Why not ask her out for lunch? You could even brown-bag it out on the quad, and then (in regard to the original questioner) you could fool all those other "lonely people" into thinking you're a real couple, eh? Kidding aside, lunch is probably the best choice for a first date as it is a more relaxing atmosphere -- that is, going to a bar tends to emphasize the sexual nature of the encounter and can be very anxiety laden for both people, but at a lunch there is more of a chance to get to know each other as individuals first. Going out for coffee and doughnuts in the morning, or an ice cream in the afternoon are other similar suggestions. You can probably think of many other similar ones if you try.
