Demands Without Grounds

TECH Center

In Tuesday’s edition of the Temple News, Ann Hyclak did a news story on DISorientation, a seminar held by the Progressive Student Coalition, made up up four campus student groups.

This Coalition has made 14 demands of the university. I can agree with some of the demands as being worthwhile and necessary. For example, doubling the money given to Multi-Cultural Affairs is a great idea, and certainly in keeping with the image Temple likes to have of itself as a diverse campus. Also, making the available classes at Temple more balanced against Eurocentrism would be an initiative that could keep Temple astride of academic diversity.

Some of the demands, however, two in particular, were simply not grounded. First, the demand for Temple to freeze tuition where it is. Second, the demand to open the TECH Center and Paley Library to the public.

Untitled-1.gifThe following stories weren’t on the cover, or treated with a tease online but still deserve your attention:

Student loan debt creeping upward? You’re not the only one. News takes a look at the increase in student debt. And although the assault in Anderson overshadowed it, (and rightfully so) Temple’s alert system was used for the first time this week.

In Opinion, an Art student needs your help and the Editorial Board offers their thoughts on the DISorientation that was the lead story in News.

Temple Living features more fashion commentary from Mary C. Shell about Coach shoes. Earlier this week, she covered Uggs on this very blog.

Out and About has two Online Only articles running. One takes a look at the user driven review site freshoutmedia.com, the other profiles the strange Mutter Museum where pig fetuses are a common site.

In Sports it may be easy to miss along side the 2007 Basketball Preview, but the Fencing team hosted the Temple Open and the Field Hockey team was upset in the A-10 playoffs.

Everything You Wanted To Know About Temple Basketball (But Were Afraid To Ask)

Mark Tyndale and Dionte ChristmasNow that the calendar has hit November, it’s time for Temple’s men and women’s basketball teams to hit the hardwood.

This Tuesday’s edition of The Temple News will include a four-page basketball preview insert which will tell you everything you need to know about the Owls before the season tips off for the men at Tennessee on Nov. 9, while the women host Central Michigan at the Liacouras Center on Nov. 12.

Here’s what readers can expect to see in Tuesday’s basketball preview:

  • A look at both team’s spark plugs: senior Mark Tyndale for the men and senior Lady Comfort for the women. Tyndale was named a captain this season, a far cry from where he was last year, when he missed the first six games of the 2006-2007 because of academic ineligibility. Can he help the Owls improve on last season’s 12-18 record? On the women’s side, 2007 A-10 Player of the Year Kamesha Hairston has graduated and senior Lady Comfort is expected to take on the bulk of the offensive burden for the Owls now. How will the 6-foot-2 center handle her new role?
  • The men’s squad flourished on offense while getting torched on defense last season. Will the addition of highly-touted freshman center Lavoy Allen help the Owls stop teams this season?
  • The women’s team nearly made a Sweet 16 appearance last season before falling to Duke in the second round of the NCAA Tournament. With Hairston and Fatima Maddox gone, do the Owls have enough to get back to the Big Dance – and if they do can they advance past the second round for the first time in Staley’s eighth season at the helm.
  • Previews of the rest of the A-10 competition for both the men and women.
  • The Owls will not have the services of freshman Michael Eric after the NCAA Clearinghouse ruled that he was ineligible this season. What exactly is the NCAA Clearinghouse and why do coaches have a problem with it?

The preview will also include full team rosters, schedules and more.
