Annual Report 2023 | Durham College

Message from president Don Lovisa

At Durham College, our shared goal to lead the way underscores everything we do. It has inspired us to be bold and innovative in our approach to education. It has fostered our culture of inclusion, engagement, and support. It has driven us to be future-focused on our sustainability measures, progressive practices, and modern facilities. Furthermore, it has nurtured a strong and vibrant community on and off our
campus.

I am humbled to be surrounded by students, staff, the Board of Governors, alumni, and industry and community partners, who bring our mission to life through their daily actions and work. In the pages ahead, you will read about some of DC's notable initiatives, programs and events over the past year that demonstrate our resiliency and underscore our commitment to collaboration and connection.

Students’ voices feature prominently in this report because, as an educational institution, they are at the centre of everything we do. While they share their own stories and positive experiences at DC, through their eyes, we see a picture of a welcoming, supportive community doing everything it can to provide opportunities, resources, support and knowledge. Seeing our efforts come to life and the incredible impact our focus on well-being and success has on our students is gratifying.

I am proud of our achievements this year and look ahead with energy and enthusiasm. I know that together, we will continue to lead the way.

Sincerely,
Don Lovisa
President
