You don’t have to be in New York to enjoy great performances. Grady Gammage Memorial Auditorium, considered by many to be the crowning jewel of ASU’s Tempe campus, is one of Frank Lloyd Wright’s last designs. Wright designed the building to be as acoustically perfect as possible. This means that every seat is a great seat for the many PROGRESSIVE® Broadway Across America - Arizona series performances. Gammage is also the location for many university traditions and special graduation celebrations at the close of each semester. Constructed in 1964, the building is named for Dr. Grady Gammage, the legendary ASU president who led Arizona State College’s victorious campaign in the state legislature for a name change to Arizona State University in 1958. ASU Gammage Box Office is open 10 a.m.–6 p.m. M–F.

When the MU first opened its doors in 1956, the facility offered 109,000 square feet accommodating the nearly 6,000 enrolled students. A plaque near the north entrance doorway lists the major donors who contributed to the initial construction. ASU chose the name "Memorial Union" to serve as a living memorial for those who have courageously served our country in the military services. In remembrance of the building's first director, Cecelia Scoular, the study lounge located on the main level was named in her honor. Since its opening, the MU has undergone a number of renovation projects as well as several additions to the original structure. Today the building totals about 254,000 square feet which serves a growing student body averaging 60,000. The MU serves as the central meeting and conference center for registered student organizations, campus departments and at various times of the year, organizations and business from the larger community. Reservations for meeting rooms in the MU are made through Event and Meeting Services located on the main level behind the Information Desk. In addition, mall/lawn space reservations and the ASU Catering sales office are located within the Event and Meeting Services office.

Where Education Collides with Social Life. Where Dreams of getting a 100 on a final to pass a class with a C attempt to become reality. Where students practice chemistry to see what mixture of "legal" stimulants will give them the advantage of 24 hours of studying. Where friendships are made at 3am while taking a smoke break. Where love at first sight flourishes. Where life time connections and friendships are made. Where nerds get to spend time with attractive people. Where "show and tell" means more then bringing a picture and explaining the story behind it. Most importantly its where legends are made!! The Charles Trumbull Hayden Library serves as the main library on the ASU Tempe campus. Located on Cady Mall, it houses books and other research materials in the humanities and social sciences, including business and education. The library also houses many special collections. Built in 1966, Hayden Library is named for Charles Trumbull Hayden, founder of Tempe and first president of the board of the Arizona Territorial Normal School. The five story building was designed by the architectural firm of Weaver and Dover in the "Pavilion" style and featured a dry moat, which was intended as a sculture garden and quiet reading area. In 1989, in what was to have been the first of a two-phase expansion, the library added two floors below Hayden Lawn and moved the main entrance of the library as part of this expansion. The design of the expansion included a grand stairway leading below grade to a large open-air gardened courtyard. Inside, the entry features a large seal of Arizona inlaid in the floor. Above the seal, on the Hayden Lawn sits the "beacon of knowledge," which is illuminated at night by the interior lights of the library below.
