About Arizona State University:
ASU exemplifies a new prototype for the American public research university. As articulated in the ASU Charter, ASU is a comprehensive public research university, measured not by whom it excludes, but by whom it includes and how they succeed; advancing research and discovery of public value; and assuming fundamental responsibility for the economic, social, cultural and overall health of the communities it serves.
ASU is dedicated to the proposition that excellence and access are not mutually exclusive. ASU ranks sixth in the U.S. for research expenditures among universities without a medical school. Simultaneously, ASU is one of the nation’s largest public universities, enrolling nearly 150,000 students from various socioeconomic, geographic, and demographic backgrounds, across campus and digital immersion programs. ASU has demonstrated that quality higher education can (and should) be made available to every student capable of performing university-level work while increasing, not sacrificing, excellence.

The department takes as its purview not just historical positioned work, whether linguistic or textual, but includes all forms of expression and all modes of new media, whether analogical or digital.
