Welcome to Wall Street at Broad & Cecil. The student-run Owl Fund is now a real money-management operation. In September, students in Temple's William C. Dunkelberg Owl Fund began investing approximately $120,000 in donations received expressly for learning about finance. "It is truly a student-run investment fund, with the students preparing and presenting three investment recommendations per semester, along with ongoing responsibilities to update and re-evaluate their selected stocks as new information becomes available," said Cynthia Axelrod, an Owl Fund faculty director at the Fox School of Business.
