I worked at Temple for about a year in the mid-aughts before it was built up with the dorms. Every staff and faculty member vacated the campus as soon as their job was done! You did not hang around there a minute longer than necessary especially after dark.

I honestly am not surprised and feel for the Temple students. For the most part they are just trying to get an education at a school that is not that expensive. Penn is probably the safest campus in the city and that's due to their Penn police force which is quite visible.

Most depressing years of my life living off campus at temple. No socializing, because as soon as class was out I'd need to get home because walking in my neighborhood two blocks off campus and living there alone was the plot to a murder podcast waiting to happen
