Greetings Humber employees:

Humber’s Centre for Human Rights, Equity & Diversity (hrs.humber.ca/human-rights-equity-diversity.html) is conducting a review of its programs and services. The Centre’s mandate is to embed equity, diversity and inclusion throughout Humber.

The data we collect will only be used to complete the review. The report(s) of the review will not link data to any individual. The results of the program and service review will help Humber to further distinguish itself as a postsecondary leader in the advancement of equity, diversity and inclusion.

The 2018 LAS Interdisciplinary Conference "Enlightenment 2.0 - What's Old is New Again" is scheduled for October 12 and 13, 2018 at the North Campus.

The Enlightenment represents a radical shift in thinking, from orthodoxy to empiricism, and from acceptance of doctrine, to the emergence of thought based on reason and philosophy. Does the spirit of the Enlightenment provide some guidance for us in terms of how best to navigate our current state of being? What would Enlightenment 2.0 look like?

The keynote speaker is Professor Joseph Heath from the Philosophy department of University of Toronto. Please submit abstracts of 100 to 250 words to lasconference@humber.ca by June 10. Select papers will be published in an edited volume. For more information visit liberalarts.humber.ca/about/conferences-lectures/conference.html

It is with mixed feelings I share the news that Sandra Cardinal is leaving Humber for a new opportunity at York University.

In her seven years at the College, Sandra has been warmly embraced by faculty, administrators and support staff. She has been instrumental in developing Humber’s profile as a leader in degree offerings, working closely with the Schools on numerous credentials. She has also led degree faculty through the hard work of consent renewals and has developed new pathways for students with a focus on access. In recent months, Sandra completely redesigned and rewrote the Program Planning, Development and Renewal website.

Most recently, people across Humber recognize Sandra as our central liaison for program mapping. Leading seemingly countless faculty workshops, she has helped programs redesign their learning outcomes in alignment with the Ontario Qualifications Framework and in a way that articulates the value proposition of a Humber education. It's her appreciation for the art and craft of this work, and her effervescent nature, that I will miss most.

While we will all miss her, we also send our very best wishes for her exciting new role as Director of Academic Partnerships and Planning at York. Please join us in a celebration for Sandra from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday, June 5 in the President’s Boardroom – LRC 6104.

We’re delighted to announce the winners of our North American Occupational Safety and Health week draw. Anyone who wrote to tell us what they did for safety during NAOSH week was entered in a draw for gift cards. And the winners are…

  • The Humber Libraries Circulation Team – the whole team is working to reduce dust in the library. Thanks Amanda Van Mierlo for telling us about it!
  • Allan Brown, Central Plant Services – it was great to hear how careful Allan is when he works with ladders. He finds the right size, inspects it before use, then makes sure not to go past the second to last rung. Perfect!

Many thanks to those who participated and to everyone who helps to make Humber a safer place every day. Finally, a special thank you goes out to Humber’s Joint Health and Safety Committee who are always working hard for you.

Stay safe!
