I know that this sounds like something out of The Eggplant, but trust me, it’s real. If you are currently without a Valentine, take a break from studying on Thursday at nine and go snag yourself a date! Maybe you’ll find the love of your life or maybe this will just be a much-needed chance for you and your wing women to de-stress and get to know some fellow ‘Noles. We’ve all seen those speed dating scenes in movies, and we’d be lying if we said we never wished we could try. So here’s your chance Collegiettes, go get ‘em! (Maybe you’ll even get a free latte out of it!)
