Welcome to the Memorial Union!
The Memorial Union, affectionately referred to as the “MU” is considered the living room of the campus, welcomes you as a member of the ASU community. ASU chose the name "Memorial Union" to serve as a living memorial for those who have courageously served our country in the military services.
Our goal is to provide you with the best possible experience - whether joining a student organization, participating in a day of community service, planning an event or enjoying a meal!
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. Today, the building totals about 254,000 square feet and serves a growing student body averaging 75,000.
