Meh. I don't think most girls care about that. I ask new students why they came to our school with their sister, when it's obviously their mom, and the moms always tee hee and maybe blush a little. I think that someone WANTS to compliment you is sufficient for most people to take it in a good light.
As for meeting people in school, that's soooooo easy. You have a million pretexts to delay someone. "I'm sorry to bother you, but did you get what the prof said about ____?" Then a few minutes later, "Oh, hey, thanks for the help. Can I buy you a coffee?" But if you don't get in there pretty quick, she'll probably be going for coffee WITH the professor.

I mean . . . I'm just trying to offer good advice. So genuine. Yeah, that's it! "Genuine interest".
You forgot patronizing condescension. That often works as well. So do dressing nicely, having a puppy, or being able to complete longer sentences all on your own.
Let's face it, the mystique is an illusion. College is essentially a breeding ground for lonely young people looking to find someone, and the only way NOT to get a match is not to talk to anyone.
