The line of applicants started early and spanned several blocks at Temple’s Main Campus. Candidates were hopeful they would find a job with one of the 60 employers participating in Temple's seventh annual Neighborhood Job Fair. “Philadelphia has a high unemployment rate, so obviously by the numbers you see that people are looking for work. These are people that have credentials. Many of them are degreed, and so they're looking. We're providing this as a community service,” said Michael Robinson, director of community outreach at Temple Human Resources.

The Securities and Exchange Commissions recently decided to allow publicly traded companies to make material corporate announcements on social media. Temple Fox School of Business accounting Professor Steven Balsam said the SEC is also ensuring information is shared fairly and transparently by "requiring companies to disclose that they are going to be disseminating information via social media so people know to look for it or become followers, subscribers, etc."

Shaniece Cole is going places. Last week, she graduated from Temple's School of Media and Communication with honors. She’d spent the semester interning at MTV and will be moving to Los Angeles to begin a new job at VH1. Along the way, Cole stopped in Las Vegas to present at the Billboard Music Awards, selected from thousands who applied for the spot. "They wanted to know why we were passionate about the entertainment industry," Cole says. "They told me my application stood out the most."

In addition to a page 1 photo and local news story on Temple’s Commencement, the Inquirer printed a photo of Bill Cosby entering the Liacouras Center as its "Photo of the Day.” Both the Inquirer and philly.com websites posted a photo gallery featuring scenes from the ceremony, including students’ stylish shoes, a Temple tradition. The Daily News ran a photo from the gallery in its print edition.
