Beloiters give a little love this Valentine's Day.

I adore men with big beards and girls in red cloaks. It makes me feel like I'm in a fairy tale! -

I adore my beautiful and wonderful friends! -

My girlfriend, who I met here, and everyone else at Beloit who can handle their liquor without getting really annoying. (people who don't drink are almost equally cool!). -

Sending all my love to my wonderful boyfriend, amazing friends,and the ever-ridiculous 840 community...oh,and the turtles. - webern

silly, wonderfully random conversations in Commons. And my wonderful, amazing, beautiful friends. And misguided adventures at 2:00am. And bell runs, and the hilarity of drunk people, and not-so-drunk people. And cuddle puddles. The list is endless. - joness

I adore the gentlemen who hold the doors, chivalry isn't dead! - lopezm

I adore Mona Ritter and Sara Leach. They are great friends to play volleyball with on Wednesday nights. - ritterp

I appreciate (adore) this beautiful campus. Where else can you work where everything around you is beautiful, including the people! I adore Vern Tschudy (my husband)who I met here and I adore many of my co-workers & students who I consider to be life-long friends. Happy Valentine's Day EVERYONE. - tschudyj

professors, and students who do things on time. Plus all the beloitish madness - alz

Dearest Beloit, When I first laid eyes on you, it was love at first sight. You were so open and embraced me for who I was, not like other colleges. I love that you play games Beloit, namely Chess, Munchkin, Magic, and Settlers of Cataan. You know that I may fool around with others baby, but they mean nothing to me! It's you who've got me coming back for more. I know I have to leave you, Beloit. NO- don't speak. Don't tempt me with your Writing Center way with words. It'll be better for us both if we part like this. I may wander, I may even have others later on- come now, we've never exactly been monogamous, my sweet- but I'll never forget the great moments we've shared. Even when you were so cold, your beauty shone through. You've made me a better man, Beloit. Try not to pine for me, though I may pine for you. And remember, we'll always have that Bell-Run. Yours forever, ~Susie - smelas

The Squirrels... Hands down - garcias

I adore the Beloit RAs that make me think, make me laugh, make me smile, and make me proud. - mccarthyt

TRON, the English Department, and Moose Manor loves. - huntera

I love waking up on a snowy Valentine's Day morning and seeing deliciously nerdy "Sherlock" and "Doctor Who" references chalked on the Wall while walking to breakfast <3 - fribergj

My lovely co-workers, the Beloiters who let me share their stories, and the seemingly-always-full coffee pot in our office kitchen. - vollbrechtl

I love the women who wear red capes and the men who wear Indiana Jones-esque hats. YOU are what makes Beloit--Beloit. - hedgesi

I adore you, Beloit. I love your bubble, your squirrels, your snowy walkways, your trees, your beautiful buildings, sometimes I even like the '64 halls. I love your bell runs, your weekends, your posters everywhere, your chalk, your graffiti, your music, your art, your theatre. But most of all, I love your people, the ones that give you life. The ones that laugh, and play, and hug, and study. The ones who run naked across your grounds, the ones who dance the night away in your sweaty basements, the ones who teach, who learn, and who work. I love Beloiters. - homeniukr

HUGS! All the time from beautiful wonderful people. The pure, hyper-nerd Beloit insanity.Geese. The Bunge. Walking into Java Joint and always loving the music that is playing. Ipromptu singing with random other students in the line at Commons. So Beloit, and so blissful. - dec

Steve Wright. The most genuine and kind man I know. He is dedicated to his students, his literature, and to strangers on the sidewalk in a way that is hopelessly contagious. - lawrenct

I adore breaks; spring break, fall break, winter break, summer break and so on. - leey

The Terrarium! - bohrerk

Dear Beloit, my heart beats for you with the "THUD THUD THUD" of an elephant sprinting through the African Savanna. My love for you is as durable and eternal as a turtle shell. My heart proclaims its love for you the way your students proclaim their love for nerdiness and geekiness. I would gladly join the turtle-riding-buccaneer cavalry to defend you! So please be mine this Valentine's Day. ♥ ♥ ♥ XOXOXOXO - machunskir

I love my most precious Dove, thanks for everything. You're the light in my life. - ishiik

Barak Ben-Amots. Meeting him here was one of the many great things to have happened to me here at Beloit! - bleidornm

I adore colleges that change lives. I adore colleges that practice the liberal arts. I adore colleges that put their students first in their mission statements. And, I adore colleges where turtles multiply, well, like rabbits. - biermans

I adore Campbell Plaza, where my husband and I were married, Moore Lounge where we shared prom and our wedding reception together, Middle College, which will always hold a special place in my heart (it takes my breath away every time I see it), the mounds, which add a majestic quality to campus, and all of my coworkers and the students who make Beloit - Beloit. - frisbeea

Being able to walk all over campus so easily. Fresco grill and delicious vegan desserts. Watching Avatar in Intro to Feminisms. Having my dorm room door postered every Sunday. - patersonc

My loquacious and lovely freakbitches. Always keepin me on the real. - lenertze

I adore THE TERRARIUM for sending everyone Valentines! - andersoa

Peng Yixin, my dear girlfriend. - wangw
