    TEMPLE TOWN: GENTRIFICATION IN NORTH PHILADELPHIA Zach Holzberg History 2001: The Historian’s Craft April 30, 2021 1 Temple University is located right in the heart of North Philadelphia. It’s a well-established public university that has a history spanning back over a century with deep roots in the community. Due to Temple’s integration with the city of Philadelphia, the history of both are very intertwined, and one point of constant intersection is gentrification. In an article about gentrification from The Encyclopedia of Greater Philadelphia, Dylan Gottlieb defines gentrification as a phenomenon of “a process where affluent individuals settled in lower-income areas.”1 While gentrification does bring in higher-income residents and enables the broadening of the tax base, it comes at the expense of “social disruption and the displacement of existing residents.”2 Due to the population of Philadelphia being majority black, this change was not a welcome one for a large portion of Philadelphia residents. The gentrification of the area surrounding Temple University, which I’ll be referring to as “Temple Town,” has been the subject of scrutiny over the past 70 years and has greatly impacted race relations in the neighborhood. The process of gentrification can be traced back to the 1950s, in a rapidly suburbanizing, post-World War II America. After the suburbs became the home of a wealthy, primarily white populace, “the stage had been set for gentrification in Greater Philadelphia,” with Center City being reimagined as “an attractive residential zone.”3 The mindset of revitalization taken wasn’t limited to Center City, though.

  • Food and Housing Insecurity Among Philadelphia College Students a #Realcollegephl Report
    Food and Housing Insecurity Among Philadelphia College Students A #RealCollegePHL Report Sara Goldrick-Rab, David Koppisch, Paula Umaña, Vanessa Coca, and Marissa Meyers April 2020 FOR COLLEGE, 1 COMMUNITY, AND JUSTICE Executive Summary Securing the basic needs of Philadelphia undergraduates is crucial to the city’s efforts to boost college attainment, promote economic well-being, and improve community health. Adequate food and housing are fundamental to learning and influence graduation rates, as well as the ability to repay debt. This report examines the results of the 2019 #RealCollege survey for five Philadelphia colleges and universities. Its release is part of the Hope Center’s #RealCollegePHL initiative, a new Lenfest Foundation-funded effort to build higher education’s capacity via community collaborations to ensure that every student pursuing a college degree has enough to eat and a safe place to sleep. More than 5,600 students from the Community College of Philadelphia, Drexel University, La Salle University, Orleans Technical College, and Temple University responded to the survey. More than half of respondents at the two-year institutions and around one-third of respondents at universities evidenced food and/or housing insecurity. The rates of basic needs insecurity at Philadelphia two- year colleges mirror or exceed national estimates. Moreover, undergraduates who are non-white, female, identify as LGBTQ, and/or have experienced foster care, served in the military service or been incarcerated generally have higher rates of

  • And Old) News About Cheating for Distance Educators
    The New (and Old) News about Cheating for Distance Educators Scott L. Howell Brigham Young University [email protected] Don Sorensen Caveon Test Security [email protected] Holly Rose Tippets Brigham Young University [email protected] Abstract Those in distance education are faced with a formidable challenge to ensure the identity of test takers and integrity of exam results, especially since students are physically removed from the classroom and distributed across the globe. This news digest will provide distance educators not only with a better understanding and awareness of issues surrounding cheating but also suggest solutions that might be adopted to help mitigate cheating in their programs. While technologies, including “braindump” Web sites and cell phones, are associated with the more common cheating behaviors today, the problem of cheating will always beleaguer distance educators; it is their responsibility to stay current on latest developments in the field of academic dishonesty, employ fitting interventions to mitigate cheating, and do everything possible to preserve the integrity of distance education. Introduction While many distance educators know they need to protect the integrity of their programs and prevent cheating whenever possible, few, if any, want to spend the necessary time or resources required to prevent and detect cheating. Confronting cheaters and spending resources on deterrents, detection, and discipline is not why distance educators go to work each day. However, this responsibility to stay current on old and new ways of cheating is receiving more attention at professional conferences as accreditation and legislative bodies codify expectations for distance education. For the past 10 years regional accrediting bodies have required programs to “ensure the integrity of student work,” (Accreditation Handbook, 2003, p.
