Our “Philadelphias”<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

It is fitting that Temple University is located in \u201cthe new Philadelphia\u201d and shares a name with the \u201cPhiladelphia of the past,\u201d Amman, Jordan. However, our two cities share more than a name. Our \u201cPhiladelphias\u201d offer a wealth of historical and cultural sites that enhance understanding of cultural values, continuously provide support and services to our immigrant and refugee communities, and provide a unique backdrop for all who live, work and study.<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
