PS. I See You – A Zoom Dating Experience (CSP1/21-22)
Ever think that you can meet new people even when you are homebound? Yes, you can. Our online version of “A Simple Speed Dating Experience” was a huge success last semester.

This virtual meetup allows you to meet people, get to know them and interact with them in a brand-new “blind-date” setting. It also facilitates your self-understanding and how you connect with others beyond the idea of “judging a book by its cover”. Be ready to get a little surprise at the end of this event as well!
