Oral Histories

Humber Archives' Oral History Project was launched in 2019. The goal of the project is to connect with faculty, staff, and alumni from Humber's past and record their memories of their time at Humber.

We are always looking for new participants in the project. If you, or someone you know, is interested in being interviewed, please email the archives at archives@humber.ca.
