TEMPLAR Annual YEARBOOK Volume 8 9 Temple University 1801 North Broad Street Philadelphia, PA 19121 215.204,7000 , wvAV-temple.edu PREFACE With the experiences, people and beliefs that have affected our lives, we create our own, unique identities. Those identities compelled us to embark on a new adventure that led us all to Temple University. Each one of us carries our own legend. It may have started with a grain of truth that has been embellished, exaggerated, and retold, passing it along through others, but no two stories are ever the same. One thing is true: we all meet together, here at Temple University. H 005 [amtanls. l-c hurU’tl 006 fi Four “Years Students Shore their perspectives m the importance of registration before flection Dag PaulinaJayne Isaac tti m definitely voting on Election Day.' said Kassandra Wright, a freshman I Strategic Communications major. 'I registered the first time someone I asked me to vote on campus. Like Wright, ma ny Temple University students voted for the first ti me in the 2012 Presidential Election. President Barack Obama fought for a second term against former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney in the heated race. Benjamin Cohen, a freshman Media Studies and Production major, also voted for the jirst time. “I think it is a defining moment in American history because we are coming out of a recession and we need to decide what kind of country we want to be again, Cohen said. Howex'er, some students weren't as enthusiastic about theelection year as others. My parents aren't into politics, so I'm not into politics either, said Devon Magee, a freshman Neuroscience major. Another student wasn't happy about those on Liacouras who tried to accumulate more voters. There are people everywhere throwing stuff in your face and gettingyou to register ’ said Michelle Huynh, a freshman Biology major. “I didn't register to vote because I don't feel like I need to vote. It was common to see people walking up and down the side walk.askingstudents if they were registered to vote. Registration was made accessible to students through many different nonpartisan organizations. Students were able to register at tables set up at various locations such as the Howard Gittis Student Center, the Bell Tower and Liacouras Walk. Students agreed that Temple made it easy to register to vote. They sent me the registration card in the mail and it told me where to go. said Morgan Jenkins, a sophomore Sports Management and Recreation major. 'This is my first time voting now that I'm i8, Jenkins added. As Election Day came to an end, the political polls indicated that Obama collected 332 Electoral Votes, while Romney only accumulated 206. With 50.6 percent of the popular vote. Obama would serve as President for the next four years. 010 ti fr Express Yourself Temple Mudenti find hety-expression in the gmn fcdJiion and tattmi Carla Urdanlta Our personalities, by nature, aren't part of our physical appearance However, there are people who try to show theirs in what they wear, how they look, and the vibe they give off. Usually, this is done through their fashion style and body decoration. At Temple University, this is no exception. As you walk down Liacouras Walk or sit by the Bell Tower, thousands of people with interesting tattoos and notable clothes walk by and one can't help but wonder what they're like. For this reason, several students were asked to share with our community their ways of thinking regarding self-expression through physical appearance. Melissa Volkert. a 20-year-old Communications major, talked about her personal style. As an actress and a singer. she’s very outgoing and vibrant—and her outfits show it She said she loves to wear things that make her noticeable and help her stand out among a crowd, which clearly comes from her background in theater and her love for being in the spotlight She describes herself as a modem day hippie. I have always idolized the style choices ofjanisJoplin, who was a singer in the ’60s and '70s, Volkert said. I can say that I have picked out clothing with Janis specifically in mind. She mentioned as well that she likes to wear green because it makes a beautiful contrast with her red hair. Regarding tattoos. Yaasmeen Guyton-Givens, a Psychology major, is the girl to talk to. The tattoo on her wrist might seem like two simple Leo sign symbols, but, it holds a deep meaning to her. It represents the intertwiningo herand her twin, who passed away in her mother's womb. This tattoo is definitely a permanent testament displaying my feelings that mademeget it and not a snapshot 0 how I felt at that time. Guyton said. However, for Alexander Wenrich. an English major, tattoos are purely decorations. He started getting tattoos when he was about 16 and said they are addicting. Wenrich has too many tattoos to count, but said he “will never regret getting them because he does it for himself and the tattoos represent things he likes.

Dalloonsandmusic filled the scene as a marker of the beginning of Homecoming festivities. The crowd enjoyed the eight Homecoming King and Queen contestants as they participated in the Q A School Spirit Fashion Show and Talent Show portions of the pageant. Thomas Green, the senior Homecoming King, was asked what he wanted students to remember him for. 'My community involvement, sustainability and co-existence. Green said. He then reminded students to’GoGreen.’ echoing his campaign posters. The Pep Ra!(y signified the kick-off of the Big East season for Temple ootbaII. The Diamond Band performed along with the Diamond Gems and Temple Cheerleaders to raise school spirit and excitement or the Temple ootball game against the University o South Florida. T went out for band because of my friends and I love it. said Nicole Bieri. a sophomore Color Guard member. “We practiced for two weeks before the game at seven o’clock in the morning to prepare because the alumni were coming back. Another student shared how she participated in Homecoming ‘I’m a flyer and we added stunts for the Homecoming game, said Heather Kaswandik. a freshman cheerleader. “We also wore our Temple polos all day. Our goal was to get more people logo to the games. Cheerleaders and band members were not the only ones showing their school spirit Edward Ross, a sophomore, painted his entire face and chest in red and white for the pep rally. “I love Temple and Homecoming is an ice-breaker.’ Ross said. “It's fun and it works. The spirit did not end at the pep rally though. It continued into the ootball game with a 37- 28 Temple victory over South Florida. I went to the game even though I'm not much of a football fan. said Karen Ramon, a freshman Business major. l‘m going to show school spirit because! love Temple so far.’ Family and friends came out to tailgate before the game and even alumni showed their school spirit by participating in the halftime show. But the celebration didn't stop after the game. The Homecoming performers. Big Sean featuring Pusha-T. performed Saturday night after the game. 1 was excited to go to Big Sean with my friends. Ramon said. I wanted to go because I didn't get to see Wit Rapper Wiz Khali a was the per ormer or this year's Welcome Week concert The football victory and high student turnout made Homecominga success. ‘Overall it was a lot more than I expected since I came from a small high school that didn't even have ootball’ Kaswandik said.

Free Food and Fun Friday is an event held every Friday night at the Howard Gittis Studen t Center Atrium for students to come out and enjoy. The best part about it? It's all free. The food, performances and games are available to anyone who needs something to do to kick off their weekend. This ewnt would not be possible without the co-hosts. They are generally two or three different student organizations looking to spread the word about theirgroup and provide an enjoyable experience for everyone that attends. The co-hosts or Free Food and Fun Friday on Oct. 12 were the Rotary Club and the National Society of Black Engineers. Their theme was The Temple Olympics.' Tashiah Myrick. a sophomore Mechanical Engineering major and the Programs Chair of the National Society of Black Engineers, shared why they hosted the event I chose to host this event because we wanted to get the National Society of Black Engineers known for more than just engineering things’ Myrick said. With the large student body Temple has, it becomes difficult for people throughout the campus to be aware of all the different organizations and clubs offered. Myrick believed hosting the Free Food and Fun Friday event would be an excellent way to bring attention to her group. The event proved to be a great help to the National Society of Black Engineers. Ido think that we got our name out there because we have had more people coming out to our other events.’Myrick said. Along with the ever-changing hosts, there is a different theme each week. For frequent attendees, every time they go to Free Food and Fun Friday, it feels like the first time. I go to Free Food Fun Friday almost every week and I never get bored of it.' said Claire Spurrier, an undeclared sophomore. There is always some new food to try or a performance I ve never seen before. There's a huge thought process around the theme that people may not realize. We suggested the theme over the summer.'Myrick said. They decided upon an Olympics theme and after months ofplanning, their idea came to life. After enjoying a performance from the women's gymnastics team, attendees were able to enjoy a variety of games including oosball. skeeball and even shooting some hoops in basketball. These smallergames were meant to represent the larger games played at the Olympics,’ Myrick explained. If that weren't enough, the more games played, the more chances there were at winning great prizes, like $100 worth of Diamond Dollars. There was also an opportunity to dance and get a shirt spray painted with any spying you wanted. While working up a sweat, people could also enjoy the multicultural food provided to symbolize the different countries involved in the Olympics. ft may be a little intimidating hosting Free Food and Fun Friday, an event that studen ts have gone to for years, but Myrick did not seem too worried. I have been to other Free Food and Fun Fridays in the past and f do think our event was up to par with theotherones.'Myricksaid. Students come to the Student Center on Fridays for all different reasons. Whether it is the food, entertainment or chances to win cool prizes. Free Food and Fun Friday offers a fun time without breaking anybody’s budget. ‘Anyexcuse ora party. said Michael Eastridge. a sophomore Athletic Training major.

I Leone has seen the police force grow and develop. It became more professional, and really developed over the years.' Leone said. The Temple Police department'sgoal is to protect the community, as well as the city o Philadelphia. The police department of Temple has both police officers in patrol cars, as well as police oncers on bikes. They also have a connection with Allied Barton security officers. Our Temple police officers! maintain the peace and well being of students and acuity. said Lieutenant Russell Moody, who has been a part of Temple for 18 years. VVe make sure the environment is conducive to everyone learning. While the Temple police help out the students and community, there are some misconceptions surroundingwhat the officers actually do. According to Moody, officers are seen as unapproachable. primarily because students feel they are going to face harsh consequences. Arresting someone is the last resort. Moody said. We wan t to do everything we can to help the community and keep the peace. Officer Michael McShane, who Leone calls Temple Polices “ambassador. has been an officer for 42 years, and hears the misconceptions as being gruff and angry. Some (students) just don’t know what we do. Leone said. The Temple police want to be known for the positive things they do, and inform students of what they do. Aside rom directing tragic and issuing tickets, they meet with student organizations, such as Temple Student Government (TSG). concerning issues with thecommunity.as well as reaching out to the community. The Temple police also offer security to students at night. The Owl Loop and Til Door Service allow students the opportunity to be taken home safely.

Eighty-five percent of these students are accepted and roughly 60 percent decide to attend. In other words, almost half of the student body is made up of transfer srudentsfrom a variety of schools. These students can come during either Fall or Spring semester and havedijjerent reasons for their decision. Despite these differences, they are all happy about the change. Talia Gottesman. a junior Nursing major, transferred from the University of Massachusetts-Amherst after her first semester. 'I wanted to be closer to home and other aspects of my life that were important to me.' Gottesman said. I fell no reason to stay at another state school that I was paying more money for.' 'Even though Temple is a large school, they give you a lot of options to make it feel like a small school.” Gottesman added. There are a ton of opportunities to form small communities—through clubs and such—where you are more that just a number. It’s thc act that it’s a big school thatgivesyou all these options.” Ethan Wasserman, a junior Public Health major, and Nathan Peretz a sophomore Landscape Architecture major, are roommates and both transferred to Temple for their respective programs. Peretz enjoys the big city feel with the small school attention that hegets by livingon Main Campus and commuiingeveryday to Ambler jor his major. Wasserman transferred to live in a house with his friends, one of whom was Peretz. The pair lived in a house with jive other students, all of which were transfer students except two. Max Cohen, a transfer student from Penn State-Berks made the switch because he wanted more access to the city. 'It has the fast-paced vibe of a city but can also be laid-back at rimes as well. Cohen said. Cohen is still transitioninginto theschool and admits that there are less hours in a day at Temple than anywhere else. Despite this fact, he is ‘very happy that he has an exciting week and not just exciting weekends Temple also accepts in ternarionai students jrom over too countries, many of which come to this school for tts excellent academics. There are many structures in place to help them through ' the transitionprocess.such asyear-round English courses to improw their language skills. These courses help the student feel more comfortable with the languageand communicating with others.

Moore Avenue has undergone a lot of changes as construction on the new residence building Morgan Hall reached its nal stages. Construction on Morgan Hall began in the spring of 2011 and the projected cost is around $216 million to complete. Set to open for residency in fall of 2013, the hall is named in honor of Board ofTrustees memberMitchel! L Morgan and hiswi e, Hilarie. The Morgans have supported the school and campus for many decades, includinga recent donation of $5 million. Considering the amount of money he donates to the school each year and the fact he is a Temple alum, it only feels appropriate the hall is named after (Morgan!.’ said Tamara Mamistvalova. a senior Biochemistry major. Morgan remained actively involved with Temple since his time here as a student Earning his bachelors degree in Business Management from the Fox School of Business in 1976. and a law degree from the Beasley School of Law in 1980. Morgan officially joined Temple's Board ofTrustees in 2002. Morgan also acted on the Fox School of Business Board of Visitors for eight years, and participated on the Beasley School of Law Board 0 Visitors during 2003.

(Morgan has been very modest since he found out Joseph added. His and his wi e's name will be attached to his building, but he's remained very modest about the accomplishment. The hall will stand 27 floors high and provide a beautiful view of the city. It will accommodate over 1.250 beds, vastly increasing the number of students living on campus.

' Each suite will accommodate four students and will include a ull kitchen, two bathrooms, and shared livingspace. “I’m considering living there because the layout plans and set up are very nice and have a cool modern design.’ said Alexander Ma. a sophomore Film and Media Arts major. From what I've seen, it's aesthetically pleasing. The hall will also eature a ten-story mid-rise, which will be home to additional residential rooms as well as administrative space. A dining facility and prime retail space will also be included. In total, the building will add 660.000 square feet to Temple's campus. I’m excited to see what shops will be included in the retail section. said Mandy Moya.anundeclared reshman. “I the rumorsaboutH M are true, J llgoevery week. “I want to try their food places. said Travis Boemer, a freshman Marketing major. “It'll be nice to have more variety on campus.' Morgan hall is part of Temple's 20 20 plan, a mission that hopes to improve the university's campus by constructing new buildings and improving green outdoor areas withinTemple'spre-existingframework. Also a part of the 20 20 plan is the completed renovation at Pearson and McGonigle Halls. Montgomery Avenue Garage, and the addition of a new science and education research center.

Temple University's Pearson McGonigle Complex is a newly-renovated recreation center with a variety of amenities. A itness mezzanine, rock climbing wall, basketball courts, pools, locker rooms and lecture halls are now part of the complex. Temple and Sodexo also worked together to add the Friit Bar,' a shop that offers smoothies, juicers and healthy Grab N' Go options such as a salad or fruit. The university unveiled the shop in November with a reetaste-testingo menu options. 'I've walked by it and I saw that it’s new. but I haven't been in there yet' said B yana Natale. a sophomorejoumalism major. I think III try it because I love jririt smoothies. The lecture halls in the Pearson McGonigle complex allow various classes to be taughtin the building including danceclasses. aerobic classes andyoga classes. 1 go there on Tuesdays for my art Gen Ed. ‘Jazz in a dance studio.' Natale said. It seems like a really nice building. When you walk up thestairs, the lights are lashing.' Part of the renovation was the addition o classroomsand studios orclasses under the Kinesiology department The rock climbing wall was a new addition to the complex as well. 'I think the rock climbing wall looks cool and I would totally try it'Natale added. A 26-foot climbing wall and a 12-foot bouldering wall are featured in the building. The wall has climbing from face climbs to steep overhangs. It accommodates climberso all levels. 'I wish it was bigger though and it eelslikeyou'reinaglassbowl.'saidHqyon Shin, afreshman. The wall is located in the atrium of the complex, surrounded by windows facing North Broad Street. The renovations also provide space for academics and advising. David Loiter, a freshman Business major had to go to Pearson McGonigle for advising. Laiter, who also plays center on the football team, saw advisors that were located in the complex “I go there for study hall and to play basketball sometimes.'Laitersaid. Part of the renovation in Pearson McGonigle included a new basketball facility, featuring new courts, a weight room, film study room, athletic training space, locker rooms and offices for the coaches. Laiteralsoadded. I think thecomplex is really nice. I don't know what it looked like before, but it looks brand new.” Fitness classes are also offered. Most fitness classes are located in the Independent Blue Cross Recreation Center or commonly referred to as IBC. but because Pearson McGonigle has a pool, the classes Aqua Box and Water Aerobics were located in Pool 31. The $59.8 million project that added 140.000 square feet to the existing center provided space for sports and academics, alike. The size of the buildingcan be its asset as well as its weakness. The floors are confusing and the elevators are in the back, Shin said. Emily Colby, afreshman Theater major, also voiced her opinion about the new building. It was very big and white. Colby said. I didn't know where to go and I was overwhelmed. All I could find was theswimmingpool. Students also questioned the use of funding. I think architecturally it is incredible, but I also think the money they used to build it could have gone to other parts of the school.'Colby said. ¥ B 027 Above: D 5n$tolf n«ic.

In November, a group of young women were spotted performing ballet outside the Samuel Paley Library. I think that it's reallycool'Baudon said. 'In France, no one expresses themselvescreatively like this. They danced and didn't care what people thought about them. They were just doing what they were most passionate about Many students were not strangers to the religious protesters and spokespeople who often set up near the Bell Tower. They [protesters] are obnoxious.’ said Jordan Snavely, a junior education major. “I don't think people need to prove the strength of their religion by praising it out loud. It's alright for them to believe in their own aith. but I think that they should spread it to those who are wiffingand wanting to listen while also respecting others belie s.' Students also held their own protests and debates at the Bell Tower including topics such as abortion and women’s rights especially during the ew weeks leading up to this year''selection. Temple Bbcys have also been known to perform and gather students to join in and dance with them, making the Bell Tower area the place to be. full of excitement and fun.

Everyone has that feelingof being the new kid on campus. Some ofthe people you meetinthosefirstfewweeksyoull end up hanging out with. You will grab dinner and maybe bit the occasional fiat party together. But as the year ends andyou all go your separate ways for the summer, losing almost all contact with one another. This is common with most college kids, but this group of seniors proved this scenario wrong Joseph Kaul.Jesse Eisenstein. MatthewSmith. Colin Farrell and AlexanderTaing all met during their freshmanyear at Temple. They all lived on the 10th Jloor of Hardwick Hall on the North side of campus and have been close friends ever since. We were next door neighbors.' said Kaul. an Advertising major, (Our room was like the central hang-out spot. The door was never locked and everybody would just come in. Their Jirst impressions of each other, though, weren't thegreatest. “Freshman year, I hated Jesse (Eisensteinl for the first two months, said Smith, a Business Entrepreneurship major. “All he would do is sit in our room and play Doughnut. I always loved Matt (Smith] but Jesse Eisenstein and I, freshman year, we used to go at it a lot, Kaul said. We got in one argument where I told him professional sports are rigged. It was half of a joke and he took it so seriously that it turned into a screaming match and we didn't talkfor a little bit afier that We used to arguefor the sake of arguing' After the first few weeks of awkwardness, theguys explained that they grew to really have a good time together. They pulled pranks on the Resident Assistants (RA) by slidingspiders under their doors and even ordered $60 worth of pizza to one of the RA’s rooms. Smith shared that during a time when he was camping out in a tent on campus, the rest of the group decided that it would be Jim to scare him in the middle of the night. Smith explained that theguys crept up tohis tent and poked a stick into it and really freaked him out We were all laughingat him.'Kaul said. From sleddingdown thestcpso the An Museum during a blizzard to causing shenanigans in their dorm, this group of guys began to get really close and remained so for the comingyears. During their sophomore year, they all lived together off campus and Kaul. Eisenstein. and Farrell made thedecision to pledge the Kappa Sigma Jraternity. Colin (Farrell! really wanted to do it but I was really against it. Kaul explained. 'Colin decided fall of our sophomore year that he was going to do it And after a whole summer of arguing with me. he convinced me to do it with him. Eisenstein. a Public Relations major, also joined Kappa Sigma in the following spring semester. Ttang Management Information Systems major, however, became a brother at Delta Chi Psi. Our friendship has prevailed through Greek separation. Eisenstein said. Were in separate fraternities but our friendship isstrong. Coming into the final part of their senioryear, theguys say that they plan to make the most of it and continue their friendship, oven though they no longer live with one another. When asked if he was going to keep in contact with thegroup, Eisenstein answered, oh yeah, definitely. Tm sure well keep in touch.' Kaul added. So what son their post-graduation “to-do list? We still have to go to the Shady Maple Smorgasbord in Lancaster. Pa. Smith said. That’s probably one of our biggest (i e goals. This is pretty much how stuff gets done: someone comes up with an idea and we're like 'Oh, let's do it’.' Eisenstein said. A Pennsylvanian Dutch cooking event in Lancaster. Pa. continuing to live in Philadelphia and remaining close friends is the next stop for these guys after they get their diplomas.

Temple put the TU Ready system in place in 2008 for students to receive emergency notijications. TU alerts, specificaliy.go out in the form of an email, text message or phone call. Each student is notified in these ways if a situation requires immediateaction to be taken by thecommunity. I would say the TU alert makes me feel more informed than anything, said Avoiy Brookins, a freshman Journalism major. Receiving a notification aboutan incident that occurred on or around campus informs a student but only keeps them safe if the study utilizes that information properly by avoiding thearea or taking the proper precautions.” But what constitutes sending a TU alert to the entire student body? Thatdecision is up to James Creedon, the Senior Vice President orConstruction, Facilities and Operations.alongwith the Temple policeforce. Once this critical group of campus professionals agrees that a situation needs to be addressed, they gather vital information andformulate a message to the student body, which is immediately sent to the University presidentfor approval. Given extreme circumstances, the president will waive his right so that the process will go faster and students are aware of the situation faster. This process helps to keep students updated about dangerous events on or around campus within minutes of an incident takingplace. I personally love TU Alert. said Noe Garcia, a freshman Journalism major, as it informs |mej of what is happeningaround thearea and howl should go about certain places that may or may not be a hazard during a certain time Garcia added how the alert definitely makes him feel safe as it is usually sent outfairly quickly. TU alerts are not the only type of emergency notifications though. TV advisories inform students of an event that has taken place, but does not require immediate action on their part The TU siren, on the other hand, is the most extreme of the three. It is sounded when there is a devastatingly dangerous situation, such as severe weatherora release of hazardous materials. It indicates the need for students to take shelter immediately. No matter what type of emergency notification. Temple goes through several different mediums to help keep the student body and surrounding community safe.

The advertising campaign launched in the fall 2012 semester, giving a sense of pride to the entire community. With TV commercials, billboards, newspaper ads. and more. Temple attempted to boost school pride. The advertising concept produced by Neiman.a local advertising agency, shows theunique and creative side of Temple. The campaign embraces and proudly points out the diversity of the Temple student body. said Jan Gera, an adjunct Advertising pro essor. “The bold, exciting visuals were created from submissions of Temple students and truly show the pride of being Temple Made.” Featuring students andfacvlty on the billboards and print ads. the campaign involved many members of the Temple community. Alumni from both the Tyler School of Art and School of Media and Communication helped to produce the TV commercials, while alumnifrom Boyer College of Music and Dance created soundtracks. But thecampaign didn't just stop at TV commercials, print ads. and online ads. A huge Temple Made live event held on Sept 27 brought out over 2,500 members of the Temple community. With tons of free food and colorful images from the campaign projected onto Pa ley Library and the Bell Tower, students danced to the music played by the Df and showed pride in their schooL Temple Made showed me that Temple University wants their students to have fun but stay safe, saidAlexa Cannizzo. a Science and Technology student I did not even hnowcolleges held school events like this, but it was nice to see they wanted to provide an entertainingyet harmless atmosphere for students.

Temples School of Communications and Theater has realigned into two separate institutions. This decision became effective July� . 2012. The realignment will house the majors of Strategic Communication. Advertising, Media Studies and Production— formerly known as BTMM—and Journalism, under the School of Media and Communications: Theater and Rim Media Arts, along with the Boyer School of Music and Dance, will now be housed under the Center for the Arts. Temple came to the decision to split the school ajter state budget cuts left the university lookingfor a way to eliminate operational inefficiencies. At the request of the Board of Trustees, studies were done to hone in on these inejjicienries andfnd the best solution. Thisall started at leastayearago.'said Don Keller, the Assistant Dean of the School of Media and Communications. The then-Provost did a review asking a lot of questions to faculty and stajf across the university because there were a lot of operational units involved that had potential to be changed.' According to Keller, these studies led to changes university-wide, not just in the areas of communications and the arts. TheCollege of Education, he said, did an internal merger, in which they collapsed certain departments. Although on the surface, changes like the split of the School of Communications and Theater seem to be largely about budget cuts, but there are more important underlying goals. Splits and mergers eliminate inefficiencies not only in budget but also in the realm of collaboration and networking. In fact one of the major goals of the split was to allow students in both fields of communications and performing arts to engage in communities that pertain more closely to them. The virtue of doing this is that you create more opportunities,' Keller said. “You now have theater students and staff able to cooperate more closely with music and dance people, which makes putting on productions and other shows more efficient, both in cost and otherwise. There is more synergy. Many of the changes made through the course of the split have been largely in name and organization of departments. Up until the end of this academicyear. Rim Media Arts and Theater students will continue to see the same advisors they worked with while under the umbrella of the School of Communications and Theater. By next fall they will move on to new advisors for the Center of the Arts. Additionally, the change made to the Broadcast. Telecommunications, and Mass Media major exists only in name. Under the new Media Studies and Production heading the program of study, including courses, professors, and classroom locations, have all remained the same. The on(y wqy it's affected me is that the underclassmen got newer t-shirts. said Luke Harsel a sophomore Advertising major. “I guess that makes mefeel like I'm a part of some older generation and it's a good conversation starter sometimes but it hasn’t affected my classes or anybody I know. It's almost like it never even happened.’ Despite these nuances, there have been some tangible effects for a select group of students. For example. Theater and Film seniors who wish to graduate in December of 2012 will not have the opportunity to participate in a mid-year ceremony as they normally would have. They will still be graduates, but th ty will have to wait until May to have a graduation ceremony in the arts rather than in the School of Media and Communications. said Keller. “Of course there will be people that take issue with this but it is the best way to organize thingsfor now. and they will still have the opportunity to wear their cap and gown and experience the energy of the room with their peers. According to Keller, many faculty and staff members plqyed a part in the decision being made, as “splitting the school was one of many options, and the sentiments they expressed favored it over all the others. I think the split makes sense,' said Courtnty Thomas, a senior Strategic Communication major. Rim moving was a surprise but I don't think it was necessarily a bad thing. I'm interested to see how the split pans out for students who are freshmen now or who are entering Temple next year. Those are the people who I think will be really ejected.' 039 040 tt TyPer Schod of Art ttudentt Mtm Mr experience inside and outside the kb MARSSA OSWAID Katherine Lee. a Ceramics major, walked to the comer of the Ceramics lab where her Anthropologic-worthy teacups, vases and saucers line the shelves. When there are only 17 majorsofa kind, each student gets their own designated place for their delicate pieces. But what takes up most of lee's space are huge, colorfully-glazed sculptures that resemble surreal bird houses. I've been experimenting with a lot of vessels and containers.' Lee said with a giggle. 'I'm kind of obsessed with them. My pieces don’t actually have to hold things but the concept is still there.’ Among her vessels is a large, beehive-shaped house with a pastel version of Mondrian's cubes. According to Lee. the most time-consuming part of that particular project was the detailed thatching of the roof. Instead of attaching each piece with nails or glue, she used a process called scoring and slipping which is tearing up each piece 0 clay and adding a wet component like water or slip to attach it together. The challenge is to work with the clay when its not too wet or not too dry because then it won't stick. Teaching is what has stuck with I.ee. After creatingand directinga ceramics course at an all-girls camp last summer, she would love to dedicate her postcoliege career to a community-based art center or education department in a museum. Tin trying to stay away from the institution, at least or a little bit.' Lee said. I do a lot of Junctional work because process-wise, it's easier for me to do. I can sell it and I can get my work out there better and aster. For a young artist Lee has set lucrativegoals to support her ultimate goal: to create surreal sculptures. I definitely want to sell functional work to support sculpture work, lee admited. “I think I just have a bigger drive to do sculpture more so than junctional. While ceramics majors are bound by clay and paint, sculpture majors can use almost any material they desire. This is what drew Brett Williams, a senior Scuplture major, to pursue this program. I started using wood a little more,' Williams said. Tve been using lots of walls and boxes in my work. Fittingly. Williams was invited to design the 2012 Firebird, a wooden structure of a phoenix built annually or the Firebird Festival in Phoenixville. Pa. Traditionally, the phoenix is built then burned down on the day of the festival. The first one was 12 feet tall and 40 people showed up. Williams said. 'Lastyear's was24 jeet tall and 10,000 people showed up. This year it's 29 feet officially and they're projecting 16.000 people.' With free range to design the wooden structure however he wanted. Williams used only 2x8 and 2x4 planks of wood, plus tom palettes to create a feathering effect over the finished product In the future. Williams sees himself in set design. “I think it would be interesting to recreate actual things from films that don't actually exist other than in that world like this unattainable kind of reality.’ Williams said. Most of his pieces explore the interplay between dreams and reality and depth and perspective. But with the firebird on his resume, his dream of building jantastica! sets will surely become a reality. WhileLeeand Williams both have an interest in croatingscultures,another Tyler School of Art student has a different interest: Glass. Holding sticks of glass over an open flame. Morgan Gilbreath, a Glass major, held pulls the molten glass outward with a pick. 'I’ve been making these Jittlespiky things that look almost like sea urchins. Gilbreath said, l ound that i l dip them in hot wax. they create thisbeautijul pattern—perfect little striped-eveiy-millimeter dots of wax She has been workingon planting the delicatefigures inside an old car tire. It's about how nature overcomes manmade objects, like when there's a shipwreck and it’s underwater it becomes a coral reef. Gilbreath said. The environment kind of re-appropriates and inhabits the rejected thing Gilbreath's post-apocalyptic tire is part of her showcase at theStella Elkins gallery in the basement of Tyler. Although technically a senior, Gilbreath is working toward a double major in Glass and Art History, finding that although she enjoys glass-making, she has found a lucrative career in the histoiyaspecto art. This past summer, she got a chance to intern at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. A fan of conceptual art. she worked on a Contemporary Craft exhibit, an experimental turn from the usually traditional roster o events at themuseum. They're ttying to make things more interactive, so you’d go through and see all this contemporaiy craft and then at the end you could make things in the gallery alongside all these famous works of art. Gilbreath said. “It ended up being this big place where people would hang out in the gallery. It was a way anyone could be connected to the art community and we met so many people doing that.' Gilbreath has continued her role at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and would love to make it a more permanent career. Designed for business and twn-businett ttudenti aiike, fOX programs deuetop.Specific business SkiMs KUUA HEJtXAKD MARTINEZ Established in 1918. the Fox School 0 Business at Temple University has established itself as a knowledge platform for successful business leaders, professionals and entrepreneurs. Today, the business school is one of the largest, most comprehensive schools in the world as it houses almost 6,500 students, i8ofu!l-timefaculty and more than 59.000 alumni. Its programs have continually been ranked both nationally and internationally by business publications and organizations such as U.S. News World Report. Business Week and the Financial Times. Specifically. U.S. News World Report has ranked three of the school's undergraduate programs as top in the nation—Risk Management and Insurance at 6. International Business at 9 and Management Information Systems at ft 17. As for the school'sgraduate programs, its Management Information Systems Graduate Program. MBA in Health Sector Management, and MBA in Information Technology Management have all been ranked top 25 in the nation by the same publication. In addition to their MBA programs. The Fox School o Business offers graduate degrees through their Specialized Masters Programs, which look to expand students' knowledge and proficiency in a variety of business disciplines. Designed for business and non-business students alike, the specialized programs help develop specific business skills. One specific program is the Fox Master o Accountacy (MACC). In its second year, the MACC program was developed in response to the change in legislative requirements for individuals to become licensed as Certified Public Accountants (CPA). In order to become a CPA. individuals in Pennsylvania must now complete 150 hours of college credits, which is not usually fulfilled with an undergraduate degree. The one-year MACC program at the Fox School prepares students to become CPA Ready.'bridging them to the public accounting industry and expanding their job opportunities. In general, the MACC program provides students with opportunities to expand their knowledge of the professional practices in accounting auditing and taxation while enhancing their written and oral communication skills. The program also trains the student to be able to conduct research on practice issues and questions relevant to the accountingprofession as well as ethical and legal responsibilities of professional accountants. Perks that come with the program are CPA review courses that, along with the program, will prepare the student to pass two parts of theCPA exam. Additionally, students receive individual career counseling and guidance. Recently, the program was recognized for achieving 95.5 percent job placement rate in public accountingfirmsfor its first cohort. Another specialized program is the Fox Master in IT Auditingand Cyber-Security (ITACS). launched in January 2012. the one-year ITACS program was developed in response to the needs of industry for IT auditing and cyber-security personnel The program provides students with the foundation and skills to become successful in the rapidly growing field of IT auditingand is based on ISACA, a global accreditation of information systems professionals. Students are expected to complete the Certified Information System Auditor (CISA) exam at the end of their studies. As a technical discipline. ITACS has been designated as the Fox School's only Science. Technology. Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) program which allows international graduates to work for up to 29 months without sponsorship. SUKK S .FROM THE „ LOCKER ROOM IBOARD ROOM Merti SqMM Coach, Jean Dunpty, teaches Students on. the count and in the ckhSnoom fern McArdlf: When Fran Dunphy was introduced into Temple's sports world as the new head basketball coach in 2006, he made his mark in another realm of the Owl universe— the academic world. Prior to the start of that spring semester, Dunphy approached Ruth Ost. Honors Program Director, and the Deans of the Fox School o Business to propose a new course that would incorporate both sports and concepts in Human Resource Management Dunphy had previously co-taught a course at the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business and thought Temple's Honors Program would greatly benefit from somethingsimilar, “Ruth and the Deans really liked the idea so they found me and matched us up. said Lynne Andersson, an Associate Professor of Business. Society, and Ethics and Dunphy s co professor. Through this pairing. From the Locker Room to the Board Room. was bom. The course focuses on organization, leadership, and motivation of teams all through the lens of sports. Currently in its sixth year, it has proven popular among Honors students. I went into the class not knowing what to expect. said Matt Mahan, a sophomore, but I loved taking it Lynne and Coach did a great job of not only explaining the course concepts but showing how they were applied in the real world. I n fact many of the students who choose to take it neither have majors in business nor interest in sports. “We usually only have about jive business students in the class, Andersson said. There's definitely an even mix of men and women, too. It’s funny because we have a few girls now with no interest in sports and Coach Dunphy really likes to pick their brains and get their input.' The course material keeps students active and interested. One of the projects assigned to students is to attend one amateur, one college and one pro essional porting event to compare how consumerism plays a role in each. Students are also assigned to watch one sports team over the course of the semester and observe how the team evolves. ‘I chose to do my long-term project on the Pittsburgh Steelers,' said Mahan. “They are my favorite team and one I know very well, so I thought the assignment was a great opportunity to really take a deeper look. Many students actually choose to follow the Temple men's basketball team for their long-term project, as Dunphy provides access to team practices throughout the semester. Their most interestingdiscovery. though, may not relate to the evolution of the team, but of Dunphy, as he changes role from professor to coach. “I always think it's funny when students come back from practice and tell me about how Coach acts, Andersson said. He is a huge teddy bear in class but so many people say that he gives the guys a hard time on the court and has a really oul mouth. There's definitely a difference there. Despite his different approaches on the court and in the classroom. Dunphy finds success in both. His history in the Philadelphia sports community allows him access to athletes, coaches, and sports stadiums alike, which proves helpful for his students. “I always think Coach’s connections and knowledge of the city are so cool and work so well to our advantage. Andersson said. 'We've been able to give students tours of the Comcast Center, Ed Rendellfrom WIP sports radio has come into class, and we've even seen the Eagles play and had (heir coach come in. Andersson provides much of the Human Resource Management theory and Dunphy then elaborates with personal anecdotes. Professor Andersson taught a lot of the class, and Coach would share his knowledge on whatever the lesson of the day was, Mahan said. 'I'm not sure what they did for preparation but Coach was able to explain how the concepts Lynne taught applied to sports, the business world and life in general.’ Coincidentally, much of the preparation Mahan refers to comes merely from working together for such a long time. According to Andersson. over the past several years, her synergy with Dunphy has increased tremendously and each understands the other's teaching style very welL The class is only getting more fun to teach every year. Andersson said. and as long as Coach keeps coming back with his new stories and experiences, I can only imagine where it will go from here. mentoring prospective Students 'HmM Ambatiadoi'S help piwtyectm high Mooters experience Tempk KmyMcARDii Prior to the start of the fall 2011 semester, the Temple Honors Program had made many attempts to put together a group of students that could reach out to high school seniors and juniors who took interest in the program. Over to years, many names were thrown around, and after transitioning from simply Ambassadors to Honors Peer Mentors, the name. Honors Admissions and Transitions Team (HATT). finally stuck. The team was put together and is currently advised by Amanda Neuber. Associate Director of the Honors Program. As the face of the Honors Program, the HATT assists prospective students with their decision to attend Temple by hosting visits as well as a variety o Honors events. As Honors Ambassadors, students are required to dedicate at least three hours each week to sending emails and giving tours, in addition to the multiple training programs they must attend to prepare for student visits and Experience Temple Day. Because this requires a group of dedicated students. Neuber and the HATT Coordinators send out a comprehensive application, which asks students about their Temple experiences and their favorite parts of the Honors Program. They narrow down the applicants based on the responses they receive, and then put the remainder through group interviews before selecting the final team. Lastyear the applicant pool was cut down from too to just over $0. and it was ound that many students were willing to dedicate their time and effort due to their personal connection with the Honors Program. 1 wanted to become an Honors Ambassador because I was looking for a way to be involved with the Honors Program that was truly effective. said Rebecca Beard, a sophomore Honors Ambassador. “Jt is my sincere hope that I. as either a member or Coordinator of HATT. can help prospective students find fulfillment in their college decision. In fact, the ambassadors have a huge opportunity to influence the decisions of prospective students. On personal visit days, ambassadors pick up the prospective student they are assigned, as well as any family they may have with them, and take them to attend an honors class, go to lunch at Johnson and Hardwick dining hall, or tour the Honors LLCat the 1300 dorm building. 'I had countless pleasant encounters with prospective students and their families during my first year as a HATT member.’ Beard said. The first tour I gave of 1300 lastyear stands out in my mind particularly, t has stuck in my mind because that prospective student is currently a freshman here and sits in front of me in my science class.1' 046 B — Beard ’s experience as an ambassador is actually quite common. According to the HATT records, about 60 to 70 percent of prospective students who participated in their programs lastyear now attend Temple. This has been largely attributed to the success of the team's largest event—Experience Temple Day. During this event, which is held twice annually, prospective students and their amiiies visit Temple's campus to listen to speakers from the Honors program that have found success in their academic careers. Additionally, they are given access to the whole team of ambassadors for the entire dqy to ask any questions they may have about the program, as they further explore the campus and the Honors LLC. Because Experience Temple Day and personal student visits are large events and require a great deal of planning the HATT program is typically led by three HATT Coordinators. Initially, the program was run by Honors advisors but it is now run fully by students,” said Nhi Tran, a senior Honors Ambassador. The HATT Coordinators are responsible for training of the other Ambassadors, planning student visits, and coordinating many aspects of Experience Temple Day-e -en choosing student speakers. We also play a part in coordinating different aspects of freshmen orientation and Welcome Week. Each year. Neuber handpicks the three HATT Coordinators through an application process separatefrom that of the regular HATT members. Last year. Michael Madeja, Matthew Miller, and Tran led the teams 53 ambassadors. This year, however, Madeja and Miller have chosen to pursue other academic pursuits, while Tran, now joined by Beard and Ernest Grue. will serve as HATT Coordinators. Both Beard and Grue were ambassadors for HATE throughout the 2011-2012 academic year. According to Beard, her responsibilities have changed and grown tremendously as a HATT Coordinator as compared to a team member. In the future, HATT members and HATT Coordinators, alike, hope to have a continued influence on the prospective Temple Honors students they encounter. While the HATT program isn't changing this year, there are changes within the university structure that we’re veiy excited about, Tran said. New scholarship programs mean that well have increased interest and we only expect our numbers to grow. We want to continue to emphasize our visibility as an Honors Program within Temple and well be working with our HATT’s to reflect this. far Left: a Merrily smile,Akhelk frnh.a Kft mxt HATT wnt«, welcomes qoestrons Isom the parents ed a prospective Rodent left: Ajirapof 2012 HATT alkanes construct a tower of newspaper and papcnfps a s Amanda Neatser. a KAIT Mvfecrand the Associate Director of the Hoocrs ftoyam, Icob on to assess their abKty towcrtas a team.

This fail's challenge was held at Joint Base McGuire-Dix Lakehurst in New Jersey. Hundreds of cadets from over 4 2 teams competed, including those from the U.S. Military Academy at West Point. NY and The US. Naval Academy in Annapolis. Md. The act that the academy cadets from West Point and Annapolis cctually compete challenges the popular notion of the two training programs being superior. While the cadets from these schools do typically perform well, many ROTC teams have claimed victory in the past, including Temple's team in 2005. In an October2oi2.MasterSergeant ThomasJones,an operations Noncommissioned O ftcer in charge o 2nd Brigade, L’.S. Army Cadet Command was interviewed about the competition. 'The stereotype of a cadet in the academies is that they are more military ready and better trained, but competingat this level you see that the ROTC has the same exact level of competency, tactical knowledge and physical toughness, Jones said. The competition, which is held annually, pushes ROTC cadets to perform at their best, testing their skills in events such as the obstacle course, one-rope bridge, rappel tower, and commanders challenge. Additionally, it requires that the cadets navigate the base, finding each different event as a team in a limited period of time. The team that completes the course in the astest time is named the winner. This was myfirstyearon the team, and it wasa loto hard work, but definitely a rewarding experience.' said Matthew Kozar. a sophomore Advertising major. I was the last person across for the rope bridge, which meant that I had to swim across the water and then run around with wet gear for a while, butl liked the challenge. Becoming a part of the Ranger Challenge team is no simple task. According to Adam Keating one of the team captains, those who wish to compete mustgo through a rigorous try-out process. Because I was a captain this year, I was in charge of the try-outs.’ said Keating a junior and three year Ranger Challenge veteran. We basically make the cadets do as much physical work as they can over a period of two hours. People push themselves really hard, sometimes to the point of being sick.’ Many cadets train for weeks, even months, in preparation for tryouts and subsequent competition. After being selected, they begin waking up for a 5 a.m. team practice every day. which lasts a little more than two hours and is held on Temple's outdoor track. Saturday practices are even longer, lasting from about 9 a.m. until noon. This continues for more than a month. Although thisyear Temple's ROTC team didn't place as well as expected, somecadetsattribute this to difficulties in the navigation portion rather than performance in the actual events. 'It was a little bit disappointing to see our ranking.‘Kozar said, but when we looked at ourjinal time alio us knew it was because we got lost between one of the events and lost a good amount of time. If you compared our times on the actual events, we actually did reclly well.' Regardless of final ranking the competition gives the cadets an important opportunity to meet and network with other schools and regions. They gain camaraderie not only with people that they already know from school, but also with the hundreds of other cadets that train and work hard to attend, some of whom they may work with as they graduate and move on to officer positions in the armed forces. Additionally, Ranger Challenge seems to provide a positive personal experience for many of the cadets involved, creating a close team environment in which they learn to work well with their peers, communicate effectively, bond and push themselves beyond their assumed physical limits. You definitely gain a sense of friendship when you're all waking up so early and going to practice together so often. Keating said. 'It's important because being dose to your team makes you want to be there and help your friends. We're always pushing and motivating each other to do better. I don't know if my ROTC experience would have been the same without RangerChallenge.' HITTING -the Gym Students and (faculty aym m the benefits of KineSwkqy comSeS Kelly McArdle Of the many courses offered at Temple University, a select few stand out among the crowd and are popular across all majors. The two-credit introductoty courses offered by the Kinesiology department have done just that According to Temple's Undergraduate Bulletin, Kinesiology majors must take part in four Forms of Movement Courses—a physical Jitness activity, a li estyle activity, a survival activity, and an aquatics activity. The department offers various activities to fulfill the requirements, including Aerobics. Badminton, Aikido. Adventure Climbing, Swimming, Gold, and a number of other popular sports. Contrary to what some may think, thottgh, enrollment for these classes is not limited to Kinesiology majors and those studying Health Professions. In fact, they are open to all and have tended to appeal to a wide range of students. (For the Spring 2012 semester] I had only 15 credits, and I wanted to take the maximum of 17. so I asked if anyone had any suggestions, said Jonah Fowler, a sophomore Mechanical Engineering major. My friend told me to look at the classes in the kinesiology section. I noticed Adventure Climbing and—having an adventurous spirit and love for rock climbing—I signed up immediately. Taking into account the lack of hands-on physical activity in most academic programs. Fowler's eagerness is not difficult to understand. “I didn't think I'd ever get the chance to take a fun class that isn’t an academic base but actually had two credits to Jill and Jigured why not. said Alexandra Olivier, a senior Journalism and Sociology major. Unlike a number of other universities across the count y. Temple does not currently include a physical education or physical activity course as part of its general education requirement. After participating in the offered kinesiology courses, though, some students feel that makinga change could be beneficialforall. “I would definitely agree with the idea of adding a Phys-Ed course as a requirement, Fowler said, “especially considering not only to the increasing weight problem throughout the United States, but also the experience and unique learning environment [the courses] provide. The professors and instructors that teach in Temple's kinesiology program, too. believe in the worth of exercise for busy college students. Elaine O'Brien, who graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with a Master's degree in Positive Psychology and is currently a Doctoral candidate in Temple’s Kinesiology program, teaches an introductory aerobics class that incorporates concepts of positive psychology. She said that just getting out and moving can really help with the burn out college students tend to experience. I went to the UN in 2011 where the top non-communicable diseases they discussed were all a result of leading a sedentary lifestyle, O'Brien said. “Especially in this epidemic of inactivity. I think it would be really great for all students to take some kind of physical education or physical activity class. Exercise can improve cognitive ability, reduce stress, and even help the brain grow. Another important notion that O'Brien mentioned is “communifas.'which means the spirit of community or a general sense of togetherness. Many students experience this while plqying on sports teams ordoinggroup exercise, and it brings about a very positive state of mind. My class started off with learning about trusting the group we would be working with for the semester, Fowler said. We first did trust exercises that would conjunctively make our groups solve a physical puzzle and the jinal consisted of a PowerPoint made by our groups about our last weeks of climbing and our ability to act as different positions of a climbing team and work together. I absolutely loved theclassand my team. Overall, Kinesiology classes have the potential to provide a whollypositiveexperience orTempIestudents.however,somehave one major concern—they don't want the classes to lose their lighthearted quality by becoming “too academic. “If every instructor is like Elaine (O'Brien]. I would say it should be required oreveiyone to take at least one Phys-Ed class, Olivier said, who took O'Brien's aerobics class for the fall 2012 semester. But I do think that Phys-Ed classes would have to stay true to what they areand shouldn't have much 'standard'coursework involved. 050 frocn left to right: Shwtnjcffhtr epee, Anattasia feriman. a fencing MttKMC, expfatotthat fencing it we of the many WnetWogjrdatset offered.

None of this would be possible, though, without the help of experienced and dedicated acuity members, many of who are notable for their contributions to the Philadelphia music scene. Joanna Pascale. a jazz vocal instrvctorat Temple, performs in the city several times per week. In fact, she has landed a deal with the Loews Hotel in Center City, which has her performing with a small ensemble every Wednesday. Thursday, and Friday. Often, this ensemble includes Daniel Monaghan on drums and Joshua Richman on piano. Both are also instructors in the jazz program. Many jazz students believe that having teachers with these kindsofconnectionson the Philadelphia music scene gives them an important advantage as they move orward with their education. 'It's funny. said Adam Shumski. a sophomore Jazz Performance major, you don't really ever hear about people going to Temple for jazz The talk is always about people going to the New School or Purchase or Miami, but the Temple faculty is absolutely stacked as aras experience goes.' For Shumski. who has studied under both of Temple's jazz drum instructors. Monaghan and Steve Fidyk. this “stacked faculty has proven especially useful “Having a teacher who was active like Dan IMonaghanj was always helpful because he was teaching me a lot about his style, which I could then go see him apply in a real life situation at one of his gigs in the city. Shumski said. I knew everything he was teaching me was tried and tested and correct. ‘If you have a teacher that doesn't regularly perform.' said Margot Gatenby. a junior Music Therapy major, then it's kind of disappointing because they're trying to teach you to perform on your instrumeniyet they aren't even doing it. You don't have the opportunity to see them in action and think. “Wow! They really know what they're talking about because that performance was spectacular! Gatenby found her jazz vocal lessons with Pascale to be a huge catalystfor her development as a musician. Its been a really good experience with [Joanna PascaleJ as a whole.'Gatenby said. There’s always a personal, intimate feeling when she delivers the lyrics and she passes along the importance of that feeling in the song to her students. She also helped me with the technical aspects of my voice and taught me the basicso beingajczzuocalist. Before I came to Temple. I only took pop vocal lessons, which are different' This great learning opportunity given to jazz students by their notable professors doesn’t seem to end in the classroom. In fact students often get to play with their professors on gigs in the city and elsewhere. 'Sometimes if a teacher likes your playing then they'll contact you to play somewhere with them on a gig or sub for somebody else. Shumski said. I know some guys who play with this one guitar professor. Gregory Kettinger. or even Michael Boone, who is a bass professor, and I know for a fact that a lot of alumni end up playing with Temple professors. There arc tons of possibilities for meeting new people and networking while you're still in school. Interestingly enough, this melding together of students, post-grads, and professors creates a close-knit scene, which keeps talented jazz musicians in Philadelphia. Professors Monaghan. Pascale. and Kettinger. for example, all graduated from Temple and are obviously still very active. This provides a great deal of inspiration for students who wish to follow in their teachers' ootsteps. “It's good togooutand see the faculty at Temple perform because it can be inspirational and also it sets a good example for what the studentsare trying to emulate.' Ga tenby said. It’s just awesome to see somebody who’s doing what you want to do.' Shumski said. Having a pro essorlike Dan [Monaghan] showed me that it’s possible to make a living playing music. He does that and everybody at Temple does that A PLACE .TO CALL A ITS OWN The new Miitectune buMntf pkoM Studenti and (aeufy, detyite CMfu ln acoustics Km.y McArdle Beginning in the spring semester of the 2012 academicyear. Temple University's Architecture building opened its doors to students and faculty. After spendinga number of years confined to the eighth end ninth floors of what is now the Engineering building. Temples 20 20 Plan finally allowed the Architecture Program a space to call its own. We've been in the Engineering buildingsince the 1970s, said Katherine Wingert-Playdon. the Architecture Department Chair. It was crowded and messy. This new building is a major increase of space. In fact, the new construction increased the program's space from a few floors to just under 50.000 square feet with a 25 percent increase in studio space alone. This seems to be quite the victory, especially considering that the building was not originally included in the 20 20 Plan. According to Wingert-Playdon. when Temple'sformer President. Ann Weaver Hart was putting the plan together, it was not set-in-stone but rather it was a framework. The then-president really began to push for the building upon realizing that its addition to the ijth Street area of campus would open up a courtyard for both art and architecture students. H2L2. a Philadelphia firm, completed construction of the buildinginJanuary20i2.afterworkingcloselywiththeArchitecture department for many months to ensure its needs were met. The student response to the new building has been largely positive, as it provides a much larger, open space for their studio work-. The freshmen studio fin the Engineering building] was a small room with only afewdesks. so I did most of my work in my dorm. said Andrea Smith, a sophomore Architecture major. The new] space is definitely larger and much brighter with all the large windows. It's nice to be able to do all my work in the studio now and not have to carry everything around every day. Professors, too. have expressed satisfaction with the building. In an interview with the Temple News in February 2012. Robert Trempe. an assistant professor, stated: To have open flexible space is criticalfor what we do. how we teach, and what we teach.' Interestingly enough, the design of the architecture building is often used as a lesson in and o itsel Much of the structural work O54 fi in the ceilings is completely visible, making the hallways appear to be part of a warehouse. This was a very limited budget' Wingert-Playdon said. We asked that the money go into things like the labs, which are more importentfor education, but it all worked out because the exposure of that framework demonstrates to students all that has to go into building. Despite this useful quirk, the building has one noticeable problem that students and teachers can't seem to get past—the acoustics. The one thing no one likes in the new building is the acoustics, Smith said. They are not good. Everyone, including the professors. complainsabout them—I kidyou not—every single day. Even the Wingert-Playdon admitted that ‘the acoustics need work. but that's not to say that the building isn't an overall success. The positives certainly seem to outweigh the negatives in the minds of both faculty and students. Many expressed a common theme of newfound identity. We were hidden away (in the Engineering BuildingJ and it’s important that the Architecture Program be physically present,' Wingert-Playdon said. The 'Architecture' sign is one of my favorite things about the building. It’s very permanent—very nice. ’ In addition to the sign, new connections to the Tyler School of Art have proven beneficial to architecture students who. though technically part of the school previously had little access to its students and workspaces. The courtyard Ann Weaver Hart envisioned and a new hallway connecting the two buildings, now act as a meeting place for all Tyler students. Actually. Smith said, a lot of faculty and students wish the Architecture and Tyler buildings were connected in more ways.' According to Wingert-Playdon. these corridors and open spaces in the building provide a space when? students can meet circumstantially, which, she believes to be better for creative thinking and “transformative to (the Architecture Program's] culture. As we grow. I imagine well have to start thinking about improvements. Wingert-Playdon said, but we're still just moving in. It’s a good, well-lit workspace, so it really suits our needs right now.' aaowsca ARCHITECTURE arts Top: n$« twm.Ho� yfcrrM.cserteiMymis mij«. tni ZKhliyYast. t w «5 Kd Mjn� 9«mtfrt Rude . then «w g ptc n fo the w«l |CHlHWtUf Scwnib sb tt rt srt Katboiid tx wort 1J,Fwm� n end Ycsfj tow toiler. t d the ct«s's rejultr setson ftn� ! sttndrt9t.!

Beginning this semester, the Human Resource Management program at the FOXSchoolo Businesspresentedan introductorycourse witha new twist: FantasyFootball. Taught by Dr. Derek Avery, the Fantasy Football course is a variation on HRM 2501. or Introduction to Human Resource Management Avery's section conveys the same basic HRM concepts taught in the standard courses, but llers them through the lens o antasy ootba!l. I'd tayght the standard Intro to HRM course twice, but then I had the idea that u-e could use antasy ootball to introduce concepts and get students more engaged...get them to think. Avery said. After discussing his idea with a group of HRM students and getting a positive response from sports fans. Avery decided to give the course a try. He spent the summer developing a “ Soaoon Standings Final Standing curriculum that was centered on the same HRM models, but differed in that it gave students a new opportunity for hands on management experience. Upon signing up for thecourse. many students had no idea what they were getting themselves into, as the course number reads like a standard Intro to HRM course on Blackboard I thought it was just going to be a normal HRM class when I signed up for it’ said Dana Trump, a junior Sports and Recreation major. I have never played fantasy football before this class, so during syllabus week I expected it to be very interesting and different' In fact, becausesuch a large number ofhis studentshad never before encountered antasy football. Avery had to spend a good amount of time teaching them the ins-and-outs 0 the game. “It was never so much football that th y didn't know about. Avery said. 'Everybody knew the basic rules of the sport; they just didn't understand the fantasy game itself. From an outsider’s perspective, the Fantasy Football course doesn't sound very difficult—groups of students put together an imaginary team of real-life football players and score points according to the actual performance of those players. Easy as it may seem, however, thegamecan become very challenging. Students have to pay dose attention toNFLgamesso that they can makeeducated decisions about whether or not they want to add. drop, or trade certain players. Unexpected bumps in the road, such as injury, can also pop up and make the game all the more interesting. For some, though, working with classmates allowed them to navigate the course more smoothly. 1 really enjoyed working with my classmates because we were able to work off each other's knowledge to form one of the top teams in ourclass, Trump said. The fact that it's a group project makes it like a real life work environment I want to work for the NHL or NFL so it helped me see how situations would be handled in the business world of sports. Student reaction to the course has been overwhelmingly positive, which is interestingconsideringthattheman behind the course himself had never taken part in a Fantasy Football league before creating the class. There's a faculty league around the country for industrial organizational psychology, but I never took part in it because I always liked ootball more for ootbcll's sake, Avery said. However, I did realize the potential value of the course, and for my first semester teaching it. I'm pleasantly surprised that all of the students tend to really enjoy it Unfortunately, the HRM Fantasy Football course can only be offered during the fall semester, as this is when the football season starts and ends. That's the only thing about this kind of class. Trump said. I recommend it to others, especially those in my major, but they may not be able to take it since it only comes around once ayear. Although Avery says he would love to teach the HRM course through the lens of another fantasy sport, no major league seasons happen to line up with the spring semester, so. for now. he will stick with Fantasy Football in the all. 1 look orward to seeing how this season turns out for my students. said Avery, “and III definitely be teaching the intro course this way next all semester.

Through its programs, Temple offers its students ways in which they can grow personally and pro cssionally. Whether you are tiying to go abroad or write the next best musical composition, Temple offers ways to make it happen. One such program is the Diamond Research Scholars Program. The Diamond Research Scholars Program is open to current graduates from all Temple schools and colleges and focuses on providing opportunities for the students to engage in focused, mentored research or creative arts projects during the summer and all. Program requirements are participation in a two-day Undergraduate Research Institute, ten-week developmen t of a research project i n their area of interest, and completion of the project during the fall semester. During the development and completion of the project a faculty member will mentor the scholar. The project will also count as an independent study research course. Rosemary Carlson, along with 27 other students, was awarded the Diamond Research Scholarship for 2012. As a Tyler student majoring in Metals Jewelry Cad-Cam. Carlson saw that the scholarship was an opportunity to develop her independent work as well as a tool to help her understand more about thegrant writingprocess. I am so thankful for this Diamond Research Scholars Grant Carlson said, 'not only because it taught me how to produce future grant proposals but also for showing me the ever-changing nature of research projects. Grants for art are particularly fluid in nature. I've found, and my ideas changed often. I think this was amazing practice for future independent work as an artist--a path that relies heavily on grants. ellowships, and residencies. This experience has opened my eyes to theopportunitiesavailable orartistsandresearchers:! look orward tokeepingup this momentum and applying for more scholarships or independent study.’ Her inal piece entitled A Place in Space.' demonstrates the constant evolution of Carlson's view of herself as a student abroad at Rome When she applied for the scholarship, her essay described this idea o constant evolution. We tend to think of ourselves differently in new spaces: we learn about ourselves, about others' assumptions of us, and we change accordingly.'Carlson said. My series will serve as a meditation on home and identity.asan ongoing process of questioning our place in space. My goal is to have a cohesive body of work that describes this continuous search; it should be a layered experience, rather than a fixed conclusion. Returning iom her studies in Rome. Carlson s view on her personal growth and the changes she was experiencing back in the U.S. a!!owed or her art pieces to evolve intosomethingdifferent than what she had originally planned or. Now completed, the pieces display a progression and adaptation to the artist's changing vision and are displayed in the Honors Lounge in Tuttleman. Carlson is a great example of how scholarships and grants provide great opportunities for students to grow. She acknowledges that the only reason why she could afford to go abroad and study at Rome was because of her full tuition scholarship at Temple University. t) Top: Su.-4i-.j in fwii ef ;V Amctidwn Maswm, itun (At. t (.otmunaeom rw|0'.) -ctn (jr TO. jn Wiwliynj rru;: . |- J (Nljmj Anno, i VjrVrtin; nv� ): it 0:nf!

Fast-forward two more years and my seat is in an upright position on a flight to London. Walkingout of the tube that jirst day. I couldn't have been more excited to take the entire city in at once. I fell in love with this beouti ul city every day: there was always something new to see and do. London has a great balanceofboth historicareas and the up-and-coming places. Asa true college budgeter I becamea proatfndingfreebiescndevents. One thing! learned from this trip was there are plenty of great things you can find going on in your city as long as you just look. I started finding new bars to try out and other things that I never would have tried in Philly. One of my favorite things to do in London was to go to the markets. From the Junky Camden markets to the delicious Borough market (more free food samples), and even the famous Portobello market in Notting Hill, every weekend 1 could I spent exploring a new area of London. Luckily. I got a chance to visit Portobello a lot because it was dose to my internship. I was placed at Blur Group, a company that offers an exchange service in areas of marketing advertising, technology, media, and art to both businesses and professionals. I worked in the marketing office, utilizingsocial media and recruiringpeople to join the exchange groups. My co-workers were from all over Europe. There were interns Jrom Spain. Holland. France, and India. Along with my English co-workers, it was an adjustment learning how to work in a different cultural environment My co-workers taughtmea lot and Igained valuable work experience that I was able to put on my resume, as well. I had the opportunity to travel to places like Paris. Barcelona, Bath, and Amsterdam. We had a break in the fall which was amazing! A whole week off from classes to spend traveling was worth the nights we had to spend in the hostels. I went to Barcelona for a week and spent the weekend in Paris. I got to see all the touristy sights like Sagrada Famiiia in Barcelona and all the spots in Paris. I even got to go up the EiffelToweras all the lights twinkled. I had the most amazing food in Paris—so many croissants and delicious crepes that seriously rivaled my favorite Temple food truck. The Creperie. The highlight of my week was lookingat the view of Barcelona in ParcGuell. It was absolutely break takingand a moment I hope I will never forget Everyone says that studying abroad is the best time of your life, and I wish it wasn't so cliche because it's true I truly appreciate every single moment I had in London because I will never be able to experience it the same way again. This trip taught me the important lesson of living in the moment. I learned thatopeningyourself to new experiences makes all the difference. I became friends with people 1 never would have met and became very close to the other Temple students on the trip that I honestly could say I never would've had the chance to without the opportunity to study abroad. 060 y _ BACK m THE Big east Tootkdl team's confidence improves in its first year back in the Conference Dwayne Brown The Temple Owls are ready to compete with the big boys again. This 2012 season maHcs the jirst time that the Owls ootball program will be a part of the Big East conference since 2004. In recent seasons, the team has had a culture change that has led to resurgence in the program. So. the Big East was more than willing to accept the new and improved Temple University back into the conference. The university was forced out of the league eight years ago because of a lack of competitiveness and poor home attendance. That is no longer the case with the Owls making it to a bowl game two out of the last three seasonsand with fans packing the stadium to see the team play. Temple's return to the Big East started off on a good note with a 37-28 victory over the University of South Florida (USF) in their first Big East conference game of the season. The win was even more impressive coming after the Owls' two-game losing streak. The losses came against Maryland and big rival Penn State. However. Temple was able to put those losses behind them and focus on the Bulk The loss marked the fourth consecutive loss for USF. ’I thought our kids were scratching and fighting and had two losses against twogood botball teams, and our kids never blinked. said Steve Addazio. a Temple Football Coach.

Harris, a transfer running back, who ran for a season-best 133 yards and two fourth quarter touchdowns. The former Boston College standout was hampered in the previous two games by a hamstring injury. I think this week I felt my leggetting back to normal. Harris said. Christopher Coyer, the quarterback, also had an efficient game completing 16 of 20 passes for 167 yards, passing for a touchdown and running for another. The game was much closer than the jinal score indicates. The Owls trailed 7-6 offer a quarterof play because of a missed extra-point. The miss snapped kicker Brandon McManus's streak of 59 made extrapoints in a row. McManus then missed a chip shot 22-yard field goal, although he was able to recover by making a 50-yard kick to end the half and give Temple a 9-7 lead. The game really came down to a block field goal by Temple late in the fourth quarter.

They played the underdog role all season, taking match after match en route to a 19-11 (8-6 in A-10 play) record, including an upset over eventual conference runner-up Xavier in five sets. With one game left in the season, against La Salle, they had to play the underdog card one last time to sneak into the A-10 Tournament. Three sets later. Chelsea Tupuola, a senior libero. and company were heading to the big dance for the first time since the 2009 season. Going out. we all knew this was a do-or-die kind of game.' Tupuola said after the match. “It was definitely a huge goal for us that we had to come out and come out with jine. The eighth win of the season clinched the fifth seed for the Owls. Led by Elyse Burkert and Gabriella Matautia. both junior outside hitters. Temple was once again expected to lose when they took on Duquesne. 'Our freshman year when we went to A-io's, our Jirst match and our only match was Dayton, and we all left it out on the floor.' Tupuola said after the La Salle match. In what was potentially herfinal match with the Cherry and White, Tupuola led the match with 33 digs, helping lijt the Owls in a Jive-set stunner, catapulting themselves to the semi-Jinal match against Dayton. Unfortunately, it uculd be Tupuolc's only postseason victoiy of her otherwise illustriouscareer. Temple ell in straight-sets to the Flyers. To advance to the semi inals is great Canes said after the game. It speaks to the hard work that the team has done all season long. I'm really proud of them and happy for them.' Tupuola finished with 1.429 digs in her career, placingher seventh in school histoiy. The Owls also said goodbye to Jingyu Zhang and Ccidin McMiBen. both senior outside hitters. Zhang played her one and only season on North Broad this year after transferring. For the rest of the Owls, the conference tournament appearance is the next step in Canes's rebuildingprocess, especially with the Big East looming next season. But with a core made up of Burkert Matautia and Tiffany Connatser. a sophomore setter, there’s still room for more growth. tl 067 o68 0 Mm Soccer makes a trip out west, but finds Success at their home field in Ambler Nickxas Thoome In their final season in the Allan tic-to Conference. the Temple Owls proved that there is no place like home. The Owls got off to a 5-0 stort in gomes ployed at the Ambler Sports Complex this season, beating Manhattan.Somt Peter's. Howard, and then St Bonaventure end Duquesne to get off to a 2-0 start in conference play. When you play at home, you have a feeling that you can win.'said David MacWillicms. the 13-year Head Coach. There are a lot of factors that go into it: you get to sleep in your own bed and stick too routine. The success that the team has had playingat home has helped to put them in a position to have their jirst wmningseason since 2009. We don't want to lose at home.” said Cody Calajiore, a senior midfielder. Jt is the mindset of the team; we don't want to lose on our home field. ’ The Temple Ouds have also had some memorable highlights on the road, as welL This year, the team traveled to Caltforniafor two weekend matches againstCali ornia Polytechnic State University and California State-Northridge in mid-September. Temple dropped both games that weekend, but it was a memorableexperience orthe team nonetheless. It was the first time I have ever been to the West Coast. Calajiore said. The teams we played were a lot different Jrom teams on the East Coast: they were biggerand a lot more technical. The trip out West also helped in building team chemistry. It was a lot of fun.’ said Nolan Hemmer. a junior midfielder defenseman. It was a chance for everyone to get to know each other better because it was early in the season.’ We are all just meshing together at the same time,’ Hemmer said. Thisyear’steam has seen Jared Martmelli, a freshman midfielder, and Chas Wilson, a redshirt sophomore forward, lead the way in goal production, while veterans such as Calafiore and Vaughn Spurrier, a junior midfielder forward. helped set up numerous scoring opportunities. Calafiore has earned more assists than in 20J). but has also scored fewer goals. However, it is something he is perfectlyJine with. “1 like being on the assist sheet. Calajiore said. I feeI like I am contributing to the team more because the ball is being spread around.’ On the back end. MccWilliams says that Nolan Hemmer and Billy Kappock. a senior defenseman, have performed well on defense along with some help from Nolan's twin brother Sawyer Hemmer. a junior dejenseman. The 2012 season has been one of the better years' Calafiore said. It is a big turnaround from last year. MacWillicms said the team was very competitive thisyear. and added that although they did not get the results out of their games in California, the Owls returned home believing they could compete with any team. Temple won theirJimtwogamesagainstA-io opponents this season, but had to settle for a o-o tie in the third game against Rhode Island. The Owls'goal for the remainder of theyeor was to take the momentum they had already established and keep building off of it in the final games against Massachusetts. Butler. Saint Ijouis. Fordham and Saint Joseph’s. Then, the Owls will make as deep a run as they can into the A-10 Tournament, before moving into the Big East Conference next season. 070 B The young Lady Oiitfa keep up with tough opponent JomnMukrow Entering the 2012 season, the Lady Owls came in with the youngest roster in the entire NCAA, with 15 freshmen and one sophomore out of the 29 players. The young Owls have mode significant progress in just their second season under Coach MatthewGwilliam.as they had already matched theirwin total from 2011 by Oct 14. In their inalAtlanticiosecson before entering the Big East next fall, the Owls notched some key victories over A-jo rivals in 2012. The Owls earned two big shut-out wins over Duquesneand Massachusetts. Many of their matches were decided by just onegoal. Tv Seen thisgroupreallycometogethera lot more.'Gwilliam said. They have always been a tight knitgroup off the field, but they are also a tight knit group on the field this season and that’s something we really wanted to do. They really look out for each other and I think that shows with our defensive record this year. It's about trusting each other. I have seen a lot more trusting this year on the field than I saw fast year. The conference change will provide tougher opponents each match for the Owls, but the youth movement has the team more prepared than ever for such a move. Before entering the Big East, the Owls’goal was to compete and surprise many opponents onefinal time in the A-10. Having entered many matches as underdogs, the Owls accomplished theirgoa! with their nationally ranked defense and the occasional pesky offensive attack. For the 201 j season, the Owls will be losing eight seniors including: Gillian Kacsuta. Casey Greco.Jourdan Brill Kate Yurkovic. Brittany Wollner. Morgyn Sejgfried. Gabrielle Lopez, and Tara Murphy. Murphy shared time in the goal with Shauni Kerkhoff. a freshman goalkeeper, who will be returning in 2013. “It's definitely going to be a difficult move to the Big East, but I think that we are ready for it,’ Kerkhoff said. B 071 KyieNoone It was announced this year that, after 31 years, the Owls will be leaving the Atlantic 10 for the Big East conference. The Temple Owls started their last season in the A-10 with flair, winning six straight games: it was their best start since 1987. The mow was announced back in March 2012. Temple's football team was moved to the Big East, with all other sports ollowing the next year. The move should give the University and its teams a wider audience, and possibly better recruiting. This is arguably the best day in the history of Temple athletics.' said William Bradshaw, the Athletic Director, after the decision was made There ts no other conference that is a better fit forTemple than the Big East This move will benefit not jusrTemple University, its student-athletes, coaches, alumni and ans, but also the cityo Philadelphia.' The move to the Big East will mark thefirst time all ofTemple's athletic teams are in the same conference. The Owls were ranked in the A-10 preseason poll, and Khali Wyatt and Scootie Randall, both seniors, were named all A-iofirst and second teams respectively. The excitement about the big move and the Owls' recent success in the last few years had anticipations high and fans excited for the team to take the floor. By mid November, the wait was over. As part of ESPN's 24 hour tip off marathon. Randall lead the Owls to an 80-66 win in the nationally televised season opener at Kent Sate.

Wyatt led the Owls with a season high 26 points going into a Big-5 showdown with cross-town rival Villanova. Temple traveled to The Pavilion at Villanova or their pnmetime match up. The Wildcats were the Owls’ biggest test of the year, and they responded. After a slow first half for the Owls, they came back with a vengeance Randall scored 21 points and Temple won 76-61. After a big road win at Villanova. the Owls traveled to the Izod Center in East Rutherford. NJ to face the nationally ranked Duke Blue Devils at a neutral site.

The game will be broadcast nationally on CBS. The 2012-2013 season is Coach Fran Dunphy's seventh with the Owls after taking over for the legendaryjohn Chaney. Dunphy led the team to over 130 wins going into the season and will look to expand that number and add to his three Atlantic Ten Championships. Temple is lead by TJ. Dileo. Hollis-Jefferson. Wyatt and Randall, all of which are seniors, as well as returning contributors William Cummings. Lee. Nicholas Pendergast. and James McDonnell After losing key seniors. Juan Fernandez. Ramone Moore and Michael Eric, the Owls welcomed two important transfers in Dalton Pepper, a guard, and Jake O'Brien, a orward. These acquisitions along with DeCosey, Daniel Dingle, and Devontae Watson, all •eshmen. give the Owls the depth that college teams seldom enjoy. They'll take that depth into their last Atlantic 10 tournament coincidently thefirst A-10 tournament held in the new Barclays Center in Brooklyn. NY. With a mixture of new and familiar faces, the Owls are hoping to make their last year in the Atlantic 10 a great one. 072 d JajeAihms If the Owb could be summed up in two words this season, they would simply be: Victoria Macaulay. Temple's lone senior, the six-foot four-inch center is the focal point of a young and rapidly improving squad. Eight games into the 2012-13 campaign. she averaged 16.6 points and 10.1 rebounds pergame to go along with 16 blocks, ranking her in the top jive in each category in the Atlantic 10 Conference. I know a lot of pressure's going to be on me. but I'm not worried about that. Macaulay said before the season started. Coach Tonya Cardoza had to rely on her star center this season to lead an incredibly young squad that eatures six reshmen and three sophomores, including Monaye Merritt, an injured plqyer who missed last year's season with an ACL tear. The Owls only returning starters from the year before were Macaulay and Natasha Thames, a red shirt-jumor orward. who missed most o last season with a knee injury. With Macaulay and Thames manning the front court. Cardoza turned to Tyonna Williams, a sophomore guard, and May Dayan and Salome Kabengano. bothfreshmanguards. to hold down the back court with Rateska Brown. 0 sophomore guard, comingoff the bench. After five games. Cardoza turned to Erica Coviie. a freshman, to replace Dayan, which proved wise after two big wins against Bowling Green and a then-unbeaten Syracuse squad in McGonigfe Hall. The Owls overcame a double-digit deceit in the second half to take down the Orange 74-67 in one of the team's best comebacks in program histoiy. Macaulay, as she would do in jive of the team's first eight games, tallied a double-double with 20 points and 11 rebounds. Temple also got big games from Brown and Williams, who 074 d combined for 33 points. 'Every situation is just going to help her. and this is definitely going to help her. Cardoza said ofWilliams blloiving thegame. “This. I think, is going to give her even more passion, and even morejire, that no matter what the situation is she’s going to have this to build on.' As of the Owls’first eight games. Brown had 9.9 points pergame while Williams recorded 8.3 to go along with a team-high 4.6 assists pergame. Thames, despite still recovering from her injury, had 6.3 points and 7.3 rebounds pergame. For Thames and Macaulay, the season has a little extra motivation, not just because o it being their last season in lheA-10. With the graduation of Shey Peddy, Kristen McCarthy and BJ Williams, all former guards, the front court duo were out to prove the 2012-13 season belonged to them as the leaders of the team. 'Now it's like this is ouryear.'Thames said before the season. ‘We've been together for four years and now this is the year for us to play together, so 1 think were really looking for each other on the court’ Macaualy also was building off a very successjul jinish to the 2011-12 season in which Cardoza said she came into her own. despite missinga last second layup in the team's A-10 Tournament semi-jinal loss to Dayton. “I think she knows there’s a jirture for her beyond college and I think she understands that now. Cardoza said. I think she saw what [Peddy and McCarthy were expenencing during their senioryecr where people were talking about them going and playing overseas, and I think that that’s something she wants. The transformation turned Macaulay into a leader and it's the senior leadership that the Owls rallied around, being such a young squad this season.

With conference realignment set to put the Owls as an all-sports member of the Big East in 2013. this years conference playoffs were the team's last chance to capture the A-totide. But for the field hockey team, aside rom a new conference, there will be another major change in scenery. Temple will be losing Kathryn Briglia. a senior midfield, who has started in 65 consecutive games and played in 83 total games for the Owls.

Bnglia said that she is lucky to have played in 83 of the Owls’ S6games over the past four years. Tm really thankful that I was able to get through the last few years unscathed.' Briglia said. “It doesn't happen for everybody. Briglia finished the season with seven goals and a team leading 11 assists, only one assist away from tying for twelfth in Temple's record book. As the lone senior heading into the20i2 season. Briglia was named co-captain along with Mo!lyDoyle.ajunior defender. Both Briglia and Doyle were given the task of leading a team that had three freshmen and four sophomores starring. Doyle said that Briglia's style 0 leadership was a big part of the team's success. I learned from Briglia that you can only ask of your teammates what you give yourself.’ Doyle said. In other word s. if you are not always giving joo percent at all times, then your teammates will follow suit. This style of leadership is what made our team so successful thisyecr and I think that can be contributed to the way IBriglial led by example.' The season was highlighted by other big wins, including two come-fiom-behind wins. Victories over DrexeL La Salle, and Saint Joseph's made Temple the best field hockey team in the Philadelphia City Six. We had a lot of great moments this year.'Janney said. We had two amazingcome-from-behind wins where we went down 1 -3 in the second half and the team fought back to win at Bucknell and at Longwood.' Behind the leadershipo Brigiia. the Owls finished theyear 12-9. giving Janney's team their first winning record since 2007. At the end of the season. Briglia was named to the A-10 All-Championship Team. A-10 First Team. 2012 Philadelphia Inquirer Academic All-Area Field Hockey Team, and Longstreth NFHCA Division I All-Region Second Team. It was Briglia’s third time being selected to the A-10 First Team and second time on the A-10 All-Championship Team. As her field hockey career in college has come to an end. Briglia's statistics tell the story of her career, with more assists than goals. I would love to be remembered at Templeforfust working hard and beingcgoodteammate.'Brigliasaid. Talking about her future. Briglia said that her plans are to get into media, not field hockey.

I would see them playing at different games and events.” said Denzell Ivory, a junior Music Education major. They always seemed to bring a crazy level of energy and school spirit and I wanted to be a part of that. Once I joined. I was able to have those great experiences and help bring the energy and the noise to thefootballfield. Being in the marching band really trans ormed me into the Temple Owl lam today. But the bond members aren't the only ones who create energy at the games. The Diamond Gems entertain the crowd on the court and field, but also represent Temple outside of typical athleticeventsaround campus. The dance team is involved in promoting university events throughout the student body and alumni, but also attend a national competition every year. TheGems dance against some of the nation’s highest ranked teams. While the Gems represent Temple nationally, the Cheerleaders try to connect more with the student body at the games. ‘At the games, we do lots of stunts, tumbling passes, and cheers to pump up the crowd. said Lauren Sniscak. a senior Secondary Education major.

Approximately half of the crew team from the 2011 season graduated leading to a sizeable amount of novice rowers joining the team. Out of the j6 rowers on the team entering the 2012 season. 24 were either freshmen or redshirt freshmen. Because of the lack of experience. Gavin White. Head Coach, and Brian Perkins, Assistant Coach, decided it was best that the team only meed in two events in the fall season. These two races gave the coaches a chance to evaluate their new rowers and make any necessary adjustments. Despite the lack of experience, the Temple men's crew team performed well at the Frostbite Regatta and Bill Braxton Memorial Regatta, which were held on the Schuylkill River in early November. The Owls dominated the Bill Braxton Memorial Regatta. The Freshman Novice 4+ boat inished in irst place at 5:52.52, while the Frosh Novice 8+ team also took irst place with a time of 4:48.

Ky. 'Yeah we can do that.’ Bray replied. The task was formidable. No Temple cross countiy runner had ever accomplished any of the feats Mahoney was describing. But by season's end. Mahoney fulfilled all three o his goals and more. He led the team to its best season since the program was resurrected seven years ago. It’s just really been a tremendous season, and 111 say it: Travis Mahoney is the best track and eld athlete in school history, there's no doubt about it' Bray said. Til argue that he's one of the best athletes in Temple history with what he's accomplished.’ William Bradshaw. Athletic director, who was instrumental in bnngingback the cross countiy program in 2005. was very impressed with the men's team leap toa fourth place finish at the Atlantic 10 Con erence meet that was held at Philadelphia's own Belmont Piatecu. The fourth place inish was made possible with Mahoney's status as conference champion. It was very satisfying to see. in a relatively short period of time, that program coming from just beginning to being fourth in a very competitive division one con erence.’ Bradshaw said. One of the biggest reasons for success this season was the growth of the younger athletes on the team, perhaps most notably in sophomore Cullen Davis. The North Brunswick native led the team at its first meet of the season, the Friend Invitational which was held in honor of the late Roswell Friend, a former member 0 the track and eld team who took his own li e last year. ’fMy freshman season it was hard getting used to the constant competition, because every timeyougooutana raceat this level, it’s going to be tough.’ Davis said. “I fee I like last year I grew and became a tougher runner, so now I'm more prepared to push myself.' Still, the highlight of the season was undoubtedly Mahoney—and his influence on the team cannot be overstated enough. This year, we got to the conference meet and he felt good and he caught fire a little bit’ Bray added. His talent came out you saw it His determination and talent have carried him through the success he's had. He's setting the bar high for guys who are following him. and he's taking Temple athletics toa new level that it needs to be at Among the runners returning next year for cross country, in addition to racingfor indoor and outdoor track this season are Davisand sophomore Matthew Kacyon. along with junior William Kellar. All three Brays says, have made enormous strides this season. Mahoney, who is now finished running as an Owl. believes he’s leaving behind a solid group of athletes. The guys are talented that are coming up.’ Mahoney said after regionals. Tve always been in the spotlight the past two years but it's hard to not acknowledge the guys behind me. fWiliiam Kellar and Matthew KacyonJ are well ahead of where I was at two years ago. Theseguys have been tearing it up as well and they 're talented. They’ll make something of it. if they want to.' lempJrtMwrtOoaCwrtJy | MKMUlFf ¥ ti 091 New-Head Coach triei to iiUtitt confidence in Women's CroM Country team Avert Maehrer This past August, when cross county training was just weeks from beginning the program was dealt a heavy loss. Coach Mattjelley. who had run both team since 2007. announced his resignation and departure for a position at the University o Maryland. Many 0 the athletes on the women's team were taken aback at the news. 'I do think it will be a challenge,’ said Anna Pavone. junior Media and Communication student. We have no idea whaIs going on. We have no idea who's going to be the coach. So whoever does coach us this season, he or she is not going to be really amiltar with the team. But as long as we stick together, it'll work out' But a little over a month later. Eric Mobley, track and field head coach, had hired a replacement. Adam Bray, former University of Illinois Assistant Coach. The pair had met originally in 20 02 when Mobley coached for Bray at the University of Akron. With Bray's arrival brought a new style of workouts, and a new methodology in which the team practiced. 'I bring that Midwest toughness mentality to it. Bray said. 'It’s a little simpler, and I’m stressing the recovery more. Were doing hard workouts, but there has to bee balance. You can't run easy all the timeand be successful. And you can't run hard all the time and be success ul.’ Throitghout the season, the runners voiced several words of encouragement, expressing the new benefits to Bray's Midwest toughness mentality.’ 'It's definitely refreshing,' said Rayna Kratchman. senior Health Pro essions Social Work student. I think he has a little bit more of a different outlook on the training and the season. He's new to the program too. so I think he's trying to see if some different things work.” ’And I definitely think he's a lot more verbal and good at motivaring us. she added. We have a lot of young people too. so I think he's excited about having a new opportunity. The women's team was led by then- reshman Jenna Dubrow in every meet last season. Her streak of 10 consecutive meets leading the team was broken at regionals. but the Jackson. N.J. native reclaimed her top spot at the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference Championship. I'm very happy with how we and everyone else on the team improved. Dubrow said. ‘Coach Bray guided us properly and made the coaching transition smooth. Although Bray sees the men's team as further developed than the women's squad. Bray is hope irl that with a Jew changes, success will soon follow. I think the men's team isdefinitelyjirrtherahead than the women's team. Bray said. The women are young Butyou add some more pieces to the puzzle, and they can improve. A lot of it is conjidence. That contributes a lot to success, and that's what I'm trying to instill in them. ft WMmrt Cwn Cotrtrj It4m fwttlpitrd m INt f tiend tmtKontl Put 9wt tntofonil Inpwd iwinml M� «Sc 10 Oamfwsh NCAA Mki-Artmw Rfyxul Oump auhpv 4: - fCACCNinpontfupv thi pnt twuxi | W0rCttWP«SP(lOVlMD!nKT0y(H • B 093 HIGH Expectations Senior captain bilpml team with MceMfut leadership Evan Cross The men's tennis teem is very .young thisyear.

Dunigan led the Owls with a .304 batting average while Nikorak led the Owis with sewn home runs and 42 RBI’s before being selected in the 2012 Major league Draft by the Chicago White Sox But with seven seniors and eight juniors. Temple's 2013 baseball team does not lack veteran leadership. Ryan Wheeler, the secondyear Coach, has been pleased with the leadership his upperclassmen have provided. They’ve been phenomenal and I think it is one of the strengths ofour team.' Wheeler said. ! have decided not to go with assigned captains thisyear because ell of those guys have done a tremendous job of leading this fall and showing the new players how we want to do things hereat Temple. Jordan Queja. a senior infielder, and Matthew Elko, a redshirt seniorcatcher.are back with in 2012 after having solid 2012 campaigns. Queja posted a .285 batting average in 49 games while Elko hit .282 with 32 RBI’s in 48games. One of the biggest bright spots offensively for the 2013 Owls was the emergence o Nicholas Lustrino. a reshman shortstop, who posted a .291 average and a .954yielding percentage while starting49games. lustrino was named to 2012 All-Philadelphia Big 5 Team as well as the Bigs's Rookie of the Year. You can go to any of fthe seniors},' Lustrino said. “There are eight of them, so you can always fnd one and they all know what to do. |They are great guys to learn from. They’realways doing the right thingand definitely something we can follow and help us get better because they put us on their backs.' Anotherfreshman stood out in 2012: Patrick Peterson, the startingpitcher. He took on an important role in his first year with the Owls by starting in 13 games and posting a 3.51 earned run average, something that Coach Wheeler had not anticipated. What I thought was unfair to them last season was that they had to play,” Wheeler said. They were thrown into the fire and they were playing whether they were ready or not and they did a tremendous job. Going into 201 j. both Petersonand Ijjstrinoare going to be counted on to help the team in big ways according to Coach Wheeler. Now to see them come back after the summer, once again they are just more confident in their abilities. he said. They have a better understanding of what we’re trying to do. I've seen a big development in them from oneyear to the next and I’m hoping for big things from that group. Close games is one area that Coach Wheeler is looking to improve in 2013 after losinga number of tight contests Iastyear. Stephen Visnic. a redshirt senior, is returning for the Owls after posting a 2.68 ERA and leading the Owls in relief appearances in 2012. I think lastyecr we struggled in close games, Wheeler said. We didn't have the confidence or the belief that we were good enough to win those games, so thisyear I’m lookingforourteum to take it one step further and be able to close those games out and find a way to win them. ■« W O97 left's Won rt Uoost utn sat Q t utxn off by ibymj me fas fw jimtj « GeMcr firtd jiiw SUjiu. l«h jh. tni Utytflt O98 B Going out WITH A Bang Women's lacrosse team aspires to beat rival teams in the A-10 before moving to Wig Cast Mark McHugh The Temple Women's lacrosse team is looking to rebound from a dramatic, but ultimately draining and disappointing, 2012 season. Ambitious goals and high expectations highlighted the preseason last year, as dreams of the Atlantic Ten Conference Championship appeared well u ithin reach A highly team-oriented group marked by talent and toughness, the Owls began the season looking like they were about to jitlfill their predictions. At 5-0, they had their best start since 1988 when they won the national championship. But soon ajter. their hopes began to crumble as injuries and hard-fought losses cut their season short. The team finished 9-8 (3-4 A-10), just one game shy of capturing the fourth and final seed in the A-jo tournament. With several seniors and leaders departing. Temple is forced to look forward with a jundamentally new core, as thirteen freshmen are joining the mix and will be expected to step into signijicant roles. However, some of the leadership from last year remains intact, and those returning are focused on using the team's youth to their advantage. Charlotte Swavola. senior midfielder, is optimistic about her team's ability to reform an identity. I think with them |the freshmen here, we have that men tality that we can be stronger and we can bounce back jrom anything Swavola said. Bonnie Rosen. Head Coach, added that the newcomers will add depth and talent to the xoij squad. 'Our freshmen class brings a huge punch in termsof numbers and talent and different looks all over the field, Rosen said. However, if this team is to succeed, it will need to rely on its trusty veterans, who have already endured a gritty 2012 season and have the taste of defeat fresh in their systems. Swavola who scored 19 goals and added 15 assists last season, is the centerpiece of this veteran core, but she is surrounded by a few key returning stars, including Jaymie Tabor, junior attacker. who scored 21 goals for the Owls last season, and Jacqueline Mercer and Kellee Pace, both senior midfielders, who combined for 21 goals in 2012. To these vets, this is more than just another season to put in the books: It is an opportunity to settle unfinished business. Two thousand thirteen will be the final year Temple competes in the A-10. as all sports are moving to the Big East in 2014. Persona I grudges are on the line. There's always that sense of urgency with senior year. Swavola said. 'But with the A-10 thing, weal! have our personal rivalries with other teams. Right now we're tied with UMassfor A-10 championships, and it's our last year here. We want to leave it having owned it. no question.' Undoubtedly, the Owls are out to settle the score with their A-10 comrades. ‘Especially because it's our lastyear in the A-10, we want to prow to everyone that we're not just a young team, that we can I win the A-10 championship , Tabor said. Coach Rosen is similarly confident, but assumes a more pragmatic approach. She said she believes the ultimate key to the Owls'success will be their ability to handle adversity. The real key will be how resilient we are when obstacles are presented. Rosen said. If we're going to be good, we're going to use rivalries fojuel us. but make sure we treat each gamc or what it is as an opportunity to win.’ Rosen added that she believes she has agroup tha t is mentally capable of running the table, judging by her observations thus far. This is a really hardworkinggroup.’ she said. “Day in and day out. they bringa high level of play, a high level work ethic. They're really a great group of people to coach. ’ The challenge is going to be on me. as the coach, to keep us practicing in a way that prepares us to win. short term and long term.

Theclub nowpracticesatthe JenTri Stables at Stepping Stone Farm in Bucks County. PA This year has been ready great for everyone.' said Sarah Jagiela. the clubs President. “Last year was a really difficult transition year for us as we moved barns and competition regions and had a multitude of new members join the team. It was a bit rocky at times, but we still managed to make the best of it. The club has jo shows scheduled for the 2012 year; they've already competed in six English shows and seven Western shows. Following thecondusion of the regular season during the spring semester, the team will compete in the regional postseason. something that several members have already accomplished. “We have ten shows in each discipline per season, so well have three more Western shows and four English shows in the spring semester.“Jagiela said. “Then we move into the post season. We already have a handful of girls who have qualified for regionals in both disciplines and hopefully well have some members make it further. Another goal for the Equestrian club in 2012 is to raise awareness about the club within the school Jagiela believes that, because Temple is located in a city, that Equestnan club often gets overlooked. In general, we just want to raise awareness of the club,’Jagiela said. As a city school I guess people wouldn't think we doanything arm related.butwecreoneo themost competilivesportsclubson campus.

The team participates ingruelingdrillsand utilizes strategy that many would not expect to go into Frisbee. The club meets Mondays and Wednesdays for practice, scrimmage on Thursdays and spnnt practices on Sundays. Ultimate Frisbee. a combination of football and frisbee. requires the athletes to sprint constantly, much like in soccer. 'Ultimate IFrisbeej is such a unique sport which blends many other sports together.' Ng said. There's constant moving and running like soccer. When you get the Frisbee. you have to establish a pivot like basketball. There are also touchdowns (scores) and Hail Marys (hucks) like ootbcll. and there are constant direction changes like in tennis. This year's dub consists of 25 consistently participating members with about 40 members in total So far. they have competed in four Frisbee meets, placing second at both “Autumn Sly at Princeton University and 'BigMoose'al Millersville University. The club placed i th at Rickadelphia which was held at UniversityofPennsylvania and 15th out of 28 teams at the 'Pada Mosh meet held in Kennett Square. Pennsylvania When asked what he has most enjoyed about the season so far. Ng pointed to the leadership ofsome of the more experienced participants. Four players played club ultimate outside o Temple this past summer and all he said. 'It really adds a lot of experience, and helps when teaching new things. Most of these people have really stepped up and have shown leadership to the team, which is also great.' The team also eatures a fair number of new players which has led toa lecrningcuive. But. according to Ng. the teams have begun to play together better as they head into the spring season. The new players have been antastic! I really enjoy watching the new players grow and get accustomed to the school and the sport.' Ng said. Watching the interactions between teammates and people reallygetting to know each other. I think with that, people really want to perform better and that is why we got the two second place finishes this year.

This is. however, is pretty common for the average member ofTem pie's Insomnia Theater. Insomnia Theater performances revolve around the premise that everyone gets together on a Friday night for casting then the writers stay up all night writing one-act plays, the actors and directors rehearse all day Saturday, and then there is a performance of those one-acts on Saturday night. 'Insomnia is an amazing fusion of the best kind of people coming together to put on a great show and it's wonderful for everyone involved. said William McGee, the Marketing Director of the organization. On the Friday before the show, a dinner is hosted for the six executive board members in order to decide on a theme for the performance. They all write down ideas on slips of paper and draw from a hat to decide the theme. In the morning, the ojfcers read through all of the scripts before the actors and directors start working with them to make sure they ft the theme correctly. Then they watch each group practicingand give feedback. Naturally, in a setting like this there is always massive chaos nght before a show and to this day. there has not been a show that started on time. Insomnia is chaos, but its the kind ofehaosyou like,'said Iris Ong. the Community Outreach Director. In November. Insomnia Theater had their first show of the year. The theme for that show was simply 'bond' and it took place in the Underground of the Student Center. Folding chairs are set up in rows throughout the room. Lights and music for the show are manually controlled. The mood is set. Matthew Busty, a member of Insomnia since its creation. stands in the back of the center aisle controlling the camera that videotapes the performance. The short plays for that specifc show had tides like 'Bound Ity Disorder' and “The Chemistiy Club.' Most of the plays have a comedic undertone and at the very least have witty, sometimes sarcastic, and always hilarious jokes throughout Just a half hour before the performance is scheduled to start someone is still prepanng the programs, the officers can be seen running around dealing with every single thing that could have gone wrong, and actors can be seen huddled in various corners practicing their lines or in a back room finalizing their costumes. Started in the spring of 2010 by last year's Homecoming King, Matthew Flocco. Insomnia Theater has roughly 50 core members and lots of other students that occasionally participate in the performance weekends. Last year, for the f rst time it was dear to those who aren’t members of InsomniaTheaterjust how suocessfi! their community outreach program is. Thef rst spring performance featured a play called insomnia theater 'Diamond in the Rough' that was written and performed Ity a group of students rom the Multicultural Academy Charter School in North Philadelphia and directed by Amanda Shaffem. an Insomnia Theater member. 'Insomnia's community outreach is like all the best parts of theater and all the best parts of charity,’ said Juliana Small, the former Outreach Director. It's a lot of work but it doesn’t feel like it. and watching the kids in the program discover their talents is immensely rewarding' Members of the outreach team work with students from the Multicultural Academy Charter School every day after school Although the organization may seem chaotic. Insomnia ITieater is currently a four-star organization, the highest possible designation, and in 20� . Temple awarded the group with its Best NewStudent Organization Award.

This small group of ghost hunting, paranormally inclined students meet weekly to discuss the mysterious workings of the other side. Our main goal is to teach people the do's and don'ts of paranormal investigating, or ‘ghost hunting' as it's more informally known. said Matthew Bussy. a senior Rim and Media Arts major and President ofT -Lights. We hope to capture evidence that there is such a thing os spiritual energies. At their Wednesday night meetings.groupmembersoccasionally take turns sharing PowerPoint presentations about famous haunted houses and buildings and discussing how to determine an authentic paranormal phenomenon from a man made hoax T-Lights is a relatively small group still. said Benjamin Roth, a Treasurer of the club, but our presence on campus is becoming more well-known and will hopefully expand in the future.' The ij-member group is very small but that is not necessarily abed thing “We don 'twant to have too many people in the club. Bussy said. It's always mconvenienr to ghost hunt with a ton of people. The smaller the better--and the creepier.' The group often investigates infamously haunted buildingson campus like Mitten Hall and Elmira Jewries Residence Hall, where Bussy lived sophomore year and had multiplecreepy experiences. 'My friend and I were playing with a Ouija board in front of the basement door downstairs--on the side that students aren't supposed to go.'he said. We were getting a bad vibe. I asked 'What do you want to do to my friend' and the planchette moved and spelled out K-I-l-L Each investigation is carefully recorded with photos, videos and Electronic Voice Phenomenon (EVP) recordings, on which some say that voices of spirits and ghosts can be heard. T-Lights does not spend all their rime on Main Campus. however. In such a historic city like Philadelphia there are plenty of opportunities to investigate some of the most paranormal sites in the country. 'My favorite memory was investigating at Fort Mifflin. said Taylor Shuster. T-Lights' Treasurer. We had a really great time and I walked away from it with more experience and some pretty awesome stories. T-Lights has taken trips to local cemeteries. Fort Mifflin and Eastern State Penitentiary. We went on an awesome investigation at Fort Mifflin last May. Bussy said. Wegot the whole place to ourselves for half the night and lots of unexplainable stuff happened. I'm pretty sure that I actually saw a ghost when we were investigating the dungeon during one part of the night, then again, and as a club we always have to try and debunk, it might have just been my eyes playing tricks on me T-Lights does not just hunt for ghosts.

Yes. Lopez got to spend 10 minutes watching over the Firs Dog. Bo. Howdoesa kid from Hazelton. PA get so lucky?Thoseiominutes were just a few spent in the White House, where he was an intern in the Management Administration Office. Although he legally can't talk much about the day-to-day of the internship, Lopez is quick to say. with a big smile on his face, that he's had some amazing opportunities. Not bad for a Political Science major who was only lukewarm about coming to Temple in the first place. When I was first looking at schools. Temple wasn't burning in the back of my mind like D.C was. said Lopez former president of Temple College Democrats. I realfy wanted to go to D.C because I thought all the opportunity was there, but it turned out all the opportunity was here. Looking back on the past ouryears.I know J didn't make a mistake. I couldn’t be happier with where I ended up. Just before Lopez heeded to D.C. for his prestigious internship, he ran for president of Temple Student Government under the name Temple Advocating for Progress (TAP). Temple's at a point right now where every things about to change - everything's about to become just different - and 1 wanted to play a role in that. Lopez said. The campaign lasted about two weeks and ended in two-day election which TAP won by 500 votes. Now that he's got the job, Lopez loves it despite the ull-time commitment. It doesn't really let up but I'm okay with that. Lopez said. I like to be busy; i like to havea lot on my plate. That's how I work best. When not workingas the Temple Student Government president or part-time Owl Ambassador. Lopez tries to fit in as much family time as possible be ore his post-graduation move to D.C. While his ultimate goal is to become a senator. Lopez is excited to work in any capacity in the political realm. tl Katie Danielle Stephen liana lyuana Angela Taylor Fiorino Fish Fisher Fishman Fletcher Flinn Forlano Eugenia Rebecca Julian Karen Evetha Starsha Colleen Forteza Forward Fowler Fradkin Francois Frierson Fries Brittany Janet Mitchell Holly Patrick Keona Christina Fritz Fritzmont Frizzell Furman Fusaro Gabbadon Gable Sean Julian Abigail Maura Lauren Gale Galette Gall GaHagher Gallant Sylvian Allison Garbutt Garcia Alicia Garder Arlene George 150 Kiara Gattis Lauren Gaudite Rachel Gendelman Coretta Gerould EFizabeth Giampa Nicole Lorenzo Stuart fbone Johnie Michael Nilda Gloria Gobah Tiffany Goforth Allison Goldstein Alexander Gonzalez Jose Gonzalez MicheWe Goode Keondra Goodie Thomas Augusta Kevin Laura Daniel Laura Jessica Green Greenfield Gresh Grieco Griscom Gross Gruenling Brittany Isabel Eveiia Patrice Audrey Justin Melissa Guamiere Gutwirth Guzman Habermann Hagans Hall Hall e- d 151 Susan Hat!

Lauren Bowmen hod the opportunity to witness the plight of the Chileon Student Movement, a student-led protest that had brought awareness of the unfair conditions in education across the country. Bateman, a Spanish and Communications major, has experienced more than she can ever imagine during her summer abroad in Chile. I knew I wanted to study abroad in a Spanish speaking country.' Bateman said. “I’d already been to Spain and I have been in Central America, so I wanted to be in South America.' Bateman was one of many students across the country that conducted research over the summer under the Diamond Research Scholars Program, which provides aid to students who want to conduct such investigations. Bateman returned the following year to analyze how the social and traditional jorms of media corresponded to the student protest which had become a unanimous voice that demanded change for a more suitable education system across the country. 'When I went bade this summer. I did a lot of interviews with people who are involved in the student movement—students who were involved in the federation, some professors, some people who studied social movement and the role that media plays.' Bateman said. Bateman's research included being in the midst of the demonstration, looking at Twitter feeds of the protest, and correlating them with the perspectives of protesters in the rally. Du ring her first stay in 2011. Bateman did not have the opportunity to march in the movement due to her fear of being deported out of the country. However, she had her opportunity to get more involved with the rally thisyear. ‘Itwasagreat project for me.’ Bateman said. It kind of integrated both of my majors pretty well.’ Bateman has not finished her official conclusions of her project yet. She explained how certain people or corporations around the country are woricing together, and controlling the media. As graduation day approaches. Bateman already has plans concern ing her future.

Dennis Playdon. an adjunct professor of Architecture at the Tyler School of Art. uncovered die forgotten treasure on North Broad Street two yean ago. The first thing I thought when I saw the gym was that it was amazing the city of Philadelphia hadn't done anythmgyetPlaydon said. Playdon implemented the gym into his 'Introduction to Architectural Preservation' class as an investigatory project His students spent a year digging up the history of the building and leading an effort to save the gym. He feels that the gym could once again be a positive presence in the Philadelphia community, especially for local youth. Additionally it could become a major tourist attraction, with the potential to draw national attention, he said. 'It is hugely important that the memory of Joe Frazier stays in this region, both the local neighborhood and Temple University.'said Playdon. The efforts of Playdon and his students led the gym to receive national attention and earn a spot on the National Trust for Historical Preservation s list as one of the country's eleven most endangered historic sites. Playdon's students have been working toward the gym’s designation with the Preservation Allianceo Greater Philadelphia, which would prevent the buildingfrom any destruction if accepted. Tyler Architecture majors Ann Dinh and Michael Baker have also been croatmga nomination or the gym on the Philadelphia Register of Historic Place, a high-status recognition. I think preservingjoe Frazier's gym is important because it is a significant part of the Joe Frazier legacy.’ Dinh said. “A physical reminder of the work that Frazier has achieved: it was part of the North Philadelphia community and needs to be again. Playdon and his students are glad to see more people becoming interested in the project Dinh added how the gym is part of both boxingand Philadelphia history. I hope this recognition helps change the building’s status and bring the building to a state that Mr. Frazier would be proud of.” Dinh said.

Though Mirronvall Productions began that early on. the group didn't fully take shape until Halloween 2011. During herjunioryear at Temple. Hannon and her crew began to produce what are known os “minutes. They are one to our-minute short jilms that Mirrorwal! produces each month that showcase different types offilms and styles o jilmmaking. The production group consists o jilm majors, but also features those on the other side of the spectrum such as Criminal Justice. Anthropology. Music Composition and Public Relations.

Hannon could hardly keep the smile off her face as she periodically sipped her white chocolate mocha latte. I can't handle how great jthe students involved] are, she said. The dedication makes me want to cry. Currently. Mirrorwall has three 15-minute films currently in pre-production set to film in the next two months, as well as an ongoing documentary. But what's their next big project you ask? My senior thesis jilm. 'Doing Alright.' is currently our largest crew and biggest undertaking so far. Hannon said.

Swift said. “I live, breathe, eat and sleep HerCampus. 1 put so much time and effort in this organization and I loveall the members. We have formed a relationship. I will crul y miss it when I graduate' When Swi t become president, things were slightly in disarray for the fledging organization.

But ever since then, we have grown stronger and stronger and gained more membership and clout on campus.’ she said. It is amazing to see the transition.' Swift added how enlightening it has been to be around so many like-minded women who want to uplift and empower others. Together, she and the women of Her Campus have been able to share stories, laugh together, and learn so much from one another. The magazine has taught me hard-work, dedication, determination, organization, humility, patience the list can go on and on. Swift said J have learned so many valuable tools rom this organization that haw not only propelled me professionally but personally. This has been such a humbling and an amazing experience. Anticipating life after graduation. Swift is very open minded to the wide range of opportunities a degree in communications has to offer. A position in communications for a nonprofit organization is ideal, however. Swift added that she would also like to write for an online magazine seeing that writing is her irst passion. I am really willing to go wherever the wind takes me. Swift said.

The creation of Media Meltdown began Sesay’s sophomore year at the university while looking for new opportunities to get involved around campus. One morning Sesay thought about the idea of creating an organization where the purpose would be to provide students from all aspects of communications with a creative platform to gain experience, and utilize and refine skills taught in the classroom. 'Rhonda Elnaggar was the only one who saw the potential in the idea.” Sesay said. Together we built Media Meltdown Productions. Sesay and Elnaggar chose the name. Media Meltdown, because they wanted it to be collaborahve in which all enhties could become one unit in order to produce creative and amain ng products. As Sesay prepares to depart from Temple, she explained how Media Meltdown faces a challenged future. 1 want Media Meltdown Productions to take over the Temple community and be the main media organization on campus that osters effective collaboration,” she said. Sesay plans on seeing that Media Meltdown continues togrowand never lose the shared vision of community that has already been implemented. As for herself. Sesay hopes the she can further utilize her gifts and become a film directorand own her own production company. ”1 believe that this experience has definitely shaped me into a better leader. Sesay said. T strongly believe that leadership is ultimately about creating a way for people to contribute to malting something extraordinary happen. 178 B Zhixin Stephen Kathryn Katrina Briaone Natalia Thomas Yu Yuan Yuen Zabat Zack Zaichlyi Zamonski L Jianchun Kristin Yilmai Crystal Yoo Langley1 Young Matthew Younker Angeka Youwakim Eunke Yu 180 0 I tt 181 ,------------------------------tjalmine QibiM Congratulations to my beautiful. intelligent and courageous dough t«f You area star and I am so very proud of you!

It seems like with a blink of an eye, you were driving toffrom High School and now you are graduating from college! Theyears have gone by too fast, but we have truly enjoyed the precious gift you gave us - beingyour parents. As you enter this next phase of your life, you will forever be a part of us, for we carry you in our hearts. We know that many thoughts and feelings are going through your mind, and there are some feelings of fear too, which is normal. This is an exciting time for you, but we are confident that you have acquired everythingyou need to blossom and makeyourwayin life. It'syourtimeto shine and make your mark on the world like no other. The following poem by Marianne Williamson seems to say it best: We Are Powerful Beyond Measure Our worst fear is not that we are inadequate, ourdeepestfearisthat we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, 'who am I to be so brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?'Actually, who are we not to be? You area child ofGod:yourplayingsmall doesn't serve the world. There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. Wewereborn to make manifest theglory ofGod within us. It is not just in some of us, it is in everyone and as we let our own light shine we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated rom our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others. Love Always. Mom and Dad mtp Elijah.

Italy and we took you home to our little apartment You cried quite a bit, but when your Dad sang you “Cincinnati’s Dancing Pig, you usually calmed down. I would walk the floor with you and so would your Dad. Then when you were only two years old. there was the accident when you brokeyourleg. But you didn't let a cast stop you for long. I remember you were pals with Sam next door when you were a toddler, then you had play dates with Andrew and Franco. You used to love swinging on the swings when we spent our summers at the cabin in Michigan. Remember our canoe trips and biking around Mackinac Island? You've grown up to be a fine young man. I was so proud when you graduated Central with prizes and honors. You did really well at one of Philadelphia's finest schools. And now that you are graduating from Temple University, I know that great things are ahead for you. You've worked hard and you deserve praise and recognition for your achievements. Whatever path you choose, you know I will support you. I only wish your Dad was with us now to see all you have done. Maybe he knows about it anyway. He would be very proud of you now. just as I am.

In real life every day you graduate. Graduation is a process that goes on until the last day of your life. If you can grasp that, you'll make a difference. Your time is limited so don't waste it living someone else’s life. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know whatyou truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. An investment in knowledge always pays the best interest. Your schooling may be over, but remember that your education still continues. Papa mlr 201 ChilaquilfTEX Issac Homero, We loveyou!

Although I was on the staff last year, becoming Editor-in-Chief this year proved to be a real challenge. I'm so glad that I got the chance to work with such an amazing staff. We started this academic year off with the right mindser and we were ready to divide and conquer. I admire everyone's dedication to this book and I'm so glad that the entire staff was as enthusiastic as I was to create this edition of the Templar. I really want to thank the staff for bearing with me as I worked out a few kinks in organization and responsibility throughout the year. I d also like to thank our adviser. John DiCarlo, and everyone else in the Temple community that helped us create and produce this book. The 2013 Templar Annual Yearbook is vety special to me and I hope it has been a memorable year for all. I hope we can all look back through this book 50 years from now and remember the amazing times we had here at Temple University. Always remember to celebrate the present and remember the past. In that, our legends will truly live on.
