Welcome Alumni!

Temple University Ambler has an active, diverse community
of alumni and friends. As a member of that community, we encourage you to take part in Ambler events, to keep us informed of where you are, what you are doing, and how we can best serve your interests.

Our Mission

The mission of the Office of Development and Alumni
Affairs is to create an always-open bridge between the campus and our alumni and friends.

Over 1,500 of our alums are graduates from the School of Environmental Design [formerly Ambler College] (the home of horticulture, landscape architecture, and planning degree programs).

More than 12,000 campus alums are graduates from other Temple degree programs who have taken 50% or more of their courses at the Ambler campus.

Whether you are an SED or Ambler Campus alum, this is
your online resource for news, alumni updates, and campus events.

 

Coming up at Ambler

Albright Walk Dedication

Friday, September 23, Noon, Bright Hall Lounge (PLEASE NOTE LOCATION CHANGE DUE TO EXPECTED INCLEMENT WEATHER)

Phil and Barbara Albright have been dedicated supporters of the Ambler Campus and Ambler Arboretum for decades. It is only appropriate that their dedication to the campus be remembered for decades to come. On Friday, September 23, the Ambler Campus student walkway, located near the Ambler Greenhouse, will be officially dedicated as the “Albright Walk” to honor the many years of service the Albrights have given to the campus and its gardens. Phil Albright, a graduate of Temple’s Landscape Design program in 1986, and his wife Barbara donated the Ericaceous Collection in 1995, which is now part of the Native Plant Garden. Phil Albright is a founding member of the President’s Advisory Council, former Chairman of the Ambler/SED Board of Visitors, and currently serves as the Chair of the Ambler Arboretum Advisory Committee. The Albrights are community leaders and philanthropists who inspire others by example. On September 23, Ambler Campus Executive Director William Parshall, School of Environmental Design Dean Teresa Soufas, and Ambler Arboretum of Temple University Director Jenny Rose Carey will honor the many facets of the Albrights’ support to the campus. An informal reception will follow. Information: Linda Lowe at llowe@temple.edu. About the Albright Walk Dedication.
