I attained my undergraduate degree and my law degree at Temple University in Philadelphia, and take pride in having done so.
In giving an alumnus’s perspective at various Temple University recruitment events, I have proudly related to prospective students and their parents examples of Temple University’s often “behind the scenes” connection to diverse events and institutions, including but not limited to the Philadelphia Zoo, the United States Congress, the National Bureau of Investigation of India, and the Department of Accounting & Information Systems at Queens College CUNY (where I taught Business Law courses and Taxation courses for more than twenty years).

History often pulled up a chair at Jane Marshall Goodsill’s dining room table. As a girl, she would sit and listen as her father, prominent attorney Marshall Goodsill, and mother, Ruth, chatted with the myriad guests they welcomed within their Vladimir Ossipoff-designed walls.
