Walking Philadelphia Temple University College Campus SHOT IN 8K | A College in the HOOD!
As a student, I highly recommend Temple, that being said, the campus is getting more dangerous with people getting robbed inline at frats (not kidding, I got the TUalert for it). Its a great school academically, socially, and if your looking for that real college experience. And if you're a skater, there is a very active and chill skate community as documented in the video, however it goes way beyond just the core skaters you see there. Just be careful and stay away from broad street at night if you go.
I graduated from Temple in May of 2022. Lived right off broad and master actually. Don’t go here! Your chances of being a victim of a violent crime in Philly are about 1/9 people so good luck
@@isaiah5654 First off, congratulations! And I absolutely agree. Since the time I posted that comment, so much worse stuff has happened at Temple like an off-campus house having a Molotov thrown in through a window where students were sleeping, and there is no sign of the violence stopping.
Bruh broad street at night in temple is safer than the hood roads

What abut fees affordability and scholarship opportunities
I graduated from Temple in 1991. I thought it would be interesting to see how the campus has changed.
Thanks for taking some time to check it out. Hope you have a blessed day 🙌
thank you for all your tours.
I graduated Temple (Tyler School of Arts) in 2007. The whole campus changed everything dramatically! Thank you for bringing back memories!
this helped alleviate the anxiety I had about navigating the campus. Thank you! Also, the memory of you eating the meatball sandwich on the bench warmed my heart. Keep doin what you are doing bro, preciate you! :)
Great video! I went to Temple 1975-79. So much is still there but so much has changed.
Thanks for sharing your story. I appreciate it 🙏
You're right about the regional rail, it can take you up into Montgomery and bucks county! Keep on keeping on Toonz
Thanks man I appreciate you chiming in ✨️🤟
Damn, I actually went to class today too, I woulda popped outta class and said whats up! Keep it up bruv, love the content.
Hope you had a good class. Study hard and enjoy your time in school buddy! Before you know it...you graduate 🎓 blessings 🙌
Toon, thank you for video! I graduated from Temple University in 1981 and was commissioned in the U.S. Army. The campus looks completely different, now!!!
Thank you for stopping by to check out the video. I sincerely appreciate it. Have a wonderful day
Excellent tour. Been way too many years since I have been on campus. Looks 100 times better.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts 🙏
Hi 😊 Toon another lovely stroll 🐕 TY such a nice campus ❤️
Thanks for dropping a comment 🤟✨️😎
I went to school here and also worked security here for a number of years. The tour only shows a fraction of the campus. The older buildings in the video at the start on the left used to be mansions for Philadelphia's wealthy back in the 1800s. There used to be an entire row. Several that we saw in the video now makeup the Freedom Theater.
I still make it down to campus several times a year for events. The new Charles Library is really fantastic and I plan on visiting. The large building where he used to get his meatball sandwiches is Alter Hall which is the home of the school of business. So of the landmark buildings the he missed included the SAC Student Center, the Liacouras Center, Mitten Hall and others.
One good thing about attending and working at TU is that I did spot a few celebs visiting such as Cosby, Michael B. Jordan, Michelle Obama and yes I saw Lebron practicing bball down there one day.
There is also good food to be had and lots of parties for the younger folks.
As I mentioned I did also work security there. I used to tell people to always use common sense when in the big city. Philadelphia is currently going thru one of the worse crime periods that I can remember. We see Wawa and Starbucks closing stores in Center City, violence on the tourist oriented South Street and even at the July 4th fireworks. And yes, Chicago, NYC, Baltimore, Cleveland, Atlanta and elsewhere are all grappling with high levels of crime. But my concern is Phila since I live here.
Yes you're right this is only a small portion I have documented this area several times from many points of entry I appreciate you sharing your story thank you very much and have a blessed day Cheers🙏🙌

Thanks for leaving a comment. I replied to your other comment you left yesterday. 🙏💓
same thing happened in new york ,many factories are now expensive apartments.
Yes I was surprised where Temple was located. And it's north of Girard seems like more Girard South is more gentrification going on

Thanks for leaving a comment
Agree.
What is the employability rate of this university
Temple looks great. I went there as a student 35 years ago now
Thanks for sharing your story. Appreciate you stopping by
There was once a school in Phila called Catto named after octavius v. catto. Located at 42nd and Ludlow. It's almost impossible to find any history on it now. Octavius v. Catto had a lot of history in Phila. and for them to drop his name all together is a disgrace for Phila.
Thanks for showing love and dropping knowledge 🤜🤛✨️
I understand Catto is now Charter School.
@@theresaharrison7416 I think it is in Camden not Phila. I went to the one in Phila. It's the furthest you could get from being a charter school but Thanks for the response.
Don't know why but I have a hard time getting on to chats
Dang that sucks ..are you able to get on anyone else's live chats. If not maybe the youfube app on your device needs to be updated. Chrck the app store. If not. Thags strange. You can always shoot me a email 🙏 have a great day Scott !
Very convenient for trains, subways and busses!
Temple looks great compared to when i was in grad school there in early 90's. Lots of gentrification. I loved the old food trucks too, the most delicious coffee. You can get a great education at Temple for a reasonable cost, but sadly safety is a major concern. While you mentioned the random shootings, muggings, robberies and car jackings, you failed to mention the MURDERS. For this reason I would not send my son or daughter to Temple until the City of Philadelphia cleans up its act.
Thanks for sharing your story ✨️🙏
Thanks
Thank you very much for supporting this channel. Much love ❤️
I went to Temple from 1965 to 1969. It really looks different. I wonder how the Paley library is being used... I worked there.
Thanks for leaving a comment and sharing your story. I documented the temple campus a few times and covered different blocks in other videos. Explore my channel sometime 🙏
@@TOON215 Thank you, I will! I looked it up. The Paley library (in front of the bell tower) was closed, and the odd shaped Charles library is new.
Right now it's shut down and under renovation. Not sure what they're going to turn it into though. It's a shame since it's a prime location being next to to the bell tower.
Paley Hall will be a classroom building. It's undergoing renovations.
@@13bcoffee Thank you!
Looked like a different world Toon
Yes sir. A stark contrast 💯
So different from when I was there in 2004
Didn't know they renamed Anderson Hall
Thanks for taking a second to drop a comment ✨️🤟
Hello very nice ! 👍
Thanks for the feedback
A collage set literally surrounded by projects 😂 that was a dumb idea
Haha 😄 thanks for stopping by to share your thoughts. I appreciate it 💯
You should go to Fordham, Yale, USC, etc. SAME EXACT situation. And those are all prestigious schools. Thousands of students have attended and graduated and not had any issues lol. And majority of the "projects" around Temple are literal STUDENT housing. It's basically a college town area
TO modernized of a building for philly.
yoooooooo i see myself skating
Haha awesome!
Every year Temple University draws straws and sacrifices three students to the surrounding hood. This ensures good enrollment the next year.
Haha 😄 😂😂😂
Got that right. Good school in the hood.
Dude chill with the clip bait. It might be a rough commute to it if your coming from further north but anyone from philly knows that now a days temple is not in the hood.
Whats click bait? The cover art says what the video is.Philadelphia Temple University Campus.
Click bait is putting a picture of a unicorn on the coverart but the you look at the video and there's np unicorn in it haha
@@TOON215 Bruh the title can also be clickbait since you're baiting clicks with "HOOD" in all caps 💀
I've explained this plenty of times. But just because i put hood ...it doesn't always need to correlate with negatively. The human mind makes what it wants of the word. What do you get when you remove the word neighbor. From the word neighborhood. You get left with hood. Little red riding hood wore a hoody....she wasnt a hoodlum 😂So over 900+ tours ago when I began documenting my home city I named my segment "Philadelphia Hoods" my original Playlist had 235 silent tours. Not only was it a uniform name for my segment. It was less text in the coverart and in the title of a youtube video your only allowed 100 characters. So why waste characters writing the word neighborhood in ever video to complete the word neighborhood. When you can just write hood and use the spade for more descriptive adjectives
Regulars who have been watching my channel for years know this.viewers who just found my channel yesterday don't understand that part.
Appreciate you sharing your thoughts. 🙏
And it's a college actually located in the hood. That again is not click bait 😂😂😂 now if it was in a ritzy million dollar neighborhood different story . That's North Philly
@@TOON215 dude don't play yourself you knew what you we're doing with HOOD in all caps.
I'm not gonna lie, I wouldn't feel safe if I went to a college that's in the hood
campus looks great tho, might be worth getting aired out to go here
So many PRESTIGIOUS/well-respected colleges are in, or close to the hood. Berkeley, USC, Yale, Fordham, George Washington, etc.
Hello 👋 Toon
👋 hello
@@TOON215 I'm a huge fan I appreciate your work I was on live I said hello u didn't respond i guess u have so many followers that u can't speak to everyone personally smile 😊 keep up the good work .
Violence is normal on this campus great school bad area wow risking lives to further Education temple needs a orientation class survival of the hood 101 Philly is the poorest major city in America remember that.🙏 14 and 15 year olds committing homicides and then going home playing video games
Thank you for taking a second to leave a comment. 🤜🤛💓
Ignorant. Nothing happens on campus, it's the surrounding areas where things occur. Why? Because there is no Philly police presence in the areas surrounding the university. Temple needs to make the city do it's part. FYI, I graduated from Temple in 1999.
@@dawudabdullaah6977 I'm sorry it is very much happening on campus. 1300(a dorm) was shot this semester and broken into. Last semester there was a man running through campus flashing people and grabbing girls. There was a shooting in front of white(another dorm) early this semester. It happens on campus too now. The Philly police and tu police patrol off campus and on campus together.
@@dawudabdullaah6977 things happen on campus daily they keep it low so people don't know how bad it is I'm in that area 4 times a week I know, me and my Glock
Many more prestigious colleges in WORSE areas like Yale and USC. And the students are fine
Men in Black building 😂
