York University is my alma mater. I split my time between the main campus and Glendon College…read more I recently learned that alma mater refers to the educational institution where you completed your undergraduate degree, and not your graduate degree. I have no idea what you call the place where you got your master's degree. If you know, please share. I didn't learn that during my time doing any of my degrees... haha! I recently returned to York to take part in CRAM's inaugural learning sessions that were held at four different universities in Toronto. The panel discussion about Regent Park and the music program for youth was inspiring. The soundpainting was completely unexpected, but mesmerizing to hear, watch, and learn. These learning sessions were free and were held at Vari Hall. Even though it has been ages since I revisited the main campus, which has changed a ton, I got thrown back to when I was an undergraduate student. For this event, only the single-stall, unisex washrooms were available on the main floor of Vari Hall. Considering that there are a decent number of people attending these sessions, there weren't enough washrooms to accommodate everyone. Instead, I walked over to Ross Building (it's connected to Vari Hall), where the women's washroom has six stalls. I am assuming that there are an equal number of stalls for men. It's a knowledge advantage that former and current York students have over folks who are visiting the campus for the first time. There should have been a sign pointing folks to other washroom facilities. The campus has improved a ton since I was an undergraduate. There are far more places to eat. It isn't narrowed down to the old food court and whatever is edible at York Lanes. There is a decent variety of foods, from Thai to East Indian. There's even a Shopsy's! York Lanes also has a Shoppers Drug Mart. When I needed over-the-counter medication or snacks as a student, I had to get some off-campus. When I left at around 10:30 pm, there were a few eateries, Second Cup, and Shoppers all open at York Lanes. Nice! I like the York University subway station. It's modern, pleasing to the eye, and convenient. I used to take two buses to get to to my classes and wished that I had this subway station back in the day. Instead, I ended up learning the art of studying and napping on public transit, which has served me well over the years. I never lived in residence, so my experience is likely different and more positive than those who deem the campus boring. I did an undergraduate degree in computer science and math. I did a number of math classes at Vari Hall and Ross Building. For one of the CRAM sessions, I was in the same lecture hall where I took Linear Algebra parts 1 and 2 one summer. Gone are the desks with pull-out chairs. Instead, stadium seating with moving tray tables have been installed. As technology has evolved, so have the lecterns! The old, basic one in Vari Hall A has been replaced with a massive one with ports and cables. I had a flood of memories the other night. I had a wonderful undergraduate experience at York University. I made decent friendships with both peers and professors. I learned so much about the domains that I majored in as well as the person that I grew to become. York University paid for some of my degree and I am thankful for the finanical help. I have been fortunate to pay it forward now that I am an alumna. After the sessions were over, I took a walk around the Common area. I liked the small arches that were cheerfully lit. The stroll was nice on a warm Spring evening. Upgrades have come a long way. Well done! I need to remind myself to drop by more often. It's nice to reminisce and see all the exciting changes that have happened at my alma mater. I also want a York University sweatshirt after window-browsing the merchandise at the York University Bookstore. (125)

I'm still friends with some of the people I went to school with. The food is good but WAY over priced.

I am a graduate of Fashion Business Industry F112 Program…read more I am currently enrolled and in my last semester/completing the International Fashion Development and Management Program F402. This review will focus on the professors I have enjoyed being taught by. My absolute favourite professors have been: Ingrid Wagemans - Ethics In the Fashion Industry This professor has spunk and energy like no other. She uses humor in her lectures however she does not sugar coat anything, which I like. She uses a variety of teaching methods that are interesting and helpful. Kate Lamorie - Business Planning for the Entrepeneur The sweetest professor in the entire world. She truly cares about every student but somehow manages to be fair with everyone. She is knowledgeable, approachable and extremely helpful when it comes to asking any questions. Michel Shah- Project Management - Communication Across Cultures Michel is an amazing charismatic, inspirational teacher. I have honestly never worked harder for any classes in my life than I did for her's and my marks proved as such. She challenged the class in every class, assignment, and test. She tested your application of the material studied, not your ability to memorize terms. Her job/educational background is phenominal & yet she still is 100% personable. She asks for feed back all the time which is helpful for not only the students but her as well. Inspirational because she has proven to us that with hard work, discipline, comes respect and ultimatley success. Aldo Forgione- International Trade Agreements & Business Law He is all over the place when he teaches which almost forces you to pay attention. He has a great deal of knowledge and if you pay attention in his classes, you will learn a lot. Jane Rotering- Logistics Professor (all 3 years) She has in depth knowledge of logistics, which seems like a dull topic but somehow between her lectures, videos, physical examples, guest speakers, and warehouse feild trips, she makes it fascinating. Because of her, I am considering this feild as a career that I never thought possible. No one is afraid to participate in her class because she is very compassionate when it comes to incorrect answers or people curious to learn more. Overall an amazing professor. Majority of the professors have extremely impressive backgrounds but these are my favourite because they have all challenged me, taught me, and ultimatley helped me to better grow and understand the courses beyond what the books say. I can honestly recommend Georgebrown to anyone and everyone who is driven and wants to succeed. I would like to personally thank these professors for teaching me what I know and inspiring me to work hard.

I went to George Brown College for the one year Chef Training program and my experience was so/so…read more I had minimal knowledge going in but came out with a good foundation for cooking, but that foundation was also tainted by cynical Chefs. There were times I felt I was learning more from Barefoot Contessa (Ina Gardner) from the Food Channel and her cookbooks. One of my big complaints was that there was no consistency in the program. Each Chef (Teachers) had their own idea of how we should learn things and if the Chef that trained you was ever absent during grading you were screwed. The Chefs themselves were jaded, which didn't reflect positively for the College. Majority of the complaints about the college came from the chef's themselves! I didn't feel like I got my money's worth with George Brown. For 6 months we went without beef or chicken stock and had to use a low-grade replacement (chicken and beef stock were a basis for many recipes, so it'd be like not having salt in the kitchen). In the desserts/pastry course we had to pay for our own food, that's on top of tuition fees. I never understood the logic behind it, seeing as the students were doing the labor and paid for the food already through tuition. It was things like that that annoyed me about George Brown. On a positive note, GB gave me more confidence in the kitchen. I didn't have a good understanding of how to properly cook meat and I wasn't that willing to experiment in the kitchen. After GB I had more confidence in myself to try different dishes and can cook a nice filet.

My experience with this school started off well, I initially spoke with Aida, who was professional,…read morehelpful, and a pleasure to deal with. Unfortunately, Aida was moved to another department? thats when Rosa became involved. Rosa claimed to have screenshots of my conversation with Aida, despite the fact that our discussion took place entirely over the phone, a claim that is both confusing and impossible. When I attempted to clarify this, Rosa NEVER replied. Rosa is unprofessional and unpleasant to deal with and clearly not competent in handling the situation. It's disappointing to see such a lack of professionalism, especially after a promising start. After reading other reviews that mention similar concerns, it seems this kind of experience is not uncommon. I've requested to speak directly with the School Manager to address this properly and NEVER heard back. This is not the kind of treatment anyone should expect from an educational institution.
