Dear Humber College Staff Member,
Humber College is embarking on a North Campus Backfill Project as part of an overall Campus Development Plan to backfill approximately 100,000 square feet of space made available as certain academic schools, departments, and services move to the Learning Resource Centre (LRC). Educational Consulting Services Corp. (ECS) has been retained to undertake this year-long study determining best uses for this space. An essential part of the overall project work plan is to engage the Humber community in a transparent, inclusive and evidence-based space management process that will serve as a framework for future space allocation decision-making.
Accordingly, ECS and members of Humber’s North Campus Backfill Steering Committee will be holding Open Houses to discuss the status of the North Campus Backfill Project and you are invited!
The Open Houses will provide the opportunity for College stakeholders to review and provide feedback about aspects of the Backfill Project, including available backfill space on campus, the space request process, space request evaluation criteria, project timelines, and campus planning directions. ECS consultants and members of the North Campus Backfill Steering Committee will be in attendance to answer questions. An online survey will be available to provide additional comments, should you not be able to attend in person.
Two open houses will take place at each of the North and Lakeshore campuses:
