These students are amazed by the diversity:

These students love TU more than PSU:

"It makes me proud that I went to a school that is on the come up and not a cliche (aka Penn State)" - Anonymous, 2018

These students know the Owls are making a name for themselves:

These students simply love Temple:

"Temple University has given me great social, cultural, and educational experiences that I know I will use throughout my life. I have made friends here that I know will last a lifetime!" - Brooke, 2017

"Temple has been the best decision I have ever made. Everything about this school makes you proud to go here." -Max, 2016


And this student who was pleasantly surprised:

"Here's the thing: I didn't want to go to Temple. When I made up the decision to go to Temple, I felt like I was giving up on my dreams. That could not be further from the truth. There is not a day that goes by that I'm not thankful that the circumstances forced me to go the Temple, because now that I am on campus, I understand that no other college could provide me with as many opportunities and tools for success at the relatively low price that Temple does. Plus, being in the honors program means I have the small class sizes and seminar-style classes that I otherwise would've paid tens of thousands of dollars more for at the small liberal arts college I once thought was a better fit. I am proud to call Temple home." - Claire McGlinchey, 2020

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
