Harvard University is the best place to find a spouse—if you want a wedding announcement in the New York Times, that is.

A report published by Vox showed that, overall, couples with Times wedding announcements met at Harvard more than any other higher-ed institution. The findings were based on data calculated by Wedding Crunchers, a search engine that analyzes trends in Times wedding announcements.

The study looked at 702 wedding announcements posted since August 2015. 188 of those announcements were for couples who met at school, and of those 188, 15 met at Harvard.
