Fellow Collegiates™, we all know that our campus is filled with some good looking guys, but how do we know if they are taken, what their interests are, or if they want the girl to make the first move? Well you’ve come to the right spot to find out all about our hottest hunks. I spotted Pat Merritt, and his adorable smile ranked him as a definite Campus Cutie. Pat is a huge fan of the Chicago Bears and Bulls. He loves playing football, basketball, and wakeboarding. On the weekends you can find him hitting up Rookies and chilling with the guys.

What is the Sexiest Thing a Girl Can Wear: A T-shirt.
Traits Looked For in a Girl: Humility is an important trait to me, because it annoys me when people think that they are better than everyone else around them. I never seem to get along with people like that. I also like girls who like to do active things. It is a major turn-on for me when a girl is athletic. I also love dogs and that is another trait I love in girls. I like all animals and creatures in general, but a girl liking dogs is a must.
Do You Like When a Girl Makes the First Move: Yes. I think that most guys feel the same way. It makes me feel like she is actually into me.
Perfect First Date:
On a first date I want to focus on getting to know the girl. Just going out to dinner is too typical, and I like to be active. A movie is never a good first date for me because we have a lot to learn about each other, and it is hard to do that in a theatre. We would start the night cooking chicken Parmesan, baked mostaccioli, and homemade bread sticks. It is a relatively easy meal to cook so if she is not a seasoned cook, she will still be able to help. Then we will eat our home cooked feast and drink a little wine to ease up any nerves either of us is feeling, and then we would really get to know each other. For dessert we will have an Oreo ice cream cake—just because they are amazing. If things are going well we should just be able to talk for a while and lose track of time. In a perfect world, the setting would be near a beach, and we could go for a walk on the beach and eventually find a spot to lie down and look at the stars. Also, in a perfect world, neither of us would have to leave, and we would fall asleep on the beach to the sound of waves crashing softly on the shore.
