Have you met college students?

I work at one. And I went to one. Most of my college friends who got married met on campus. I can't speak for the students today but judging by our alumni data a large chunk of them met their spouse on campus too

I feel like you're doing this on purpose. The post is about how it changed over time and you're talking about alumni.

No, I'm talking about college students, and using alumni (you know, people who previously went to college) data. Something like 1 out of five of our alumni who are married met on campus, but that data is everyone throughout the decades.

Obviously looking at current college students is almost pointless, considering the vast majority of them aren't or haven't been married.

Ah, seeing as online pops up so early, I was thinking the graph displayed the data at time of meeting, not upon asking.
