 Check Out Some Rituals Temple Owls Do Before Came Day! ootball game day is an important part of students’ lives at Temple I niversity. Game day typically includes tailgates, j food, cherry and white clothing all over the Lincoln Financial Field, and of course. Temple football! Students love game days because they get to celebrate with their fellow classmates and watch their Temple Owls light for a win. Some students, alumni, and players themselves have certain “game day rituals’’ that they do before every game that they believe brings the team good luck. If you are a part of the recruiting team for Temple football, like sophomore spoils and recreation management major, Jimmy Delgatto, Richie's might be a part of your routine on game day. “My game day ritual is always starting olfgameday with a breakfast sandwich from Richie’s. I get it for free because I work for football. Delgatto said. Other students, such as sophomore accounting and finance major. Katie Riesberg. use social media in order to get in the game day spirit. “Before game day, 1 like to get ready for the tailgate and then send a good morning snapehat that says, ‘It’s game day!’ to all my streaks. This gets me in the game day spirit because it shows people that I bleed cherry and white,” Riesberg said. Even though she is only a freshman, Brittany Grant, a theater major at Temple, already has a game day ritual that she believes will always lead to a victory for the Owls. “Every Temple game day I put on my temple gear, head over to the stadium, and right before I go into the stadium, I kiss my ticket for good luck! It's worked for every home game that I’ve gone to so far and it’s going to keep working!” Grant said.

Health Sciences Campus Though it is only three short subway stops from Temple University’s Main Campus, many students forget about the Health Sciences Campus. Just up Broad Street, from Alleghany Avenue up to Tioga street, many professional programs including the Lewis Katz School of Medicine, the Maurice 11. Kornbcrg School of Dentistry, the School of Pharmacy, the College of Health Professions, and Temple University Hospital offer classes and resources for students at the Health Sciences Campus. Many of the programs offered at the campus are for graduate students. Because of this, many of the graduate students do not have to live around Temple University Main Campus. Some of these students choose to live in different locations around the city of Philadelphia such as South Philadelphia, Fairmount and Spring Garden, and commute to their classes at HSG. One of the few undergraduate programs that is required to attend classes at both main campus and Health Sciences is the nursing program. Michelle Devancy, a sophomore nursing student, takes the subway even- Friday morning to the Health Sciences Campus to attend her health assessment lecture and lab. “Traveling to HSC is actually not that inconvenient. 1 love to get a break from main campus and be able to use the ad vanccd resources they provide in order to better my nursing education,” Devancy said. Like main campus, the Health Sciences Campus has many unique places to explore and to grab something to eat. Plat es that accept Diamond Dollars include Einstein Bagels, Greens to Go, and Koffce 1 louse in the Medical School, as well as, Starbucks, City View Pizza, and the Hospital Cafeteria. Conveniently, there is also a Subway, Philly Soft Pretzel Fat tory, Dunkin Donuts, and Rite Aid across from the Dental School on Broad Street. Another inexpensive, quick option for food includes the very popular food trucks that line Broad Street. Whether
