A team led by fourth-year communications student Heather McKenzie will be pumping up pride in the York community during the coming academic year. The group will take over leadership of York is U, the grassroots volunteer movement – now a year old – whose mission is to inspire the York community to get involved in campus life.

Under outgoing Chair Jeremy Greenberg, the founding team has worked enthusiastically throughout the University year, helping to organize such events as Frosh Week, Yorkfest, Homecoming, Multicultural Week and York’s 40th birthday. The photos on this page were taken at some of these events.
