Temple University is taking steps to make sure it gets more attention. It has an ambitious building program in the works that includes a new library, a redesigned campus and a new 1,200-bed dormitory tower.
It is trying to build its football program into a nationally known brand and there are even plans to build a new on-campus football stadium.
It also is investing a lot more money in marketing the school to add some sizzle to Temple’s name.
