The Yorker takes a look back at some of the major events which hit the headlines in the academic year that was 2007-2008.
Former University of York student Neil Entwistle was sentenced today in the US to life in prison without parole for killing his wife and daughter.
For the second season in a row, York University 1sts will be promoted.
Dominic O'Shea's men beat off Leeds 2-1 in a thrilling match yesterday afternoon.
York will next season move into the battleground of the top 24 university teams in the north of the UK.
The game was attended by over 40 fans - a big turnout in university terms. Yorker sports editor Chris Collinson said the match went down to the wire, but our men deserved to win.

The yorker has changed its policy to include sports stories which are worthy of front page news in themselves to be included in this section.
"York will next season move into the battleground of the top 24 university teams in the UK."
That can't be true, surely? They've just won Northern Conference 3B.
No it's not, because there is the BUSA prem in the north and south, as well there being separate BUSA one leagues in the north, south, midlands etc.
That's right. York will be competing as one of the top 24 teams in the North of the country only. But then again, York won't ever be able to compete in the Southern leagues, so we can't really compare! The article, however, has been amended.
Nice slip up by saying Leeds 3rd for the last few hours; quality reporting from the Yorker.
and at the start of the season Vision tipped us for relegation!
Both fine institutions... I'd say Vision shade it, but really it's like comparing knives and forks - internet reporting and broadsheet.
why do people pick holes in reporting and debate just whether they are in the top 24 or not, congratulations is all thats needed,
really massive well done lads!
