Call it a millennial thing: Online dating is now, more or less, an acceptable way to meet someone. For college students, it makes sense.

Online dating provides an intuitive solution, complete with matrices that calculate who your best matches are based on personality. Plus there’s the added convenience of being able to browse dating options in the comfort of your own home — preferably in a pair of sweatpants.
