CINO TIE Take 2 - Coastal Carolina University
In This Section

CINO TIE Welcome

Because of COVID-19, everything is looking a little bit different in Fall 2020. So, the Office of New Student and Family Programs, in conjunction with several other offices and departments, is hosting CINO TIE, round 2 for all students. Whether it is your first semester at CCU or your last, we want to make sure all students feel welcomed (back) to campus. Before classes begin face-to-face, we hope you take some time to connect with other students and get engaged on campus.

Some events on the schedule were included in the Student Activities Weekly email, and the more detailed schedule is below.

In addition, if you are a new student and have not yet picked up your CINO TIE swag bag, stop by the Office of Student Life in the Lib Jackson Student Union, Room B-213 during normal business hours in order to pick it up.

Reporting “on-line” to be “in a relationship” is a far cry from actually being in one as the speed of dating and relating has accelerated dramatically. Apps like Tindr, LuLu and Grindr and sites like Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, OK Cupid and Plenty of Fish have forever changed dating’s landscape. One post, one text, even one picture can alter multiple lives in a moment and be used to inflict intentional or unintentional harm on others. Colleges nationwide are promoting inclusivity, a culture of consent, and mature decision making from its campus community. In a humorous, yet challenging way, 14-Time National Speaker of the Year, David Coleman, The Dating Doctor, will help you navigate dating’s treacherous landscape as he addresses: mutual consent, safe words, becoming an intervener, The ABC’s of Initial Interest, flirting versus sincere interest, the characteristics of healthy relationships, subtle signs that cheating may be taking place, surviving and thriving following a difficult (public) breakup, 7 traits we look for in others, common mistakes made during on -line dating, long-distance relationships, military relationships and more. David’s expertise and experience make this more than just a program…it’s an event.
