I'm in the FOX Spotlight!

A few words for Temple's Fox School of Business students: get to know and use the Center for Student Professional Development (CSPD). To see why I say this and to read even more advice from others, check out the following page on their website where I was recently featured!

On this page, I describe some of the things that the CSPD did for me in my undergrad career which ultimately led me to my current post-graduate position as a Junior Product Manager:

Your TU Tuition: Printing Quota Changes

According to Computer Services, "All currently-enrolled Temple University students receive a free printing quota." But free always comes with a price.

Did you notice that the cost to print a page in our computer labs is now only 7 cents, instead of 10? However, after we use up our printing quota of 300 pages (funded by the $125 technology fee included in our tuition), the rate jumps back to 10 cents per page. That's the fine print.

So now it's more important than ever to print double sided and watch how much you print, especially as midterms approach. And when printing PowerPoint presentations or class notes, print multiple slides per page, or multiple pages per sheet if your eyes can stand it.

It seems that this is Temple's way of balancing the budget.

Your TU Tuition: Paley's Media Center

This post is for Temple University students and people who like libraries.

This Tuesday, the main campus library at Temple University is holding a Media Center Open House. It will be held all day (9 am to 5 pm) on the ground floor, showcasing their VHS and DVD collection while providing tours, snacks and giveaways.

The library is one of the most important aspects of a University, and I'm glad to see any efforts to improve ours. It's always refreshing to check out their resources for leisure as well. Temple's libraries' holdings include 3 million volumes, 6 million photographs, more than 30,000 print and online subscriptions, 35,000 linear feet of manuscripts, and a rich collection of sound and video recordings.

That's a lot to discover, whether for class or personal use... wouldn't you rather catch up on Mad Men season 1 and 2 on DVD than research for that industry report, anyway?

Find out what the Media Center has to offer! Visit the Media Center this Tuesday September 29 and learn about one of Paley Library's newest, most exciting additions.
