Many of the students' complaints arc well-founded. The school is very big, with a current enrollment of 31,700. The subways are unsafe and the buses slow. There is not enough legal parking space. Tuition has more than doubled since the senior entered. There are lines for everything, from registering to eating to paying deferred final fees. University bureaucrats don't seem to care about the student and his opinions are too often ignored when decisions are made. The requirements of basic studies and departmental programs strive to realize the program designers' vision of the well-rounded person. The large lecture halls are over-crowded. Many of the instructors dislike teaching, and do so only because it is required to do their research. And so the majority of Temple students try to make their long, unpleasant Temple experience as short as possible, reducing it to a subway or carpool ride, two or three consecutive classes, followed immediately by a return trip home. They complain to each other about the intellectual and social void, the absence of a campus, and the lack of any interesting activities at this, the commuter school. By limiting his associations to those who want to fulfill their pessimistic view of Temple, the student ignores the offerings of the school he does not want to see.

to Temple was the phrase circulating among the seniors of the Philadelphia high schools in 1967. This is the attitude that the majority of today's seniors brought with them when they entered four years ago, and it has shaped their college careers. They came to Temple l ecause they had to stay in the city, and it s easier to get into, and cheaper than Penn. They entered what they called thirteenth grade, and talked about just a continuation of high school. And from his first freshman class to the commencement exercises he swore he wouldn’t attend, but showed up at because my parents wanted to see me graduate. he complained about Temple.
