| | University of York - Colleges (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12) |
 | | There are currently eight colleges at York: Alcuin, Derwent, Goodricke, Halifax, James, Langwith, Vanbrugh and Wentworth. |
 | | The colleges break down the University community into smaller societies which allow their members to get to know each other more easily and within which there is the opportunity for contact both formally and informally between individuals of all ages and occupations in the University. |
 | | Many academic departments have their headquarters in one of the colleges, but the college community is nevertheless a deliberate mixture of disciplines, years and sexes. |
