TTN Alumni Association
The Temple News Alumni Association has a mission of maintaining a successful network of friends and former staffers of the university newspaper of Temple University, which has existed since 1921. It is led by a steering committee of devoted alumni who have found success in journalism, in addition to a member of the current TTN staff appointed by the Editor-in-chief each year.
We are just beginning this and are very open to all suggestions. Do you have any? Do you want to get involved? Contact us here.

In addition, the TTN Alumni Association is asked to offer any help in hosting TTN’s annual end-of-the-year formal event. Each May, to celebrate another end of production, we will host a formal celebration, with dinner, a speaker and staff awards, including announcing the next editor-in-chief and his staff. Both outgoing and incoming editors will speak and all will review the year. All alumni are welcome to attend.
