Virgin, the play, is written, directed, produced and performed by Humber's very own Faculty of Liberal Arts professor, Alyson Renaldo. Through endless mental fumblings and 'impure thoughts', a woman relies on humour to answer the difficult question of what her place is in this world. The play premiered in Los Angeles, then had its Canadian premiere in Toronto. It is returning for a limited run at The Native Earth Performing Arts Centre, downtown Toronto, October 18 to 22.

Promotional poster for mature student focus group with a Humber building north campus in the background

Do you know a mature student that would benefit from participating in a focus group on the mature student experience? 

The Mature Student Experience Focus Group 

The Office of the Dean of Students has organized a series of focus groups dedicated to gaining deeper insights into the mature student experience. The aim is to foster a greater understanding of the unique needs of learners who identify as mature students (see below for definition), enhance integration of these needs into existing student services and improve the overall experience of a mature learner at Humber College or the University of Guelph-Humber.

Students who self-identify as mature students and wish to contribute feedback on Humber’s student services and student life or feel their needs are not adequately being addresses are invited to participate and share their invaluable thoughts. 

Mature Student Defintion 

For the project a mature student is not defined by age but by a set of criteria. A student must meet at least one of the criteria to be considered a mature student.  

  • First-generation student (implies that your parent(s) or guardian(s) did not attend post-secondary, therefore making you the first in the family to do so)  
  • Have been away from formal education for at least four years
  • Have not completed any college or university programs
  • Someone returning for a second career or to upgrade skills
  • Has lived experiences as a parent, legal guardian, or caregiver

Focus Group Dates: 

In-person (refreshments provided)

North Campus: Friday, October 13 from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m.
Lakeshore Campus: Tuesday, October 17 from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m.
