I don't see why this matters. Two people like each other? Why does it matter where it's happening or what the context is? It's probably more natural and humanizing to treat people like humans instead of objects you cannot have feelings for too.

If it disturbs the surrounding environment (eg: inhibits work to be done, disrupts classes to be held, etc.), yes it does matter where and how it happens.

A love life is a strictly private affair; if it intrudes into professional, academic, or otherwise not-private time then you are doing it wrong.
