Congratulations to all of Temple University's new 2026 30 Under 30 Awardees and for the Gallery of Success recipients for their outstanding accomplishments and for driving real impact in their chosen career fields! These alumni are pushing boundaries, empowering entire communities and blazing trails for the next generation of leaders and inspiring other students toward their future. 

A special shout-out goes to Temple University Rome alum John E. Dowell Jr. (BFA ‘63) as the Gallery of Success 2026 recipient for the Tyler School of Art and Architecture, and alumni in the 30 Under 30 Awardees list: our change igniter Keyana Pusey ’18, and our Sports Industry Standout Raul Vegas’19! 

In the words of Keyana (Temple Rome Spring 2017 semester student): "Studying abroad was truly a transformative experience, and one I encourage anyone to take advantage of if given the opportunity. My time in Rome broadened my perspective of the world, pushed me outside of my comfort zone, and reinforced my belief that I can go anywhere and achieve anything I put my mind to."
