Love: It’s for everyone! Your dog or mom, that special someone, a roommate or even yourself. No matter who it’s for, the love you have deserves to be shouted from the rooftops! Okay, maybe not from the rooftops, but still, it deserves to be shared nevertheless. That’s why we at Fourth Estate dedicate ourselves to publicizing your love this Valentine’s Day.

For Junior Allie Meilier, her love goes out to her roommate, Alexandria. “We have been living together for a long time and she is so sweet,” Meilier said. “I love talking to her and I know she always has my back. She truly is a bright light in my life!”

Freshman Samantha Bruder’s love also goes out to a friend who has her back. “I love my friend Isabel for always being there for me no matter what,” Bruder said.

Junior Olivia Lee says her love goes out to her boyfriend and best friend, David.

“He is such an awesome human being and I really enjoy spending time with him. He is my best friend and I love that I can be myself around him,” Lee said.

Sophomore Abbi Harmon sends her love to her mom in Idaho. “I love my mom so much. She is the reason why I am able to come [to George Mason University] for school and she just makes my day so much better whenever I talk to her,” Harmon said.

Senior Rae Wagner and Sophomore Jessica Ochoa send out love to their dogs for being cuties, with Ochoa also shouting out that her dog has “a really nice face.”

For Senior Alphy Abulimiti, his love goes out to his girlfriend, Jennifer. “My beloved Jennifer is amazing and is just the best. I love her a lot and she makes me a better man,” Abulimiti said.

Senior Adam Rizzoli sends love to Mason UBU, an organization for disabled and neurodiverse students. “I love [UBU] because it is an organization no other universities have,” Rizzoli said. “I love how it is ahead of its time and it helps a lot of people that don’t get help otherwise.”

Freshman Adam Marcell says his love goes out to Johnathan for being such an influential person in his first year at Mason.

“Johnathan has been such a great friend since meeting him as Patriot Leader this past summer,” Marcell said. “He is a great Resident Assistant and an awesome Altar Server at church. He makes sure I am well taken care of and have everything I need and I can’t ask for a better friend in Christ.”

Freshman students from Lincoln Hall send their love to Community Director Kaya Mitchell, thanking her for always supporting their residence building and dealing with their shenanigans.

Last but certainly not least, I extend my love to our readers and staff writers at Fourth Estate. Thank you for being part of our community and supporting Fourth Estate’s endeavors! Have a happy Valentine’s Day Patriots!
