Panther Days and Songfest on the Horizon

April will see lots of extra activity and visitors on the York College campus as we host our annual spring Panther Days, April 6 and 7.

Panther Days is a showcase weekend where prospective students and their parents have an opportunity to see what York College has to offer, such as athletic and performing arts events, as well as campus tours and classroom visits. It also serves as a second Homecoming, as many alumni return to campus to take part in the events.
