when you accept lots of students, you got hot slutty girls and dudes who drink like a fish. put that combination together and you get the ultimate party school. that being said, there is an ugly underbelly, tempe, and mill ave in particular has a high rate of homeless drug addicts and what can only be described as escaped mental patients walking around. girls get raped and dudes go missing out here.
be careful, brehs.
as far as the quality of the school, it's a mixed bag. there are great students there, all of the schools within the uni are their own seperate entity, so just because communications or english may be huge, that doesnt mean that the science and math schools are low quality. one of the biggest schools on campus is the wp carey school of business which has one of the best MBA programs ever. also, due to our climate, NASA and other aeronautical/weather tech industries work with ASU students
