This month, the School of Creative and Performing Arts bids fond farewell to two valued colleagues: Maria Gonsalves and Cynthia Good. Maria Gonsalves’ career at Humber has spanned three decades, two campuses and numerous programs and workshops. Though she started in Marketing, she’ll be remembered most for her contributions to the School of Creative and Performing Arts, where she has brought her innate warmth and considerable knowledge of the College to the position of business manager since the School’s inception. Maria has spent countless hours tirelessly supporting faculty and staff, celebrating students, and nurturing the professional development of her colleagues -- not to mention singing the national anthem at many President's Breakfasts! After a storied career as president and publisher of Penguin Books Canada, Cynthia Good joined Humber College as the founding program co-ordinator of Creative Book Publishing in 2005. In Fall 2014, she stepped down as co-ordinator to focus on program and community outreach as SCAPA's first Director of Student and Industry Initiatives, a role that allowed her to focus on special projects with external partners such as The Book and Periodical Council and Holland College (Charlottetown, PEI). With her keen intellect, creativity, and boundless enthusiasm for student success, Cynthia has been the embodiment of teaching excellence and a leader among her peers. Maria's last day in the office will be Friday, November 25, and Cynthia's, Wednesday, November 30. We wish them continued success and happiness in this next chapter.
