#JSULove - "The first time I saw Christian, I was hanging out on the plaza with my friend, Se’Mone. Christian stopped by to talk with Se’Mone and after he left, he sent word to Se’Mone that he liked me and wanted to take me out. I was uninterested at first, but then I finally gave him a chance. Our first date turned into a second, a second into a third, and the rest was history. We started out as really good friends and then our friendship began to evolve into a relationship. As our time at Jackson State began to come to an end, we began planning our future together. Christian joined the Jackson Police Department after he graduated, and I moved to Atlanta right after I graduated. We maintained a long distance relationship for 11 months. Christian decided to move back home to Chicago to join the Chicago Police Department. A few months after Christian moved back home, I made the transition to Chicago as well.

Christian proposed on October 31, 2016 at his final CPD graduation. I was planning to take a picture with Christian and a few other CPD graduates, so of course everyone had their phones out. People were counting '1,2,3' to snap the picture. But, Christian’s coworkers threw out confetti instead, and before my eyes, Christian was down on one knee asking me to marry him. I was so shocked and in disbelief. To make it even more memorable, the news station was there to capture the aftermath of this joyous occasion. After dating for 6 years, I get to marry my college sweetheart in Cancun on April 21, 2018." - Jade (Class of 2015), talking about her engagement to Christian (Class of 2013). Congratulations, Jade and Christian!
