PHILADELPHIA - The question of safety in and around Temple University's campus has been a large one that has loomed over the university, especially within the last two years.
Now, a new appointee hopes to bring safety and order to the campus. Concerns about safety has been at the top of people's minds after gun violence has hit near campus several times within the past year.
Last November, 21-year-old Samuel Collington was shot and killed just blocks away from the university, causing parents of Temple students to question campus security.
