James College

The seventh college and the first college not originally envisioned at the University of York. The college was named after the first Vice-Chancellor, Lord James of Rusholme. Construction work begain in late 1989 and the first three accommodation blocks (A, B & C) along with the lakeside JCR opened in 1992 and were built forming a quad. Further accommodation blocks were added starting in 1993 with D, E & F, forming a second quad and in 2000 a further 6 blocks (G, H, J, K, L & M) along with the Psychology department. James expanded again in 2009, taking over some of the buildings that had formerly been part of Goodricke College when it moved to Heslington East, including the nucleus (gaining the college its first bar) along with the old Goodricke C block, (renowned as the worst accommodation York has to offer) which was renamed as block N.
