It is my great pleasure to announce the appointment of Janet Bedard as Humber’s incoming Associate Dean, Built Environment. Since 2011, Janet has worked in the college system and has held leadership roles in applied research, degree development, community engagement and as a Professor in applied technology.

Good morning and welcome to the 36^th annual President’s Breakfast. This is a special year for Humber: we’re celebrating our 50^th anniversary and the many great achievements from this year and the last half-century. We’re also looking ahead to initiatives that will inspire and motivate us to maintain our leadership role in Ontario postsecondary education for the next 50 years.

It’s a great thrill to welcome the Humber family back as we begin the new academic year. I hope you’ve had a great summer and found time to relax and enjoy the season.

The Office of Sustainability would like to thank each and every participant at our mini Honey Harvest and tea party event. We were successfully able to harvest 110 jars! 

The honey was from last fall and had not been used by the bees. It was harvested from our North Campus apiaries early this summer and our beekeepers returned the wet frames for the bees to use for this year’s crop.

We unveiled our new labels featuring eight different honey bee facts to help educate us about the many virtues of honey bees.

Welcome to the start of the 2017-2018 academic year. Over the summer, the Capital Development and Facilities Management department has been working on several large-scale campus development projects at the North Campus, along with ongoing Backfill initiatives at North and Lakeshore campuses. Work will continue through the academic year. We recognize that these necessary and innovative projects may impact the campus community throughout the year, and thank everyone for their patience and cooperation as the work is completed. Here are brief summaries of the projects.
