President & Vice-Chancellor Mamdouh Shoukri has issued this invitation to the York community:
As a University with a community spirit that is second to none, let’s show the world our York pride by wearing red, white, or York gear on Nov. 14.
There will be a spirit rally, York Spirit competitions and a free student spirit breakfast hosted by the York Federation of Students.
Drop by the Student Centre at 12pm to honour our athletes and celebrate their achievements. We will also be announcing the winner of the “This is My Time” free tuition contest.
The Red & White Day Prize Patrol will be out on the lookout. If you are seen wearing Red, White or York University gear, you could be a lucky winner! Visit Vari Hall or the Breezeway (Glendon) for prize giveaways and tattoos, as well as photos with the mascots.
The York University Bookstore (Keele and Glendon locations) will be selling all red and white giftware and clothing at 25 per cent off regular priced merchandise and the Pride Shop in Tait McKenzie will have selected items at 10 per cent off.
I look forward to seeing all of you on Red & White Day!
