Back-to-back snowstorms won’t cancel Valentine’s Day outings for UNC Greensboro students, though they might delay things a bit.

Now that campus is digging out of what Winter Storms Fern and Gianna left behind, students are itching for activities that promote love, friendship, and self-love, whether they be serious or lighthearted.

UNCG rescheduled its events to celebrate the Season of Love. In keeping with its commitment to a culture of care, some of those activities will follow theme of Spartan Well-Being, reminding students to take the time and make sure they’re looking out for their mental and emotional needs after the bad weather knocked them out of their routine and kept them indoors, separated from friends.

Love is Blind

This game by the student group LegacyCreators is all about fun, mystery, and genuine connection. Contestants will participate in a blindfolded speed-dating experience. Participants use each round to talk, laugh, or connect without seeing each other. At the end of the rounds, each chooses the one with whom they felt the strongest connection, and then the blindfolds come off.
