The building has had protected historic land- mark status since its placement on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993. Cardboard protects the lobby’s marble floors, and ornate brass fixtures remain in good condi- tion despite the building’s years of neglect. Cassidy/Turley Commercial Real Estate Services Executive Vice President Don Arones said he is optimistic that the building can find a good buyer, despite challenges with marketing it. He said he reached out to ASU when the Downtown campus first began development to see if the University would be interested in the space. However, the building was ultimately not in- cluded in the campus’s design plans. University Planning Senior Vice President Rich- ard Stanley said there was interest in the build- ing in the past, but problems arose when trying to make use of the building for classrooms.

  • Arizona State University
    Arizona State University From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaNot to be confused with University of Arizona. Arizona State University (commonly referred to as ASU or Arizona State) is a public flagship metropolitan research university[8] located on five campuses across the Phoenix, Arizona, metropolitan area,[9][10] and four regional learning centers throughout Arizona. The 2016 university ratings by U.S. News & World Report rank ASU No. 1 among the Most Innovative Schools in America.[11] ASU is the largest public university by enrollment in the U.S.[12] It has approximately 82,060 students enrolled in the year 2014 including 66,309 undergraduate and 15,751 graduate students.[13] ASU's charter, approved by the board of regents in 2014, is based on the "New American University" model created by ASU President Crow. It defines ASU as "a comprehensive public research university, measured not by whom it excludes, but rather by whom it includes and how they succeed; advancing research and discovery of public value; and assuming fundamental responsibility for the economic, social, cultural and overall health of the communities it serves." ASU is classified as a research university with very high research activity (RU/VH) by the Carnegie Classification of Institutions of Higher Education. Since 2005 ASU has been ranked among the top research universities, public and private, in the U.S. based on research output, innovation, development, research expenditures, number of awarded patents and awarded research grant proposals. The Center for Measuring University Performance currently ranks ASU 31st among top U.S. public research universities.[14] ASU was classified as a Research I institute in 1994, making it one of the newest major research universities (public or private) in the nation.[15][16][17] Students compete in 25 varsity sports.[18][19][20] The Arizona State Sun Devils are members of the Pac-12 Conference and have won 23 NCAA championships.

However, in the case of the experience of women at colleges and universities in the early twentieth century, this thought is not applicable. Women on college campuses experienced the regulation of every experience, from the classes they took to the activities they participated in. This thesis examines this event at the University of Arizona, Arizona State University, and Northern Arizona University from 1900-1960. The argument is made that due to Arizona’s perception of progressivism in its political and social policies in the early twentieth century, a contradiction develops due to the restrictions that undergraduate women faced in their college experience. While Arizona politicians were eager to apply progressive policies towards legislation and labor rights, they were not as eager to apply them to women’s rights. This thesis finds that the experience of women at the Arizona public universities from 1900-1960 was one of regulation and restriction that was in line with the national attitudes towards women’s rights and academic, athletic, and political abilities.
