r/Temple

I’m currently at 12 a week and thinking about going up to 15 swipes, but I’ve been told that I don’t need it considering all the food options around Temple.

they have a range and im thinking if it falls on the lower end of the range, i could ask them to bump it up a bit. is that ethical?

Hey, I’m Theo, 28M, and this is my third attempt at college overall (fall 2016 at ESU as a theatre major, fall & spring 2024 at CCP as an art & design major) and I’m mostly looking for advice because of how much being in a classroom setting has changed in a decade.

Does anyone still hand-write their notes, or is it expected to have a laptop with you in class? I have no issues with needing a laptop for class, I just feel like i dont retain anything when typing my notes vs taking them by hand.
Any general “surviving college as a working adult” advice is also VERY welcome

I’m also posting this to see if there’s also anyone here thats 25+ and getting back into school because I’d like to meet more people my age, and I’d be lying if I said I’m not mildly self conscious about the fact that im going to be roughly a decade older than the majority of my peers 😅

Here’s my class schedule in case anyone that sees this is gonna be a classmate of mine:

Hiya, so I’m transferring to temple this fall and will be living off campus. If you live off campus, do you think it’s worth it to have a meal plan, like the smallest amount even? Me and my parents were debating and I’m interested in what others think, like if they got a meal plan and if they used it or not.

The Olson Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory at Temple University is conducting a MRI research study on the neural mechanisms of the creative process. Our project, titled "Philadelphia's Got Talent," is a two-session study in which you will complete a series of creative tasks on video.

We are looking for young adults who:

• Are fluent in English

• Have no developmental or neurological conditions

• Completed K-12 schooling in the United States

• Are eligible to be scanned in an MRI scanner

Participation involves traveling to Temple University for two sessions, one week apart. Each session will last approximately 2 hours.

• $50/hour for in-scanner testing

• $25 completion bonus for full compliance and participation in both sessions

• All compensation is provided as virtual Visa gift cards, which can be used for any online transaction.

* Pay is prorated to the nearest 15 minutes

We understand that parents have busy schedules. You are welcome to bring your child(ren) to your study session. We will be happy to supervise them and will have activities available to keep them engaged while you participate.

We are especially in need of male participants. If you have adult loved ones who are male and might be interested, we would be grateful if you shared this information with them.

On the Ritter annex hall some roofing or construction contractors are flying what I’m 99% sure is the three percent far right flag. Is there somewhere to report something like this? I understand freedom of speech but this is a flag that is used by extremist hate groups and should absolutely not represent any contracted affiliates of temple university

Quick question! I’m trying to plan when to come back to campus. How long are the Weeks of Welcome for freshmen? Is it one week or two?

Hello! I took Socio-Cultural Foundations of Education (EDUC 2903) with David Bromley in Spring of 2019 and I am looking for a copy of the syllabus as I apply for grad school. I know it’s a long shot but does anyone have this syllabus? The class is not listed on Canvas and Bromley doesn’t teach at Temple anymore so I’m not sure who to reach out to. TIA

I legit only need 20 suitable points left for the 2025-2026 year, I slacked off this year whoops. One thing I hate is, when I do the self report they take a LONG time to review it. I only did one task which is exactly 20 points back in May and ugh, they have yet to give me my points, do any of y'all know an activity that will give you points asap idk I am not trying fret about it but aye.

edit: the library ones are a scam, I did like 2 of them and never showed me a QR code at the end only a certificate of completion rip.

Does anyone know when single game tickets will go on sale?

Hey yall, pretty much the title, i just got this email saying I need a lot of documents done like HIPAA, FERPA etc.... is this required? I haven't gotten this email before when i first came to temple as a freshmen and now I am second year.

All of these things are due 7/01 like..... ???

I’m from a very strict family and the maximum I’ve been out of my parents house was for 2 days for a trip. I got good grades last semester so my parents agreed to me living on campus hahahahahaha IM SO EXCITEDDDDD
