Humber College will be promoting the TO2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games, which are being hosted in the GTA in July and August of 2015, with a kick-off celebration at the college’s North Campus on Thursday November 13.

Pan Am/Parapan Am Day is an initiative of the Sport Management program, which has added projects into its 2014/2015 curriculum that offer students the opportunity to gain practical experience in community outreach, event planning and execution in support of the TO2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games. The event enables students to connect with industry leaders, media, faculty and TO2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games executives.

Humber’s Pan Am/Parapan Am Day will celebrate sport and the cultures of the Americas which will include a variety of mini sport games and interactive activities, campus tours at the North Campus in the Concourse and Student Centre from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m.

The Sport Management students also plan to raise awareness and funds for the Canadian Olympic Foundation and the Canadian Paralympic Committee.

We've heard that students often feel siloed in their programs and want an opportunity to meet other students from different disciplines. On November 12th at Humber's gallery, this will all change!

Do your students wonder what students in other programs are up to? How do they stay creative among all those textbooks and tests? Join us for the gallery’s first salon event where students can informally share what they're working on and hear about other student projects on campus

To get the conversation started, we’ll have three students from different programs talk about how they become (and stay) inspired in their work:

Sarah Stephens
Sarah Stephens is finishing her final year in Humber’s Graphic Design program. Growing up in a creative household filled with art, music, and make believe, she learned to find her inspiration in a wide variety of places–including the garbage can once or twice!

Jesse Byiers
Jesse Byiers is co-artistic director and co-creator of Living Room Theatre, and of ArteBote Collective. This summer, he self-produced and devised the puppet show c u t . with ArteBote Collective. Originally from Alberta, Jesse attended Red Deer College’s acting program and moved to Toronto in 2011.

Marta Ryborz
Marta is a student in the Global Business Management at the Humber College Business School. She also has degrees in International Relations and African Studies. Her goal is to combine African field experience with project management skills and ethical business initiatives. She believes in social entrepreneurship and seeing opportunities in challenges.

This event is in partnership with the School of Creative & Performing Arts.

The Exchangers!
How do we stay creative among all those textbooks and tests?

We’re all curious as to what other programs are up to, but rarely have the chance to connect and talk about our projects. The Exchangers is a salon which gives students the opportunity to informally share what their working on, learn about students from other programs, and get inspired!
