Lakeshore Campus, Room H206

Open schedule on Mondays

As part of the College’s DX Receiving project, we will be building a new one-storey building in the space behind building D at the North Campus. This receiving building will have walk-in fridges and freezers, loading docks, loading areas, and office spaces, serving the Faculty of Business’ culinary programs, as well as other campus services.

Starting Monday, February 24, 2020, a large portion of parking lot 15 will be closed permanently. The portable building DX will also be demolished.

Alternative parking spots have been arranged for staff who currently park in the affected area of parking lot 15. During construction, staff who continue parking in lot 15 will experience some noise and inconveniences – especially during excavation activities. We apologize in advance for disturbances and are working with our contractors to minimize the impact.

For questions related to parking, please contact James Irvine at x5438. For questions related to construction, please contact Robert Parkin at x4829.

Didn’t have time for breakfast before leaving home this morning? Looking for a fresh cup of coffee and pastry when you arrive on campus? You will be pleased to know that The Spot is now serving a hot breakfast menu.

If you arrive to campus by bus or park in lots 3-6 you will want to check-out the new ALL-DAY BREAKFAST menu. The Spot is conveniently located just inside the doors of the Barrett CTI building tucked away under the spectacular staircase.

Doors open at 8 a.m. and feature two new hot breakfast meals alongside freshly baked pastries and quality organic and fair trade Colombian coffee from Propeller Coffee Co., a local micro-roaster based in Toronto.

The Spot’s Brand Ambassador, Tanya, is pleased to serve up the new all-day breakfast made-to-order menu featuring fresh cage-free eggs in these two meals:

• Big Breakfast $5.19 – scrambled eggs, hash brown, bacon or sausage and texts toast
• Breakfast Fold $3.89 – scrambled eggs, tomato, bacon and cheddar folded in a tortilla wrap

Open from 8 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., The Spot offers a refreshing and tranquil experience serving up fresh foods with a commitment to waste reduction and using local seasonal ingredients.  

Lunch is served daily from 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and features three daily entrees – vegetarian, vegan and meat using root-to-stem techniques and waste-not culinary strategies with dine-in dishware options to reduce packaging waste on campus.

To the Humber community,

Earlier today, The Hon. Ross Romano, Ontario Minister of Colleges and Universities announced that the provincial government has decided to provide Ontario colleges with the opportunity to offer nursing degrees independently. This is good news for students and for Humber, and we welcome the decision.

The opportunity to offer a standalone nursing degree has been a top advocacy priority of the college for some time. We have engaged in many conversations with government to highlight the benefit of this decision for students and for the health care sector in the province.

Humber has a long history of delivering high-quality nursing education and training health care providers. For almost 20 years, we have had a successful partnership with the University of New Brunswick (UNB) that has enabled us to offer Ontario’s largest collaborative undergraduate nursing program at our North Campus. We have long had a shared understanding that Humber's goal was to offer this program on our own. While we explore this new opportunity to do so, our focus will continue to be on ensuring all Humber-UNB nursing students are prepared for successful careers in the health sector and beyond.

We have the greatest respect for UNB. Our partnership with them is important, as it has supported the development of our internal capacity to deliver a nursing program. We will look for new ways to collaborate and partner with UNB.

We will keep the Humber community updated as we learn more about what will be involved with offering our own Humber nursing undergraduate program. Please contact Jenna Donelson at jenna.donelson@humber.ca if you have any questions.
