Step Into Your Spartan Spirit
York College's Rock the Socks program invites students to design their best YCP-themed socks!
A vote is then held to select the favorite design — and the winning sock is created for distribution to all student donors who make a gift of $10 or more.
Sock design submissions are open now until the contest closes on Sunday, February 2, 2025.
