Michael Crow

Crow has spent 17 years reinventing “party school” ASU as a higher-ed innovator, adding satellite campuses, online degrees, and partnerships to educate Starbucks employees and Uber drivers. Enrollment, at 98,000, is nearly twice that of 2002, and the student body is far more economically and racially diverse. Expansion hasn’t hurt learning: 52% of students graduate in four years, up from 28% in 2002.
