Temple University President Neil Theobald will take questions this afternoon at a students-only discussion of a proposed on-campus football stadium.

The meeting, sponsored by Temple Student Government, is scheduled for 4 p.m. at the Howard Gittis Student Center. Protests, which have greeted most public gatherings on the topic, are expected at this event — though organizers said signs will not be allowed.

Questions were being submitted online through last week; students will be able to fill out notecards with new questions during the discussion.

Athletic Director Pat Kraft will be there to answer questions; Temple Student Body President Ryan Rinaldi will moderate.
