7. Rock Arch, Bryn Mawr, PA, Bryn Mawr College



There is a common saying that, if it happens twice at Bryn Mawr, it's a tradition. The college alums can attest to this. There are many traditions that the school still respects to date. The Moon Bench for instance is at the end of senior row. As the story goes, if sweethearts sit together on this bench they will eventually break up. Since 1989 the legend has eased up to the norm that you can't kiss someone while seated on the bench. The converse of that spot is the Rock Arch, under which you can kiss and ensure a lasting relationship.

5. Lover's Lane, Clemson, SC, Clemson University



Clemson University is a jack of all trades when it comes to tradition: gathering on Bowman Field, running down "The hill," "Tiger Rag" and many more. But perhaps the most romantic is the Lover's Lane, which holds that a stroll through President's Park with your sweetie is a sure sign that an engagement ring is in your future!

3. Shoe Tree, Murray, KY, Murray State University



Just a small distance from Pogue Library, the Shoe Tree sits in the sun with at least 50 pairs of mismatched shoes attached to it. No one in MSU has any idea when the Shoe Tree began but that has not hindered them from honoring the tradition. It is believed that if two students meet at Murray State, fall in love and then marry, they will have good luck only if they both nail a shoe to the Shoe Tree. Lovers make it a habit to write their anniversaries in their shoes as well. It is also common for people to return to nail a baby's shoe to show that they have started a family. Today's Shoe Tree is the second after the first was hit by lightning and subsequently caught fire.
