Temple University’s new president plans to decentralize the budget and make college more affordable for students after years of success at Indiana University. Temple is committed to “keeping student debt as manageable as possible, by containing costs, creating incentives for students to graduate in four years and teaching basic financial literacy to our students,” said Neil D. Theobald in a Q&A.

Is there good evidence that any supplements actually work for people with heart disease? Nothing beats the natural way to fight heart disease - living better, said Sara Sirna, director of Temple University Hospital's lipid clinic. Sirna suggested that people get a good night's sleep, eat healthy, maintain a healthy weight, exercise and refrain from smoking. "We clearly know that people who do that have a much lower risk of heart disease than people who don't do that," she said.

Love that picture your child drew for you? Before you say, "you're such a good artist," consider this new research on praise from Temple psychology professor Elizabeth Gunderson. She studied how praise was doled out to toddlers. "When you praise kids by saying something like 'good job' or 'you worked hard,' you praise the process, that tends to lead to more beneficial outcomes than praising the person, by saying something like 'you're smart' or 'you're good at that.'"

One of the big technical Oscar awards went to a Philadelphia native and Temple University graduate, for his editing of the film Argo. On the Hollywood A-list for film editors, William Goldenberg’s name comes up quite often. “I think I came to editing late in the game,” Goldenberg said. “I sort of got the feeling that I was going to be good at it when I was in college and went to film school.” Goldenberg was nominated for Oscars twice before, for his work on Seabiscuit in 2003 and The Insider in 1999.
