Peabody and Johnson Hardwick halls are freshman dorms, well known for their sta communal living styles. Students living here have more opportunity to meet people on thei I feel like I wouldn't have met have the people I'm friends with if I had lived in a differeny [with suite style rooms], said freshman Lane Ackerman. 1940 and White Hall are freshman and sophmore residence halls known for their rooms. The location of 1940 and White Hall are what students find convenient about them I like that its [1940] right in the middle of everything, said freshman Val Rubinsky. Hall is on the edge of campus, but freshman Rosie Falco said she likes living at White Hall because its so close to the cafeteria at Johnson and Hardwick and the Rite Aid is right across street. While most upper classmen choose to find housing off-campus in apartments and houses, some upper classmen take the opportunity to live at Temple Towers or 1300.

 I usually focus on my upper body, using the weights. I like doing the group fitness, such as Aerobics. What is your favorite thing to do at the IBC? - Nick H All photos by Tekara Gainey Temples Fitness program has many options to keep students active and in shape. Whether a student prefers playing tennis at the pavilion, running on the outdoor track, or using the free weights at the IBC, the opportunity to buff up is always there. With classes such as Boot Camp and Hip Hop Funk, each student can find the right class to get in shape for his or her interest or body type, while still having fun. Not only does the IBC offer fitness classes but there are also open weight rooms with machines and free weights. The racquetball courts are a popular work-out space for students as well. The IBC, open all day. has its busy times (especially around holidays - Thanksgiving!) but normally the machines and weights are accessible. In Pearson Hall, a pool is available for classes and free swims, giving a healthy aquatic option to students. The fitness facilities are a great addition to campus, helping keep Temple students in top Shape. - Christie Francis
