Kind regards,

Cheryl Mitchell
Director, Centre for Entrepreneurship

Collaborating and sharing a document is so easy with OneDrive. Not too long ago, if you wanted to collaborate on a document, you would write a first draft, email it to your group, and each of them would edit it, but you could end up with multiple versions of the original document. 

Say goodbye to version 1, version 2, version 3 and so on and say hello to sharing with cloud documents. Everyone can edit the same document at the same time. The people editing the document are represented with a unique coloured flag that even shows where they are in the document.

There are multiple ways of sharing a document. You can use the Share button in most Microsoft 365 apps, or you can share within OneDrive.
