 Conversation hearts: People you sit next to in your lectures.

You have their snaps, engage in small talk, but probably nothing more.

Fun dip: Your closest buddies.

Not only were these the OG valentines to receive in elementary school, but these represent the most elite of them all: your true homies.

Cinnamon jelly hearts: Kerri Benson, KU J-school professor.

Looks sweet, but full of spice. If you’ve had any of her classes, you know.

Jellybeans: Those you went to high school with (who you avoid any interaction with). 

Like jellybeans, worn out and overrated. (Disclaimer: not all high school-turned-college classmates are this way, but some can have no chill at times and you may want to just distance yourself for a while.)

Chocolate covered strawberries: The roommates.

Rare and savory. Plus, you can only have a few before you’re over it.

Box of chocolates: Professors.

You never know which one/what type you’re about to spend a semester with, but you’re hoping for the best.
