"Black love is not just about the two people in the relationship, it's about the community that surrounds them.”

Sharing the love stories of our alumni who met at Fort Valley State University can help inspire current students and highlight the lasting bonds that can form during college years. In the month of February, we’re going to feature stories from a variety of alumni, sharing how they met, their journey through college, and how their relationship evolved after graduation.

Each couple is asked to provide a written, photographs or video profile and they are to share:

  • How they met: Was it in class, during an event, or through mutual friends?

  • Their time at FVSC/FVSU: Did they have shared interests or experiences on the Yard? Were there special memories they created while at school?

  • Post-graduation journey: How did they maintain their relationship after college, and what role did FVSC/FVSU play in their growth as a couple?

  • Advice for current students: What wisdom would they share with today’s students about love, relationships, and balancing school life?
