Temple University: 125 Years of Service to Philadelphia, the Nation, and the World, by noted historian and Temple professor and Ambler campus Dean Dr. James W. Hilty, written with Temple history instructor Matthew Hanson, offers the first full history of Temple University. It presents a rich chronicle from founder Russell Conwell’s vision to democratize, diversify, and broaden the reach of higher education to Temple's present day status as the twenty-eighth largest university and the fifth largest provider of professional education in the United States. The book captures Temple’s long record of service to its North Philadelphia neighbors, its global reach to Rome, Tokyo, and beyond, and its development from a row house campus into a lively 11,000- resident urban village at its main campus—all the while assuring "Access to Excellence."
