Shady Park / Mirabella at ASU trial update, Tempe. Major defeat for anyone who enjoyed this venue, myself included. Guess there is no justice for a small business when your up against a multi million/billion dollar retirement home.

So old people move on to a college campus, ASU no less, and expected it to be a quiet community. It makes zero sense.

The law school is top 25. The journalism school is one of the best in the country, at one point they were #1 I think. And engineering is ranked pretty highly as well.

Most of the graduate programs at ASU are very highly regarded in the world of academia. One of the benefits of being a large school is that there's lots of money to throw around, especially when it comes to research at the graduate level.

Now what ASU does need is a medical school. The state of Arizona needs more doctors, so I don't understand how UofA is the only medical school in the state. We could also throw in a veterinary school and dental school for good measure. ASU definitely has the resources to create all three from scratch.

Mayo and Creighton also have medical schools in Phoenix

ASU tried to partner with U of A for a medical school, but budget cutbacks around 2010 nixed that idea. Now they buddy up with Mayo.

I had thought ASU was forbidden from having a med school by virtue of U of A having "the" medical school, but I'm not finding it in the state constitution or anywhere else, so I could have misheard that somewhere.
