Philadelphia school wants to keep tuition costs affordable

From The Philadelphia Inquirer: Temple University in Philadelphia will kick off a $100 million fund-raising campaign in the fall specifically targeted at financial aid, as it continues a concerted effort to roll back the cost of education. Temple alumnus Bill Cosby has filmed several videos the university will use to urge its 275,000 alumni and others to donate and help students attend school at an affordable cost. It's the largest campaign specifically for financial aid ever undertaken by the 39,000-student university.
