On March 23, Toronto’s Medical Officer of Health sent some new directives on all post-secondary residences. As a result, effective March 24 at 4 p.m., the following measures will be in place in Humber Residence until further notice:

Guests will no longer be permitted in the residence. Residents who are approved to stay after today may continue to meet friends and family outside of the residence, and are encouraged to continue to maintain the recommended physical distance.
Residence lounges will be closed, with the exception of access for microwave/sink access in R&S Buildings at the North Campus. One resident at a time may enter the lounge to access the microwave/sink, and then take their food back to their room.
We continue to ask residents to maintain a safe social/physical distance and not gather in groups while in residence or on campus. The Medical Officer of Health has instructed us to monitor and enforce no group social gatherings on campus, including in residence.

We understand that this is a difficult time, and we will be reaching out to residents with approved extensions soon with ways to socialize safely. We also continue to clean common spaces and high touch surfaces in residence frequently throughout the day. The cafeteria will continue to be take-out only, and will be open from 10 a.m.to 1 p.m. daily for students to pick up all of their meals and snacks for the day. If you have run out of money on your meal plan, Humber will pay for your meals, however you must continue to present your residence card at the cafeteria each time. More information is available on the cafeteria posters located by the front desk and by the elevators on the first floor in each building.

If students require support while in residence, please call the front desk at x77201 for urgent matters, or email your RLC at northrlc@humber.ca.
