So in a very unscientific way (read: quick google search) I came up with these numbers on current college relationships. Some 13% of recent grads say that college helped them find their spouse.1 However some 63% of female students said that they believed they would find their future spouse while at college.2 There's obviously some discrepency here, but the real truth is that women aren't going to universities to get their M.R.S. (Thankgod!)
Sometimes it feels like there's a "senior scramble" as graduation nears where people who've been dating suddenly get engaged, or people who were casual feel the need to get serious and job hunt in the same market so they can move in together. But as you go to all these weddings you're still sitting with your girlfriends and the truth is that most of you are dating or not dating out in the real world. And it's a helluva lot more different than dating in college was.
