I know this question wasn't directed at me, but my chapter only had a few candlepasses in my four years there, for a couple of reasons. First, people at my school didn't "lavalier" or "pin" each other. Second, maybe this is a regional thing, but I don't know many people that got engaged in college. That's considered a young age to get engaged/married at now. My sisters had serious boyfriends, but hardly any of them would have considered getting married in college or right afterward. They were too busy with school, and most probably considered themselves "too young."

That's true. It may be a regional thing. I always forget that the Southern part of the US tends to have a lower marriage age than the national average.

I just got married at the beginning of this month, and I'm turning 24 in a few days. By the standards of my high school, I'm a bit old- many of my old high school classmates already have children!

It's really not at all abnormal around here to be getting married shortly after college.
