Lol Temple is pretty much the only form of investment in the neighborhood, it brings an extra police force, better security measures, restaurants and jobs. Not to mention a large hospital network and other benefits such as a dental school that routinely provide free and affordable checkups to community residents

When I was a student at temple all the discourse was about how Temple students were hurting the community and destroying the neighborhood. There was even a “defund TU Police” Instagram account that had a big following. I’m seeing a lot less of that sentiment recently. And all I can say is it’s about fucking time
