All of the college staff are dedicated to supporting students as they learn, grow, and lead while at York.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">For example, we provide direct support to a great many student clubs that represent various programs and departments within the Faculty of Health (e.g., Psychology, Nursing, Kinesiology, Global Health). Getting involved with these clubs is a great opportunity to meet fellow students with shared interests, and also ensure that your voice is heard within the university.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">A number of our programs are dedicated to supporting students in their courses (e.g., Peer Assisted ¿ì²¥ÊÓÆµ Sessions [PASS], the Course Representative Program), as they transition to university life, and when they begin to explore future careers. We are deeply invested in fostering important life skills among students, such as leadership (e.g., LEAD with purpose) and community engagement (e.g., Agents of Change).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Please explore more of what we have to offer here on our website, or drop by in person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:35px\"><strong>Join us and see all that we have to offer!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size: 22px; line-height: 1.5; margin-top: 40px;\"><strong>Raymond Mar<\/strong><br \/>Head of Calumet College<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1080\" height=\"1080\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/colleges\/ccsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/449\/2025\/07\/Staff-Raymond-Mar-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7466\" style=\"width:289px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/colleges\/ccsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/449\/2025\/07\/Staff-Raymond-Mar-1.png 1080w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/colleges\/ccsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/449\/2025\/07\/Staff-Raymond-Mar-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/colleges\/ccsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/449\/2025\/07\/Staff-Raymond-Mar-1-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/colleges\/ccsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/449\/2025\/07\/Staff-Raymond-Mar-1-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/colleges\/ccsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/449\/2025\/07\/Staff-Raymond-Mar-1-500x500.png 500w, https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/colleges\/ccsc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/449\/2025\/07\/Staff-Raymond-Mar-1-600x600.png 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:24px\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div style=\"height:220px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 has-custom-font-size bg-primary-2 text-white rounded-0 learnmore-block p-2 has-medium-font-size\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background no-border-radius wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/bettertogether\/\" style=\"color:#ffffff;background-color:#810001\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Welcoming YU Back Safely <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-right small pl-2\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-font-size bg-primary-2 text-white rounded-0 learnmore-block p-2 has-medium-font-size\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background no-border-radius wp-element-button\" style=\"color:#ffffff;background-color:#810001\">Mental Health at ¿ì²¥ÊÓÆµ <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-right small pl-2\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-button has-custom-width wp-block-button__width-100 has-custom-font-size bg-primary-2 text-white rounded-0 learnmore-block p-2 has-medium-font-size\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-background no-border-radius wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yorku.ca\/yustart\/\" style=\"color:#ffffff;background-color:#810001\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">YU Start Login Page <i class=\"fas fa-chevron-right small pl-2\"><\/i><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"background-color: #f5f5f5; width: 100vw; margin-left: calc(-50vw + 50%); padding: 40px 0;\">\n  <p style=\"font-size: 18px; margin: 0 auto; max-width: 1200px; text-align: center;\">\n    We at Calumet and Stong College recognize that our institution is located on traditional Indigenous territories.\n    Please take a moment to read the Land Acknowledgement which also outlines why it is an important responsibility to recognize traditional Indigenous territories.\n  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stong College Stong College is affiliated with the&nbsp;Faculty of Health, serving students from&nbsp;Kinesiology &amp; Health Science, and Nursing.&nbsp;Enriched by the Stong family pioneer spirit, to which we owe our name, our community is committed to innovation while preserving the values of diversity and inclusivity.
