Thanks to the more than 600 people who participated in the Digital Campus survey last month. In fewer than 10 questions, respondents outlined their vision for a campus that identified digital approaches that would shape their experiences at Humber. Some of those suggestions included the introduction of emerging technologies into their teaching and learning experiences while others focused on improving day-to-day interactions with Humber, both on and off campus.

As part of the survey, respondents who provided their email addresses were entered into a draw for an iPad or one of several gift cards. The Co-Chairs of the Technology Information Management Steering Committee Scott Briggs, Chief Information Officer, and Gina Antonacci, Associate Vice President, Academic, were on site to hand out prizes to the lucky winners. The Co-Chairs took a moment to recognize and thank the winners for their contributions. The winner of the iPad is Mridul Vij (3D Modeling and Visual Effects) and he is joined in the photograph by one of the gift card winners – D. Merkley (staff Campus Services). Other winners not in attendance for the photograph are Simardeep Singh (Global Business Management), Ashley Freiheit (Fashion Management) and Sabrina Dias. Thank you again to all who responded to the survey.

Stay tuned for more information about Humber’s journey toward building a Digital Campus.

As a Humber employee, you have a unique opportunity to join us in extending your support of our students in a very special way.

Every day, across the college, we hear about one of our students who is struggling with their finances. For many of our students, financial support is the only way they can pursue a postsecondary education.

Your gift to the Humber Gives campaign will help Humber students by providing awards and scholarships so they can focus on their studies instead of their finances. Watch this short video to see how your support can make a difference.

Join us and make a donation through payroll deduction, monthly giving, or a one-time gift, to make giving easy.

Please know that 100 per cent of your donations go directly to student scholarships.

Join us and make your gift by March 31. You won't regret it.
