Temple University has a memorandum of understanding with the Philadelphia Police Department regarding the specific jurisdictional boundaries as well roles and responsibilities. This is customary practice for universities operating in Philadelphia. Temple continues to speak about these agreements and boundaries so that parents and students are aware. We encourage students to live within the current patrol zone boundaries.
