ENDOWMENT

Over recent years, Temple has written one of the most impressive success stories in American higher education, and it has done so with very limited discretionary resources.

Now, as private support for the University increases, each new gift means new possibilities. At some institutions, each endowed professorship is one of many; at Temple one new endowed position can propel an entire department to new prominence. To date, Temple has achieved a remarkable record of progress. As investment from its alumni and friends grows, the University's potential is enormous.

Temple's Potential

Temple is moving forward with clear momentum. Visitors describe a sense of energy across the University, and few institutions can match Temple's recent pace of progress. With sufficient resources, Temple has the potential to solidify its position among the ranks of the nation's most respected urban public universities and to fulfill more successfully than ever its founder's vision of educational opportunity—providing its students with a rare combination of academic quality and a diverse, urban learning environment.

Need, Debt, and Endowment

When Temple is compared with a variety of other public universities, it becomes clear that its student population includes an exceptional number of families demonstrating financial need and that Temple's students are graduating with a relatively large burden of debt. Among the factors that determine Temple's ability to meet students' need and help reduce their debt is the University's endowment.

Currently, Temple's endowment is considerably smaller than those of many other public universities, particularly on a per-student basis.
