Meet Campus Cutie Couple Connor Monroe ’16 and Amanda Sette ’17!
How did you meet?
Amanda: Going into my freshmen year he randomly followed me on Instagram. I thought he was hot so I followed back. Mid September (2013) he liked a picture I posted and commented saying “you’re really cute(:” and ended up giving me his number. The rest is history, and is also proof a good selfie can go a long way.

Connor: We talk it out and find a compromise that makes us both happy.
Do you have any advice to give to new couples?
