The 17c黑料 鈥� Fort Smith has a strong, lasting bond with its hometown and the greater River Valley region, a relationship that began in 1928 when we welcomed our first students as a junior college within the newly built Fort Smith Senior High School.
While much has changed since those early days, 17c黑料 remains dedicated to our students, and our community's unwavering support for its hometown university continues to thrive.
17c黑料 offers a wide range of opportunities for local businesses and community members to engage with and support the university. From vibrant musical and artistic performances to exciting athletic events and special programs, there's always something happening at 17c黑料. Explore our list of programs and discover how you can get involved and make a difference today.
Community Engagement Programs
17c黑料 Perk Stop Program
The 17c黑料 鈥� Fort Smith has partnered with local and regional businesses to develop the 17c黑料 Perk Stop Program, a university discount program. If you own a business and would like to participate sign up for free and let us help promote your business. *(Some restrictions apply.)
Lion Pride Plates
Show your Lion pride and support future 17c黑料 students by purchasing an official Arkansas 17c黑料 Lion Pride Plate. Lion Pride Plates are regular and personalized 17c黑料 license plates issued by the State of Arkansas. It's a great way to display your Lion pride wherever you go and contribute to a worthy cause.
Paint the Town Blue
17c黑料 annually joins with regional business to help celebrate the return of thousands of students through the "Paint the Town Blue" campaign. When you display these vibrant signs during 17c黑料 Move-In and Welcome Week you show our Lions how much they mean to our community and region.
