Broadcasting live in prime time from the celebration of the opening of Alter Hall, the “brand new, state-of-the-art” home of Temple’s Fox School of Business, CNBC’s Tyler Matheson interviewed Temple President Ann Weaver Hart and Fox Dean M. Moshe Porat. Dean Porat addressed how Fox prepares students for careers during a recession. “We try to prepare them to be their own bosses — to be entrepreneurs — more and more,” he said. President Hart highlighted the importance of Temple’s role in economic hard times. “It’s part of our core mission to provide access to an excellent education for people who are prepared but don’t have $50,000 a year to spend,” she said.

Ribbon Cutting from John DeAngelo on Vimeo.
At the Alter Hall Celebration on Monday, President Ann Weaver Hart and Dean Moshe Porat got a hand lifting BIG Scissors from Coach Fran Dunphy, Dennis Atler, and Board present and past chairs Dan Polett and Dick Fox. The ribbon cutting was preceded by a google maps-like tour of the globe, highlighting Temple campuses around the world and ending at a ribbon-wrapped Alter Hall in Philaldelphia. After a countdown, the ribbon fell away and everyone celebrated by shooting red and white confetti into the atrium air.
