Temple Owls are preparing to fly away from campus, headed toward various spring break destinations. In just a few days, campus will be shutting down and many students say they are ready for some time off.
“Light at the end of the tunnel, sense of relief that we’re almost there,” said freshman Melanie Snier.
Students like Katlyn Buchy are ready to be relieved of the pressure from classes and exams, and take a break from those long study sessions at the TECH Center.
“I’m gonna fly out to San Francisco on Sunday to see my family,” said freshman Kilian Laverty.
While some Owls are going as far as the west coast to visit family, others are staying on the east coast to head to cities like Miami for HBCU week and Virginia Beach for cheerleading competitions.
According to USA today, airlines are expecting record high numbers of spring break travelers from March to April. TSA is bracing for this travel surge, especially in Orlando, Fort Myers, and Fort Lauderdale airports.
Some of our Temple Owls will be staying here in Philadelphia to spend time with family, get school work done, and even work so they can have extra money to use throughout the semester.
Whether these students are working or jetting off to a city with warmer weather, they are all excited to get away from classes, books, and exams. Spring break will give these Owls some time to regroup and prepare for a strong finish for the rest of the semester.
