The pageant allowed the finalists for Homecoming King and Queen to parade through Great Court in Mitten Hall showing off their many talents. The next day, Main Campus Program Board sponsored the first annual Night Owt which provided free BBQ, giveaways, and continuous music for dancing and a HOOT lot of fun! Fridays events were a great start to an eventful weekend. The Friday line up included an early afternoon pep rally around the Bell Tower, the Homecoming Parade, Net Night, and the highly anticipated Nas Concert. The fun did not end there! On game day, thousands of Temple students, alumni, and staff came out to the afternoon tailgate in preparation for Temple Owls game against the Western Michigan Broncos. Although the Owls suffered a close loss of 7-3, the infamous fight song T for Temple U rang through the stadium and into the streets proving that Temples spirit never dies. The whole event left the still proud fans hopeful for the same amount of fun throughout the rest of the year and crossing their fingers crossed for a win in the 2008 season.

icJ'jJjjj Above: Students begin their Spring Fling on Liacouras Walk There is one day each school year that never fails to garner the attention of students and teachers alike. With an all-day abundance of giveaways, games, food and music, Spring Fling is the time of the year when students can be seen outside roaming the tables and booths that line the campus perimeters. Beginning in the late 1970s, Spring Fling is a Temple tradition that has lasted more than 30 years. Today, the annual event is held during a weekday late in the school year after Spring Break and right before finals. This years festivites took place on Wednesday, April 15, 2009. Whether students choose to attend classes or sit along Beury Beach enjoying the festivities, there is, and will always be, fun to be had at Spring Fling! - Katheleen Garvin Above: Students taking a stab at fencing.
