Arizona State University Tempe campus is the main campus of Arizona State University, and the largest of the five campuses^[4] that comprise the university. The campus lies in the heart of Tempe, Arizona, about eight miles (13 km) east of downtown Phoenix. The campus is considered urban, and is approximately 642 acres (2.6 km²) in size. The campus is arranged around broad pedestrian malls and, in toto, is considered to be an arboretum.^[5][6] ASU has an extensive public art collection, considered one of the ten best among university public art collections in the United States.^[7] Against the northwest edge of campus is the Mill Avenue district (part of downtown Tempe) which has a college atmosphere that attracts many students to its restaurants and bars. ASU's Tempe Campus is also home to all of the university's athletic facilities.

The Tempe campus is the original campus, and Old Main, the first building constructed on campus in 1894, still stands today. The university used to be named the Arizona Territorial Normal School and was initially used to train public school teachers. In 1925 the college was renamed the Tempe State Teachers College and started offering its first four-year bachelor's degree. After gaining accreditation in 1933, the college started offering graduated programs in 1937. The Tempe campus is also the largest of the four campuses, with 54,866 students enrolled in its programs.^[8] There are many notable landmarks on campus, including Grady Gammage Memorial Auditorium, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Other notable landmarks include Palm Walk, which is lined by 111 palm trees,^[9] Charles Trumbull Hayden Library, Old Main, the University Club Building, and University Bridge.
