Good morning Humber - September 6

starbucks
A second Starbucks location has opened at Humber Polytechnic.

The first week of the school year is almost done. Has the second Starbucks location helped make it go by?

Things to note:

Did you know students can save money on TTC transit fares? To qualify, you need to have your photo taken for Post-Secondary Photo ID. Humber is hosting photo sessions on campus on September 24 (Lakeshore) and September 26 (North). 

While the new Cultural Hub is a welcome addition to Lakeshore campus, it is confusing people who are trying to get from Building B to Building A. The college has put up new signage to help point the way.

Humber journalism students were busy Thursday with a multi-year mixer and scavenger hunt to help welcome back students. They're also starting to get ready for the official launch of our new website HumberETC on September 26. Stay tuned for details about a launch contest!
