Temple also has a Center City Campus, located directly in the middle of one of the largest cities in the nation and only 3 miles away from Main Campus! This allows for students to not only enjoy campus life but also city life simultaneously. Campus Philly discounts allows students to enjoy various cultural and entertainment events in the city for less. Students can expand their historical knowledge about the country by going to the Constitution Center, Liberty Bell, or any of the historical sights in Old City. Students can also enjoy discounted tickets to watch their favorite band play at a nearby lounge or attend First Fridays and view magnificent art in the streets of Philadelphia. Shopping and restaurants galore are also an all-time favorite aspect of the city, for most Temple Students. Conveniently, all of these options are a simple subway ride away. ■ • Tckara Gainey Hfffi ijekar trey.' 1991- Students in the Student Centi 9 ... 9
