Temple naugural Picni ' What a Wonderful Day The Temple Town Inaugural Picnic was held to welcome the new President of Temple University, Dr. David Adamany. This was a time for him to meet with students and for students to get to know him. The event began with the Temple University Diamond Band marching through campus. Then, students and visitors had their choice of listening to creative poetry, watching the Temple Latin American Ensembles, or enjoying an in- terpretive dance. By noon it was time for multimedia per- formances. By the late afternoon, things were winding down. Students could enjoy listening to jazz music or watching an excerpt from Outside the Walls, or they could go with some- thing a little more upbeat and learn how to salsa dance. The day was filled with free food and fun. Throughout campus hotdogs, hamburgers, soda, and pretzels were given out courtesy of President Adamany and Temple University. The highlight and final event of the day was from 1:00 to 1:30 when students had the delightful opportunity of actually getting to meet the Pres- ident and shake his hand. R.ichael Anderson

Hang Outs Where everyone goes on and off campus Photo By: Kate Hagenbueh I veryone loves the Owl ' s Nest. Meet you at the Bell Tower at 12! See you in SAC for the meeting! Feel like getting something to eat at the Owl ' s Nest? The e are all phrases often heard all over Temple ' s campus. Hang outs are an essential part of social life here at Temple. One of the most popular hang outs is the Owl ' s Nest. Students often fre- quent it for its good food and for George, the infamous owner. George provides a warm place to go after the big game or before you start the long night with the books! The Student Activities Center, also known as SAC, is home to many or- ganizations and university depart- ments. In SAC ' s basement, the Tem- ple University Bookstore holds anything and everything that stu- dents find essential to college life. Ranging from hooded Temple sweat- 232-6SIS The Owls Nest shirts to Psych 50 textbooks, the Bookstore is a source for every stu- dent ' s needs. The upper floors hold most of Temple University ' s student organization offices. Temple Student Government. Greek Letter Associa- tions and clubs are located in the Student Activities Center. Meetings are held regularly and clubs are a great way to meet new people and make new friends. Another great way to chill out at Temple is catching a movie at what used to be known as SAC Cinema, now held at Tuttleman Learning Center due to renovation. Films are shown seven days a week and are selected by a committee. If you want to grab a quick bite to eat, try the Owl Cove where you can get a variety of items ranging from coffee and a bagel to a sandwich and a coke. A common hang out where friends can meet and enjoy a meal is Tem- ple ' s Dining Center, located at John- son and Hardwick. Not only can stu- dents get exotic meals such as Egyptian Chicken, but they can also munch on turkey and stuffing, rem- inding them of the good ' ol days of home-cooked meals. There are many places to gather on campus. Whether hanging out at the Bell Tower, sitting by the talking owl at Alumni Circle, or sitting on a bench at Rock Hall. Temple students have plenty of places to meet new people, rekindle old friendships, or find a place to center themselves.
