7 HISTORY OF YORK UNIVERSITY HISTOIRE DE L UNIVERSITÉ YORK York University was founded in March 1959, when its charter was approved by the legislature of the Province of Ontario, and enrolled its first class of 76 students in September York was originally established as an affiliate of the University of Toronto, but became independent by mutual consent in October York University moved from Falconer Hall (on Queen s Park Crescent near the Parliament Buildings) to the Glendon campus in 1961 and each succeeding year has seen a major advance in growth. In 1962, the Joseph E. Atkinson College first offered degree courses for evening and part-time students. In 1963, the Faculty of Arts and Science introduced its own distinctive program of degree studies and the Faculty of Graduate Studies was established. The University accepted its first postgraduate students in The Keele campus, which became the principal seat of the University, was opened at Keele Street and Steeles Avenue in In the following year, Glendon College was officially opened and the Faculty of Administrative Studies (now the Schulich School of Business) was established at the Keele campus. In 1967, the Senate enacted legislation to establish a Faculty of Fine Arts. In 1968, the Faculty of Environmental Studies was established and the Osgoode Hall Law School became the Faculty of Law of the University (under the terms of an agreement which had been entered into with the Law Society of Upper Canada in 1965). A Faculty of Science was created in 1969 by separating biology, chemistry and physics from the Faculty of Arts and Science, which then became the Faculty of Arts. In 1971, the Senate approved the establishment of the Faculty of Education. In 2000, Joseph E. Atkinson College was renamed the Joseph E. Atkinson Faculty of Liberal and Professional Studies. In 1990, the Faculty of Science was renamed the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science and subsequently, in 2004, became the Faculty of Science and Engineering. In 2006, the Faculty of Health was approved which brought together Nursing, Health Policy and Management, Kinesiology and Health Science, and Psychology. In 2009, York University continued this tradition with the launch of the Faculty of Liberal Arts and Professional Studies, combining the strengths of the Joseph E. Atkinson Faculty of Liberal and Professional Studies and the Faculty of Arts. In 2012, York University s Senate approved the establishment of a new Faculty, named the Lassonde School of Engineering. The non-faculty colleges appeared annually after 1964: Founders (1965), Vanier (1966), Winters (1967), McLaughlin (1968), Stong (1969), Calumet (1970), Norman Bethune (1971) and New (2009). York University now graduates approximately 10,000 students annually. Fondée en mars 1959, date à laquelle le Parlement de l Ontario a approuvé sa charte, l Université York a ouvert sa première classe avec soixante-dix-sept étudiants en York, qui était au départ affiliée à l Université de Toronto, a pris son indépendance par consentement mutuel en Octobre Elle a quitté Falconer Hall (Queen s Park Crescent) pour le campus de Glendon en 1961, et a franchi chaque année une nouvelle étape décisive. En 1962, le Collège Joseph E. Atkinson a offert aux étudiants à temps partiel les premiers cours du soir menant à l obtention d un grade. En 1963, la Faculté des arts et des sciences a créé à son tour des programmes d études sanctionnés par l octroi d un grade et la Faculté des études supérieures a été fondée. Les premiers programmes d études supérieures ont été offerts en Devenu depuis le siège principal de l Université, le campus de York, au croisement de la rue Keele et de l avenue Steeles, a été inauguré en L année suivante a vu l ouverture officielle du Collège universitaire Glendon et la création de la Faculté d administration (maintenant l École Schulich des hautes études commerciales) sur le campus de York. En 1967, le Sénat a décidé la création de la Faculté des beaux-arts. En 1968, la Faculté des études environnementales a été créée et l École de droit Osgoode Hall est devenue la Faculté de droit de l Université (aux termes d un accord passé avec la Société de droit du Haut Canada en 1965). En 1969, la Faculté des sciences et des arts s est scindée en Faculté des sciences, chargée de l enseignement de la biologie, de la chimie et de la physique, et en Faculté des arts. En 1971, le Sénat a approuvé la création de la Faculté des sciences de l éducation. En 2000, le Collège Joseph E. Atkinson a pris le nom de Faculté des études libérales et professionnelles Joseph E. Atkinson. En 1990, la Faculté de sciences a pris le nom de Faculté des sciences pures et appliquées et par la suite, en 2004 devint la Faculté des sciences et de l ingénierie. La faculté de la santé, approuvée en 2006, regroupe les programmes de soins infirmiers, de politique et administration de la santé, de kinésiologie et sciences de la santé et de psychologie. En 2009, l Université York a perpétué sa tradition en créant la Faculté des arts libéraux et études professionnelles qui combine les atouts de la Faculté des études libérales et professionnelles Joseph E. Atkinson et de la Faculté des arts. En 2012, le sénat de l Université York a approuvé l établissement d une nouvelle faculté, nommée l École de génie Lassonde. Enfin, les Collèges qui ne sont pas des Facultés ont fait leur apparition à un rythme annuel après 1964 : Founders (1965), Vanier (1966), Winters (1967), McLaughlin (1968), Stong (1969), Calumet (1970), Norman Bethune (1971) et New (2009). L Université York décerne des diplômes à environ dix mille étudiants par an. October 2014 Convocation / 7

8 THE MACE The mace, which the University Beadle carries, was a gift to York University from the City of Toronto in Each part of the mace has symbolic significance for the University. Rendered in brass, the end section is set with stones of cullet, bloodstone, agate and amazonite which represent all ethnic sources of Canada. The shoulder has 10 projections representing Canada s provinces. The four arms at the head of the mace represent the paths which lead to the ideals that humans strive to achieve. The arms support an orb whose shape reflects the universe and its truths. The orb is executed in the colours of earth and water: brown, ochre, blue and green. LA MASSE D ARMES La masse que porte le massier de l université a été offerte en 1964 par la ville de Toronto à l Université York. Chaque partie de la masse a une signification symbolique pour l université. La masse est en laiton et sa partie inférieure est sertie de pierres taillées : hématite, agate et amazonite, qui représentent toutes les origines ethniques du Canada. Les dix projections de la partie supérieure représentent les dix provinces du Canada. Les quatre bras, au sommet de la masse, représentent les sentiers de la connaissance et des idéaux que s efforce de suivre l humanité. Les bras soutiennent une sphère représentant l univers et ses vérités. Le globe a les couleurs de la terre et de l eau : le brun, l ocre, le bleu et le vert. 8 / October 2014 Convocation

10 YORK UNIVERSITY L UNIVERSITÉ YORK A first task of York University will be to use the great traditional subjects to shed light on the problems of today s world No one in his right mind would today oppose the need for a high degree of specialization. But to have specialization and nothing else is to possess but half an education we shall try to break down the barriers of specialization, to give to York University students a sense of the unity of knowledge. York s Founding President Murray Ross, 1960 «La première mission de l Université York consistera à appliquer les grandes disciplines traditionnelles pour mieux comprendre les problèmes actuels...de nos jours, personne sain d esprit ne mettrait en doute la nécessité de posséder une spécialisation de haut niveau. Pourtant, avoir une spécialisation et rien d autre ne revient qu à posséder une demi éducation...c est pourquoi nous tenterons d abolir les barrières de la spécialisation, afin de donner aux étudiants de l Université York un sentiment d unification des connaissances.» Murray Ross, président fondateur de l Université York, 1960 Since its inception in 1959, York University has become worldrenowned for its unique interdisciplinary approach to teaching and research. An education at York University provides an interdisciplinary perspective and a modern approach to the issues facing today s world. York is where students and faculty from differing disciplines join together to explore problems to the fullest possible extent. The result is a dynamic, all-round perspective that corresponds closely to the world we live in.
