As part of a relatively new Homecoming tradition at žž State (established during žž State's 2011 Homecoming), couples who found love during their time as students here celebrate their love with a kiss while standing near the "K" on the bricks near the žž Student Center and the University Library.

Each year, the žž's Division of Philanthropy and Alumni Engagement sends out a call for nominations for "honorary couples" to share their žž State love stories.
