The Venue at a Glance

If you’re local to the Philadelphia area, we’re sure you’ve heard of Temple University (or at least we hope so), but you may be a little less familiar with Alter Hall, the new and gorgeous home of the Fox School of Business and Management on the main campus in North Philadelphia. Opened in 2009, the building pretty much defines “state of the art” in every way possible, and we’re incredibly thrilled and privileged to have WordCamp Philly there! The fact that many organizations at Temple are using WordPress in really awesome ways is an added bonus.

So, before you venture to Temple’s campus this coming Saturday for the first Philadelphia WordCamp, feel free to check out the building that you’ll call home for the day. We recommend the slideshow and virtual tour for starters. As a fun fact, the building boasts the nation’s longest elliptical stock ticker, according to the Temple News (who uses WordPress!).

We’re confident that you’ll enjoy Alter Hall as WordCamp Philly’s venue, and we’d like to continually thank the Fox MIS Department and the Institute for Business and Information Technology for making our presence there possible.
