OSHAWA, ONT. – After two years of consultation, planning and development, Durham College (DC) and the University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) are pleased to announce the completion of their joint Campus Master Plan (CMP). The CMP outlines a broad vision to show how the institutions will grow their physical presence in the many years ahead to address the academic, research, student life, athletic and community partnership needs as both institutions evolve and grow. It also encompasses the policy and guidelines that implement the vision, support the principles, and will result in holistic placemaking at the shared Oshawa campus.

“The guiding principles of the plan resulted from the ideas and perspectives of our stakeholders, and we thank students, employees, partners and the community for their input and feedback,” said Tim McTiernan, UOIT President and Vice-Chancellor. “This plan will work well for the university and college, as well as for our valued community partners.”

“This has been a significant undertaking for both DC and UOIT, and we are pleased with the work, input and consideration that has resulted in a successful and comprehensive plan,” said DC President, Don Lovisa. “We hope it will create excitement about our vision for new buildings, existing space and facilities, our commitment to being pedestrian and transit friendly, and other details that will carry us from today to large and thriving institutions in 2030 and beyond.”

While the CMP calls for enhancements to the existing campus, the plan also anticipates new growth and encourages walkability as an important component of a vibrant, integrated and sustainable campus community.

Specific CMP focus areas include:

• campus character
• infrastructure and utilities
• movement and circulation
• public realm and open space
• sustainability and universal accessibility

Dr. Gary Polonsky, who led Durham College as president for almost two decades, has been named independent advisor for the economic development of the Pickering Lands. 

Polonsky’s appointment by Lisa Raitt, federal Minister of Transport, was announced in Pickering on July 31. The lands and their future use have been a topic of discussion in Durham Region since the federal government expropriated land in north Pickering for an airport in 1972. In his role as advisor, Polonsky will meet with a wide range of stakeholders across the Greater Toronto Area to gain feedback and input on the economic development potential of the lands, including a potential airport.

Polonsky, who was president of Durham College between 1988 and 2006, is expected to deliver a report on his findings by June 2016.

Oshawa, Ont. – Durham College (DC) was recently ranked among the top 20 performing Canadian post-secondary institutions on Facebook and Twitter by Engagement Labs – a technology and data company that provides full-service, next-generation social technology solutions for marketers.

The colleges and universities were graded based on an eValue score, which measures the institution’s social media and digital marketing efforts and awards a score out of 100. Criteria includes the level of engagement, the unique reach content received and how frequent, fast and well the organization responds to conversations generated on their social media sites.

This is the second time in 12 months that DC has been recognized for having one of the top social media presences within Canadian post-secondary institutions, having been noted as one of Canada’s top 10 social colleges of 2014.

“We’re always looking for innovative and meaningful ways to connect with prospective and current students,” said Carol Beam, executive director, Communications and Marketing at DC. “For us, communication is a two-way street and it’s just as important to engage with our stakeholders as it is to share information. This helps us establish an inclusive and transparent community both on campus and online.”

In 2014, DC launched a major multi-platform social media Experience DC campaign – the most progressive marketing campaign in the college’s history. Fourteen students from all walks of life provided an authentic perspective of college life at DC.

The campaign was so successful that it will run again throughout the 2015/2016 academic year, but has expanded to include employees.

Many of DC’s employees and departments, including DC President Don Lovisa, are already active on social media to provide a more exclusive look at all the exciting programs, highlights and events happening on campus.

Oshawa, Ont. – More than 10 Durham College (DC) students assisted in upgrading and stabilizing the wireless network at the Abilities Centre – a state-of-the-art sports and recreation facility in Whitby, Ont. – in preparation for the 2015 Parapan Am Games.

Thanks to Cisco Systems, Inc. – a leader in communications and Internet solutions and services – nearly a dozen third-year Computer Systems Technology students from the School of Business, IT & Management (BITM) received the opportunity to work on various aspects the centre’s existing network including, stabilization as new equipment was introduced; suggesting support mechanisms; and configuring the network in its new state. Students will also help to maintain the system throughout the event.

As well as upgrading the current network at the Abilities Centre, students from this program, as well as from the Computer Systems Technician program, will volunteer alongside Cisco employees during the games as technical volunteers. DC students will assist spectators, competitors and media with any issues in connecting to and using the networks at a number of venues, including the Oshawa Sports Centre (GM Centre) and the President’s Choice Ajax Pan Am Ballpark as well as the Abilities Centre.

This experience has also led to a partnership between DC and the Abilities Centre to provide third-year students with an ongoing opportunity to provide technical support, so they can gain valuable hands-on training. Current and future work at the Abilities Centre will also be used in case studies to teach real-world examples of how to upgrade and support such a large network.

“This is a great hands-on experience for our students so they can not only see, but also have a hand in supporting, a real production environment network before they graduate,” said the coordinator of the Computer Systems Technology program at DC. “We’re also very pleased to partner with the Abilities Centre for ongoing opportunities for our students to learn real-world applications of what they study in the classroom.”

Fifteen students from other DC programs will also be involved in the Pan Am Games, including three students from the School of Media, Art & Design who will assist the CBC in broadcasting the events and 12 students from the School of Skilled Trades, Apprenticeship & Renewable Technology who will help build and maintain residences for the athletes.

The 2015 Pan Am Games run from July 10 to 26 followed by the Parapan Am Games, which run from August 7 to 15.
