Most students love games anyway, but turning one into a date is great, especially if you want to see all sides of someone, because we all know what Cardiac Cuse does to people.
Laying in the grass (or snow) and staring at the stars is Rom-Com worthy. It also helps to have a great view of the city and a gorgeous building behind you. Rolling down or sledding down the hill can also add more fun.

Netflix is full of different shows and movies, laying in bed on one of our million cold snowy days and ordering in or bringing back a box from the dining hall is always great when it is too cold to go out.
Take the campus shuttle down and explore the area. A nice change of scene with plenty of restaurants and some nice bakeries.
Study, flirt and eat at the cafe. Perfect date for finals or someone from your class you want to get to know. The private study rooms give you some privacy and you can talk unlike Carnegie.
Take a blanket or a towel and lay out and enjoy the sun in the spring or fall. Even if you are just waiting for your next class this is a fun place to relax for free, except snacks are usually appreciated.
