ASUN Student Government has applications open for leadership positions on both the executive team and the operations staff. Applications close Feb. 11. The Big Event - slated for April 23, 2022 - is an annual one-day-of-service organized by UNL students to say “Thank You” to the Lincoln community.

The Big Event has taken place at the University of Nebraska–Lincoln since 2006. Originally started at Texas A&M University in 1982, The Big Event has since been adopted by scores of colleges and universities across the United States.

Student volunteers will help local Lincoln organizations and private residences with acts of service, like painting hours and walls, cleaning garages, raking leaves and more.
