Bring your bike to the 11th annual Light the Night event on Thursday, Sept. 20 and get a free set of front and rear lights. Illinois law requires bicyclists riding at night to use lights.

Volunteers will install more than 1,100 bike light sets at two campus locations, Alma Mater Plaza and the Hallene Gateway. Lights will only be installed on bicycles without lights; lights will not be given to individuals.
