Boston University's campus news site BU Today is asking members of the BU community to share their wedding proposal stories ahead of Valentine's Day. The university is looking for funny, sweet, or unique tales of Terriers proposing to other Terriers, whether they are alumni, students, faculty, or staff.

Why it matters

BU has a strong alumni network and community spirit, and the university is hoping to celebrate the romantic connections that have formed between members of the BU family over the years. Sharing these proposal stories can help strengthen the bonds between Terriers and inspire others who may be considering proposing to their own BU sweetheart.

The details

BU Today is accepting submissions through a form on their website. The university is asking for details about the proposal, including when and where it took place, as well as the BU affiliations of both people involved. On Valentine's Day, BU Today plans to publish a selection of the best and most unique proposal stories shared by the community.

• The submission form for proposal stories is open now through February 13, 2026.
• BU Today plans to publish the selected proposal stories on February 14, 2026.

What’s next

BU community members have until February 13, 2026 to submit their proposal stories through the form on the BU Today website. The selected stories will then be published on the university's website on Valentine's Day, February 14, 2026.
