Although the university did not guarantee a job after college, it did give students the basis to find their interests and pursue their career goals. The campus, comprised of approximately 43,000 students, was founded in 1885 as the Arizona Territorial Normal School, which only had 33 students. Its historical background was a very prevalent part of the campus. Once compared to Disneyland, ASU prided itself in academic excellence among its students.
