Nicolena Nino-Rosato & Timothy Rosato: Building Consent Cultures in College

Author: Dr. Michael Ayalon June 12, 2026 Duration: 33:22

Attorney Nicolena Nino-Rosato has a unique and diverse background. Having started her career in the District Attorney's office while completing her master's degree In Healthcare Ethics and Bioethics, she understands all sides of a criminal case. She graduated Summa Cum Laude from Washington and Jefferson University in 2005. She then earned her joint JD/MA at Duquesne University and in 2008 Nicole went on to complete her residency program for her PhD at Duquesne University at Mercy Hospital. After working for a large firm in downtown Pittsburgh, Attorney Nino furthered her education by attending Saint James School of Medicine, to which she attributes her ability to grasp difficult medical concepts that come up in her cases. We also have with us co-Founder Timothy Rosato of an app called The NotME App.

In episode 682 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out common legal situations that college students find themselves in unintentionally, why communication is so complicated today, what was the inspiration behind The NotME App, healthy ways that college students can communicate their boundaries, how technology has changed the way college students communicate, what role alcohol plays in clouding communication, what is Title IX, how fraternities and sororities can create consent cultures in college, and how being a parent changes the way you think about student safety.

Hosted by Dr. Michael Ayalon, the Fraternity Foodie Podcast by Greek University moves beyond surface-level chatter to engage with the complex realities of campus Greek life. This isn't about social calendars or party themes; it's a dedicated space for necessary dialogue, pulling in leading voices and practitioners who work directly within the fraternity and sorority community. Each episode tackles a specific, often challenging, aspect of the student experience, from foundational safety issues like hazing and sexual assault prevention to the nuanced pressures surrounding substance use, mental wellness, and recruitment. The conversations are built on a practical educational framework, aiming to translate expert insight and frontline experience into actionable understanding for listeners. By focusing on these critical topics, the podcast seeks to contribute to stronger, healthier, and more accountable campus cultures. Tune in for thoughtful, solution-oriented discussions that address the questions at the heart of modern fraternity and sorority life.
