On any given afternoon, most of the plush, floral-patterned couches and window seats in the Adell McMillan Gallery are covered with students, sprawled out taking naps in between classes. But the EMU closes at 11:30 p.m., so while it's not uncommon for students to sleep in the building, they don't typically spend the night. Unless emuLAN is taking place.

"Last year, there were people draped across tables, underneath computers, using extension cords as pillows," remembered University senior Aaron Parecki, one of the annual event's organizers.

emuLAN is a UO Cultural Forum-hosted local area network (LAN) party, a gathering of people who network their computers together to play games. Taking place in the EMU Ballroom on Feb. 15, emuLAN is 24 hours of video games, tournaments, socializing, snacks and prizes.
