About
Established in 1967, we are one of the University of York's oldest colleges, defined by our community’s spirit of adventure and innovation as well as by our excellent welfare support network. Our aim at Alcuin is to support our members in everything they do and to help foster the positive atmosphere that will help our students make a success of their time at York.
This website is run by the Alcuin College Student Association Committee (CSAC). Although we work closely with the University of York and the University of York Students' Union, we are independent from these organisations and hence any views expressed on this website may not reflect theirs.
The CSAC is an elected group of volunteer students that organise events and activities within the College on behalf of Alcuin students. This includes organising Freshers' Week, hosting seasonal balls, designing merch and working on initiatives to improve student life at the College.
