Though the school name was changed to Arizona State Teachers College in
1928, it was 10 years before the letter "A" was installed on the hill. In
1952, a bomb blast destroyed by unknown students (State Press, 9/19/52)
that letter. The present "A" on the butte was built in 1955 using reinforced
steel and poured concrete. It measures sixty feet in height. |
