Don't believe anything they tell you on the tour. Also, what you see is ALL you get. The maps make campus look big, but it's small and there's nothing to on campus. Go to fishtown or northern liberties or another part of the city for cool shit. Philly is awesome and there are jobs and good people to meet and work for; just don't depend on temple to make things happen this school will infinitely disappoint. PS honors kid suck! Almost as much as the random idiot temple student. There are good people though! Also be polite to all the people who work here!
As for CSPD (Center for Student Professional Development), they are great. I have gotten internships with two Fortune 500 companies. You definitely have to initiate this yourself though.
Most importantly, the "Fox Advisors" are absolutely horrible. I have had nothing but problems trying to get help figuring out classes to take, switching majors, general inquiries, etc. Even when I did go to figure out my last 4 semesters of classes, my advisor FORGOT to write down Making an appointment online is difficult, and god forbid you need to speak with someone during their busy times. There are literally lines out the door the beginning and end of the semester. Once you get an appointment, also be warned they are not very helpful; they expect you to know exactly what you want and get irritated if you ask a question that can be found on the website. The department seriously needs to add more advisors, it's ridiculous.Overall, I think if you can find your niche in the school you will be ok. I have never gone to another large institution but I would assume they have the same problems.
