Important People about James College
Most of our students enjoy their stay in York and encounter no problems beyond those of normal day to day living. Many students however do encouter problems which they cannot resolve on their own. Many will be minor, some very serious indeed. The university offers avenues of support and a comprehensive list appears in the welfare booklet. Here in the College we have our very own resident welfare team and each year we help students to find solutions to problems that vary from minor difficulties to life threatening emergencies. Our team consist of the following:- College Provost  This is our new James College Provost, Dr Neil Lunt of the York Management
School. He has joined James College after the retirement of the colleges' first
and only Provost, Ken Todd. However, Ken's departure has served a great
oppurtunity for James College to modernise in new directions. Neil has
expressed a certain interest in the promoting of block culture within the
college as well as the improvement of college sports.
