The York University Media Awards, or YUMAs, is the campus media's annual booze filled backslap-athon, first held in 2001. [[Nouse]], [[URY]], [[Vision]], [[Cinematography Society]] and YSTV traditionally took it turns to arrange an awards evening, in which each society gave out their own awards rather than compete against other societies. In YSTV's case, this involved voting on old favourites, such as Best Show, Best Female and the like. Unlike other societies, YSTV members all have a vote on their categories (and indeed the categories chosen), rather than winners being chosen by a select group. In this respect the ceremony is a light-hearted way to end the year often including joke categories, unlike [[NaSTA]]. | The YUSU Media Awards (formerly, York University Media Awards), or YUMAs, is the campus media's annual booze filled backslap-athon, first held in 2001.

{{unsure|In recent years}} the YUMAs seem to have turned into more traditional awards, with categories being pre-selected and nominations submitted by societies, with the judging by a group of YUSU staff and students. | {{unsure|In recent years}} the YUMAs seem to have turned into more traditional awards, with categories being pre-selected and nominations submitted by societies, with the judging by a group of YUSU staff and students. | ||
