You Should Always be Camera-Ready…

Posted on by

…especially if you’re front row at a game that’s being broadcast on ESPN.

Case and point: Sophomore Cherry Crusader, Charlotte Jacobson.

This is what our cameras caught,

Charlotte cheering for the Owls while they have the lead.

Still in the lead, Charlotte has nothing to do but smile.

…And this is what ESPN’s camera’s caught

After Temple's loss to Penn State Charlotte forgets the game is being broadcast on national television.

Don’t let this happen to you! Remember, someone’s always watching…

A More Transparent Temple Student Government

Posted on by

Sometimes Temple students find themselves asking “What does TSG do?”

Well students, look no further than the newest addition to the long list of photo blogs of people doing stuff: ColinSaltryDoingThings.tumblr.com
Now we get a chance to see what our student body president is up to and hopefully have a more transparent TSG.

Here’s a little preview!

If you’d like more people-doing-things blogs I’d also suggest kimjongillookingatthings.tumblr.com

Enjoy!

AnnWeaverHart.com

It may come as a surprise to some of you to find that AnnWeaverHart.com isn’t a link to our president’s Tumblr, Livejournal or any other personal website telling us all things Ann Weaver Hart. Instead you’ll just get redirected to Temple’s homepage.

Is this supposed to be someone’s idea of a joke? (Because it’s pretty hilarious) Or is it Temple’s way of making sure no one uses the domain name for negative reasons?

Pro-Palestinian Demonstration

Posted on by

From the river to the sea,
Palestine will be free.

Students might hear this chant on their way past the Bell Tower. It’s drawn quite a crowd. It’s pretty cool to see students
passionate about something.

Check out more information about the event here, and check back in next week’s issue of The Temple News for full coverage.

A Castle on Beury Beach?

Posted on by

At some point during the night a small castle was put up on Beaury Beach, and no one appears to have any idea why it’s there.

The doors and windows of the castle are secured with heavy duty padlocks so you can’t break in, and don’t try to climb it! Freshman urban studies major, Ed Budnick tried climbing on top of the castle to get a better view but hurt his hand on one of the nails sticking out of the roof.

Budnick then tried to get on the roof by climbing onto one of the tree branches hanging over the castle but that attempt failed as well when he saw that the roof was probably too weak to support his weight.
