Cultural Writing. Women's Studies. Edited by The York Stories Collective. YORK STORIES is a collection of interviews and first-person narratives of women at York University (Toronto) -- Canada's fourth largest university, with the distinction of having the most diverse student population. While examining the "chilly climate" that women students and teachers often face in the academic environment, YORK STORIES also acknowledges and celebrates the inroads women have made within the Canadian universities over the last thirty years. The contributors to YORK STORIES come from diverse racial, cultural, class and generational backgrounds. Their words should be of interest to all concerned about the state of higher education and about the related issues of access, equity and pluralism in higher education.
