Custodial history

The York University Archives examinations collection was assembled by the Archives as part of its policy to preserve a permanent record of this method of measuring academic performance. Two copies of the examinations were received by the University Librarian's office. One set was forwarded to the York Federation of Students Office where copies were made available for a charge to students. One set was transferred to York University Archives for continuing preservation.

Scope and content

The collection documents one method used by the university to assess and evaluate what is learned by its students, and what is expected by its faculty. Because the results of these examinations are entered into the student transcript, this collection also serves to document one standard by which the academic performance of students is measured. The collection consists of hard copies of some examinations that have been given at York. The collection is extensive though incomplete. This collection does not include Glendon College or Law Library examinations.
