Some love stories fall right into placE
Matthew Grapstul '15 caught my eye on move-in day
freshman year, but we didn't start dating until our senior year.
We got engaged at "our bench" near Lake Sylva in 2018.
— VICTORIA SWIFT-GRAPSTUL '14, MAT '15
I saw Dave Washington '91 in the lobby of
Travers/Wolfe in 1990, and I told a sorority
sister he was the one I was going to marry.
Love at first sight for sure.
— KIM SHUSTACK-WASHINGTON '91
We were close friends as members of Zeta Beta Tau. But we lost touch
after graduation. We reunited at a fraternity picnic in 2005 and have been
together ever since. We were married at the Spiritual Center on campus
and had our reception in Eickhoff Hall.
— BRANDON '91 AND BONNIE '94 ROSE
Jamal Johnson '01 (center)
officiated Victoria and Matthew's
wedding. The couple says he
was responsible for bringing
each of them to TCNJ
as EOF students, too.
