HOW WE MET // RYANN PINNEY & TONY CAMPBELL > All great relationships had to start somewhere.
You could say that a bathrobe played matchmaker for Ryann Pinney, a senior from Springfield, Mo., and Tony Campell, an alumnus from Overland Park. After all, if Campbell hadn't lent his friend his bathrobe, then the couple might not have met.
"It was the first week of classes, and I was riding down an elevator in McCollum," Pinney says. "There was a guy on it wearing a bathrobe. I thought it was funny, so I commented on it and struck up a conversation. We both happened to be going to E's to eat lunch, and I didn't know anybody at school, really, so I asked to sit with him. Tony was at that table."

The two hung out as friends for the first month but the couple knew that a romantic relationship was inevitable.
"I thought she was fun," Campbell says."She laughed at my jokes, and that mattered."
Four years later, Pinney and Campbell are happier than ever. They made the decision to move in together and have learned to appreciate each other. The couple loves dancing and hosting game nights for friends.
After Pinney graduates, she hopes to become a high school math teacher, but wherever that job takes her, the couple plans on moving and settling down together.
And what happened to the catalytic bathrobe? "We still have it; it's hanging up in our room," Pinney says. "It's mine now."

With campus back in full swing, sometimes it can be difficult for students to take a step back and appreciate all they have in life. Associate Professor and Coordinator of the Arabic Studies Program, Naima Boussofara believes that Ramadan helps students reflect and connect with who they are.
"Sometimes we get caught up
"Even though Ramadan is for Muslims, I believe it shares the same values with other religions," Boussofara said. "There is a bigger openness and understanding. We are a community; the world is much bigger than us, than self."
