What is it?<\/h2>\n

Starting Wednesday, March 18th, at 7:00pm and running until Thursday, March 19th, at 2:00am, the Long Night Against Procrastination is a free, extended-hours event providing a safe place for students to study\/write during a critical point in the semester. The event takes place in the Brandon University Library<\/a> (Main & Music), the Indigenous Peoples\u2019 Centre<\/a> (IPC) and Student Accessibility Services<\/a> (SAS).\u00a0 The main floor of the library will be a hum of activity, while the second floor will be reduced-noise zones (note:\u00a0 sound from the main floor does travel up the stairwell).<\/p>\n

Reference librarians and assistants, writing coaches, learning skills coaches, computer help and circulation service will be available throughout the event to work with you to help you make progress with your papers and assignments.<\/p>\n

Stay for the entire event or come for just a few hours. We do recommend that you plan your ride home in advance (last bus pick-up is at 11:18pm). There is also a Safe Walk Program, provided by Brandon Bear Clan, to safely walk you to the bus stop, your residence building or vehicle parked at BU.
