Adelphi Couples
From Prince William and Kate Middleton to Eli Manning and Abby Mcgrew, many couples around the world can trace their love connection back to a college campus.
We are proud to celebrate the more than 1,000 alumni couples that found love at Adelphi. Some found love as students on campus, and some met — or discovered their love —later in life. But each couple shares a common experience of being an Adelphi Panther.

Harris Cherpelis '19 and Olivia Minogue Cherpelis '19, MA '22
