campus romance

University dating scene

A campus romance is a romantic relationship that develops between students at a school or university.

The term evokes the particular atmosphere of academic settings—chance meetings in libraries, shared classes, dormitory proximity—that foster such relationships.

Campus romance also names a genre of fiction, film, and television centered on these relationships: She spent the weekend binge-watching campus romance dramas.
