Students plant a tree

Are you looking for a great fall activity to do with your team? The Humber Arboretum is planting over 100 native trees and shrubs this season and your group can take part!

We've already had school groups and special visitors out working together to get some of the 10 different species in the ground. We're inviting Humber College staff and student groups to take part as well - get in touch and we can arrange a time that works well for you. An Arboretum staff member will guide your group through the planting and at the end you'll have accomplished something as a team and helped restoration efforts in the Humber River watershed.

If interested, please contact Jimmy Vincent, Coordinator of Education, Camps, and Community Outreach at the Humber Arboretum at jimmy.vincent@humber.ca or x77402.

Humber at 50 Concert Postponed
View in full page
When:
November 7, 2017

Humber College will be rescheduling its Humber at 50 concert.

The event was to take place at Koerner Hall in Toronto on Wednesday, November 8, 2017 and will be rescheduled to a new date in 2018.  All tickets will remain valid for the rescheduled date, which will be shared as soon as possible. Ticket holders may request a full refund if they are no longer able to attend.

The college had hoped to be able to continue with this important event that celebrates Humber’s 50th anniversary and will provide awards and scholarships for Humber students. Due to recent developments related to the ongoing Ontario college faculty strike, the event is being postponed.

Humber looks forward to holding this event in 2018 and would like to acknowledge the support of TD Insurance as its presenting sponsor as well as the following sponsors and major supporters humber.ca/advancementandalumni/humberat50concert/our-sponsors.html

Strike Update
View in full page
When:
November 6, 2017

After several days of bargaining, we have been informed that OPSEU has rejected the College Employer Council’s most recent Offer of Settlement. The colleges have asked the Ontario Labour Board to schedule a vote on the offer, and requested that OPSEU suspend the strike while the vote is being organized. At this time, classes remain suspended. The date of the vote is not yet known, but we expect that it will take between five to 10 days to organize the vote. More information will be shared as it becomes available.
