76ers CEO visits Fox School after receiving Twitter invitation from student

Philadelphia Inquirer

Adam Aron, new CEO and co-owner of the Philadelphia 76ers visited Temple's Fox School of Business. Normally visits by senior executives "take a year to a year and half" to coordinate, said Gregory DeShields, Fox's managing director of business development. But Aron's Fox session — which was attended by about 150 Temple students and faculty members — came together relatively quickly after a student sent Aron an invitation via Twitter. Aron said that the 76ers will be hosting "Temple Night" at the Wells Fargo Center on Tuesday.
