The University of 㽶ƵAPP – Fort Smith’s semi-annual Long Night Against Procrastination (LNAP) event returns from 4-9 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 4 throughout the Boreham Library. 

This semester’s theme is Great Gatsby, or the Roaring Twenties, complete with a speakeasy “mocktail hour” featuring themed dirty sodas and pub mix.  

The LNAP is a collaboration between the Boreham Library, Academic Success Center, TRIO STEM, Babb Center for Career Services, Student Government Association, and First-Generation Student Group. The goal of the LNAP is to “provide a united student success support system to serve students in a holistic manner by addressing their physical, emotional, mental, and academic needs in an inviting atmosphere,” said Roxy Wylie, student success librarian. 

Wylie said that surveys from previous LNAP events show that UAFS students consider the evening a place to de-stress and a fun experience to get academic help. This semester, students will again have a chance to win door prizes ranging from Lions Cash to a certificate for graduation regalia every half hour starting at 5 p.m., grab some snacks, meet with professors, play video games, or cuddle with kittens and puppies.
