Temple University has a fantastic Business Program.Not so brightBusiness - Management and Administration
Temple University has a fantastic Business Program. It just opened up a State of the Art 80 million dollar Business building with technology in each room that can be found in only 1 percent of Campus' across the United States. If you are looking for a good Business Program in a good school that is priced reasonably then Temple is the school for you. Most the dorms are fairly new so they almost all have personal bathrooms and laundry rooms on each floor. There is also a computer lab in each dorm. Temple also has the biggest Tech Center (computer lab) in the United States.

Yes some parts of campus are not safe. But Temple has the largest campus police force in the region so there really is nothing to worry about. Unless you do something really stupid nothing is going to happen to you.

For other Majors, if you are an Art Major, then this school is for you too. They just opened up a Art campus on main campus. It looks greeat and has a great program.

If you are looking to go into science, Temple is not for you. I'm being honest by saying this. The school is more oriented towards Business and Art.

Hi truth be told Temple is a greatBrightBiology
Hi truth be told Temple is a great school if you are a business major. As for science its no ware near temple business. So basically if you want to be a biologist dont come here its a waste....People are also very segregate here for lunch when you go to anderson strip (u will know what that is) whits sit with whites blacks with black Asians with Asians Indians with Indians there are NO MIXTURES. Its sad and about the teachers some are AWESOME but some cant even say the subject they are teaching....to sum it up good school with bad things such as dont step out side of the campus unless you like getting rapped or mugged.

Question
Overall, Temple University is great.Not so brightAccounting
Overall, Temple University is great. I'm an accounting major at the Fox School of Business and can speak higher about the Fox School and the University as a whole. The teachers are great, the resources are even better, and overall academic experience is one I'd recommend.

The campus itself is actually very nice, now outside the campus is another story, but the campus itself it top notch.

Student are generally friendly and very diverse.If you're an in state student, and aren't interested in Penn State, Temple is great, cheap alternative.
