UAF’s annual Party in the Park returns on Thursday, Aug. 27, from noon to 3 p.m. in Constitution Park. This lively, campus-wide celebration kicks off the fall semester by welcoming new and returning students to the Nanook community.
Party in the Park showcases everything that makes UAF unique: its programs, services, student organizations and the people who make campus such a welcoming place. All UAF departments, offices and student organizations are encouraged to reserve a table to share information, resources and engaging activities with students. Whether you're handing out giveaways, hosting a game or simply introducing students to your services, your participation helps create meaningful connections.
This event is one of the first opportunities for students to discover campus resources, explore ways to get involved and find their place at UAF. By participating, you'll help create a fun, inclusive atmosphere that encourages students to connect, engage and start the semester with confidence.
Join the celebration and showcase what your department, office or organization has to offer. Reserve your table today and help make this year's Party in the Park an unforgettable welcome to the new academic year!
