Faculty and staff get into the Red & White Day spirit
It’s that time of year again – time to show your #YUSpirit at Red & White Day!
On Tuesday, March 22, I invite all students, staff, faculty and alumni to join in the celebration and wear red and white or York gear to show your pride and passion for this great University.
This year, campus partners from across the University have come together to organize an incredible array of activities taking place on our Keele and Glendon campuses. This is the perfect time for us to show the world what we love about York, and to celebrate our achievements.
