Temple University is an urban university. There is no campus and few ivy-colored walls ... - TEMPLAR 1953 Each year, the editors of the TEMPLAR attempt the near - impossible task of trying to explain, in words and on paper, the essence of Temple University. From year to year, their methods vary. Some try by printing a short synopsis of the university ' s history. Temple University had its beginnings back in 1884, when a group of young men who wished to study for the ministry asked Dr. Russel H. Conwell, minister of Baptist Temple, to help them in a series of night school courses. — TEMPLAR, 1955 For others, such as those who put together the 1972 book, it ' s the reprinting of Joni Mitchell. Kris Kristofferson and Bob Dylan song lyrics. Or a Lenny Bruce monologue, ... San Francisco, I got arrested for . . . I ' m not going to repeat the word because I want to finish the gig here tonight. In 1966, the editors took a close look at various aspects of the campus, particularly the then newly-completed Park Mall, in their attempt to explain the school. The Mall is ... a symbol of life at an institution distinctly urban in character where the majority of students are commuters. For many of them, the Mall is their only contact with activity on campus aside from their elasses.-TEMPLAR. 1966 Then there are those who chose to point out the more obvious aspects of this urban community. Temple University, on the spine of a dynamic metropolis, a landscape of asphalt, concrete, steel. In the midst of urban life, the reality of poverty and despair.-TEMPLAR. 1968 Some took a more pessimistic route, If you can ' t go to college, go to Temple, was the phrase circulating among the seniors of the Philadelphia high schools in 1967. TEMPLAR. 1971
