cpicccs of the 5) I Uphi Off Campus Memorie Temple offers its students many activities on campus, but tfie fun does not stop there! Philadelpfiia is a great city, and Temple students take advantage of it. Like a kaleidoscope, the city has many different and unique pieces. No matter what your interests are, Philadelphia offers something. If art is your thing. The Philadelphia Museum of Art is one of the most renowned museums in the country. If you are in the mood for shopping, the Gallery is a favorite place for Temple students because it is close and accessible by subway or regional rail. Great dining of all kinds is also readily available. Philadelphia is the home of the famous Philly cheese steak, after all. It is just as easy to grab a quick bite to eat as it is to find a fancy restaurant with valet parking. My favorite place to grab a cheese steak is definitely Jim ' s on South Street, said Kate Hauseman a BTMM major, because they have a picture of Eddie from Family Matters on the wall. The best part of being in Philadelphia is that one can have some off campus fun during the day without a plan. Strolling through South Street, Center City, Old City, Chinatown and Rittenhouse Square are entertaining and often education at the same time. Philadelphia is a large city, a one of a kind place to every individual.

Spring ing Gettin ' Crazy April shows may bring May flowers, but who care about that, anyway? April means that there ' s only one more month left of school, and that is cause to celebrate. Spring Fling is a campus-wide celebration in the middle of April. Students can listen to live music at the Bell Tower or choose from the assortment of food that lines 12th street. The event is also a way for student organizations to get their names out by setting up tables around the Bell Tower and in front of Paley Library. Spring Fling is one way that Temple tries to bring the campus together, and it is also a demonstration of the diversity that exists at Temple. While Spring Fling may only last one day, the sprit that is manifested in it runs through Temple all year round.
