There are very few people who can say that they spent their entire life with one organization and yet had the opportunity to reinvent themselves, take on new positions and in so doing, indirectly affect the lives of thousands. Cynthia Wilson is one of those individuals and it is with much admiration that I share with you the fact that one of Humber’s unofficial matriarchs has decided to retire effective August 31, 2016.

For more than 40 years, Cynthia has called Humber a second home. As a student and as an employee, she has seen the College grow and change dramatically over the last 4 decades. With each and every change, she has stayed true to her commitment to service excellence. She first began her career at Humber in 1976 after accepting a position as a Typist-Stenographer in the Principal’s Office, North Campus. It was as a result of the training, coaching and mentoring that she received from her colleagues in the Principal’s office that she developed many of the skills by which she is known at Humber: her attention to detail, service commitment and institutional knowledge. Within a short period of time she advanced and was promoted to administrative assistant in what was then renamed the Office of the Vice President Academic and continued to support the operations of that office where her ability to function independently and assume new responsibilities were always noted.

From the Office of the Vice President Academic to the Office of the Dean, Human Studies, and then to the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences, from the position of typist to administrative assistant to business manager, Cynthia has often taken on the role of coach, guide, mentor and friend to many across the institution. She has been all of these things to me since I joined Humber in January 2009. She has never once said she is too busy or turned someone away when they had a question or needed her assistance. She has always been willing to help because she only knows how to give 150% each and every day, and the School of Liberal Arts and Sciences and Humber have benefited from her exceptional dedication and strong work ethic.

Please join me in congratulating Cynthia on her dedication and commitment to Humber and in wishing her only the best as she begins the next chapter of her life.

Sincerely,

Paula Gouveia
Dean, School of Liberal Arts and Sciences
