Temple University - Templar Yearbook (Philadelphia, PA)

Page 17 text:

For the 1958 Templar: For most of the years of its existence, Temple University has thought of itself as an institution of commuting students, despite the fact that certain of its divisions have always attracted people from many states and from foreign lands. We have been prqud of this local character. Great regional institutions of higher learning are as vital a part of the educational purposes as those of broader geographic scope. During the academic careers of seniors now being graduated changes in the University ' s composition have been evident. The advantages of education in an urban center and the unusual character of many of our offerings have brought increasing numbers of students from more distant points. Peabody Hall and other recently acquired residential facilities for the out-of-town are recog- nition of this. The University will a ways have a special responsibility to the city in which it is located and to the metropolitan community of which Philadelphia is the focal point. Our first ambition is to have and to deserve the confidence of those at home who know us best. At the same time, we welcome an increased core of residents on campus to provide better geographic balance. To the seniors who leave us, wherever their homes, they go from here as sons and daughters of Temple University, taking with them, we hope, some part of the Temple character. May the influence of that character and their recollections of Temple prompt them to send back to us sometime at least one young person, perhaps more, as a kind of replacement for themselves. Such ties, lengthening and strengthening, are the living links that benefit both the institution and the individual. ROBERT L JOHNSON 13
