Ann Weaver Hart

Welcome to the Office of the President

Welcome to Temple University, an institution of profound accomplishment, relevance and promise. Temple epitomizes what it means to be an urban public research university: creating knowledge, improving lives and serving the community.

Our campus lives side-by-side with Philadelphia. Walk along Broad Street and you can’t miss the energy of a major city. But stroll along scenic Liacouras Walk and you can’t miss the ambience of a college campus.

Temple’s advancements in academics, research, faculty recruitment and residential campus life are being noticed nationwide. We are in an exciting period of tremendous transformation. Visit our campuses and see for yourself, and please feel free to contact me with your comments and questions.

Ann Weaver Hart
