Toronto Metropolitan University’s School of Graphic Communications Management held its annual GCM Awards night in Toronto on Nov. 17. The School of Graphic Communications is Canada’s only degree-granting program for the printing industries. Members of the Canon Canada team attended to present Canon sponsored awards to two high-achieving students.

“Scholarships go directly toward supporting students during their studies,” says Natalia Lumby, an associate professor and the Chair in Graphic Communications Management at The Creative School. “With the financial support from Canon, recipients can spend more time focused on their discipline. Moreover, students feel the support of their broader professional community through long-standing partnerships like this one. More often than not, on awards night you are shaking the hand of a past grad. That in and of itself is so rewarding. I’m thrilled to see that Canon continues to benefit from hiring GCM grads, and continues to give back to that community.”
