The Late Night Campus Events program was started after hearing from students that they wanted more opportunities to be social without alcohol on the weekends. The program has ranged from large-scale events hosted by campus to small events hosted by student groups. Currently, Health Education and Promotion offers small grants to registered student organization who would like to host a social event. These events can, but do not need to, take place on campus.
