Temple University was founded in 1884 by Russell Conwell, who lived from 1843 to 1925. He was a Baptist minister, orator, philanthropist, lawyer, and writer. In 1882, Conwell came to Philadelphia, where, in addition to leading the Grace Baptist Church, he tutored members of the working class at night. The classes were taught in the basement of of Conwell's Baptist Temple. Temple University's name originates from this, and its mascot, the Owl, originates from the fact that Conwell's students were called 'night owls.' Philadelphia granted a charter in 1888 to "The Temple College of Philadelphia" but the institution was not incorporated as a university until 1907. Conwell is buried at Temple University's Founder's Garden.In addition, Russell Conwell delivered a sermon in 1878 called Acres of Diamonds. He would give this sermon over 6,000 times.
