Sigma Alpha Epsilon members Parker Low, Joe Cooley, Clay Fiolo, Bryson Metcalf and Matt Bruning work during the 2016 Big Event project. The 2017 event is April 8.

Registration is open for The Big Event, a day of service that allows University of Nebraska–Lincoln students the opportunity to give back to the entire Lincoln community.

Organized by the Association of Students of the University of Nebraska, the event is April 8. More than 3,000 students, faculty and staff are expected to participate.

The volunteer registration form for students and staff is open through March 17.

On the day of the event, volunteers will arrive at the City Campus recreation center at 8 a.m. for breakfast. Following breakfast, volunteer groups will be released to their job sites to work from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Afterwards, volunteers will return to the rec center for a free lunch.
