This Week in Temple History
March 2, 1966
The Temple University News reported that University students unexpectedly found themselves eating in temporary dining areas in College Hall and in the basement of Conwell Hall when the Broad Street luncheonettes were demolished. A new dining area was planned to be included in the Student Activities Center, but the building wasn’t set to be constructed for another year. Without many other options, students petitioned for the permission of lunch trucks to be placed on the streets around campus.
