Spartan Shoutouts: Spring 2021

February 25, 2021

Embracing Kindness Across Campus, Through the Spartan Oath

Upholding the values of the Spartan Oath in everyday life is no easy task, especially as life throws out new challenges each day.

This spring, York College is honoring a few of our very own Spartans who implement and practice the values, responsibility, and integrity that make up a York College Spartan in every aspect of their life. It’s true what they say: “A little act of kindness goes a long way.”

Next time you are on campus, hold the door open for the person behind you, leave a kind note on your RA’s door, or buy a coffee for the next person in line – these little acts of kindness, will make someone’s day. And you never know, you might just be featured on the next Spartan Shoutout!

On behalf of the entire York College community, we want to thank the students listed below for demonstrating the values of the Spartan Oath. Your kindness and integrity does not go unnoticed.
