November 2, 1934
See Original Daily Bulletin From This Date

Temple University, where the student population is about thirty per cent Jewish, is compelling its students to use text books now being imported from Germany. An appeal to Dr. Charles Beury, president of Temple University, brought the response that a number of the deans and the professors are “definitely of the opinion… that we should not become a party to a Nazi-Jewish controversy by refusing to use the text books in question.”
