With students from different counties, states and even countries, York College is an incredibly diverse and unique place. Although each person on this campus is different, every student can relate to and understand what makes York stand out from every other school.
1. Yorktown Pizza is just a lost memory to you, or if you’re a freshman, a mystical legend that upperclassmen talk about constantly (RIP to the greatest place to get a pizza at 1 a.m.)
2. You know that Dr. G-S is hands down the coolest college president out there (I mean what other president would dance with the college’s Dance Team?).
3. You can brag about Maya Angelou coming to speak on campus (Truly inspiring).
Â
4. You’re the only one of your high school friends that can say that your college’s football team has been undefeated since 1787 (Bonus points if you have the t-shirt!).
5. You spend the entire week looking forward to Fritter Fridays on West (And are willing to wait in line for the deep fried goodness).
Â
6. And Tot Tuesday is the best thing to happen to you (A cup of tots for $1? Sign me up!).
Â
7. You have a ton of respect for whoever runs the school’s official Twitter account (some of those gems are hilarious).
8. You have mixed feelings about Screamer, the new mascot (Truth is, you miss Sparty, but you can’t help but love that big green monster. Even if he is terrifying).
9. You are used to carrying an umbrella every day and you’ve found a way to make rain boots work with every outfit (seriously, it rains a lot here).
Â
10. Regardless of what your opinion is on Greek Life, the campus looks pretty awesome when all the rush boards are out.Â
11. You instantly lose respect for someone if they’re mean to Elsie or any of the other sweet ladies who swipe you in at Johnson.
Â
12. Your ID picture is probably the worst picture ever taken of you (why must we have it for four years?).
13. You wait all winter for spring to come just so the fountain gets turned back on.
Â
14. And someone always puts bubbles in it (which you secretly love).
15. You’ve become used to the smell of paper mill in the morning, but still gag whenever you go outside.
Â
16. And no matter how crazy or stressful it may be, there’s no school you’d rather call home.Â
