Painting the A has been a first year Sun Devil tradition since early in ASU's history! The event, Echo From the Buttes, is a tradition where students march up the Hayden Butte and paint the ASU "A" white to signify a fresh start to the school year. Swipe to see a photo from 1960 of ASU students painting the gold A white on "A" Mountain. A very different time period, but still the same, fun tradition! 🔱 Click the link in our bio (@arizonastateuniversity) to read more about all of the events that we are preparing for Welcome Week! 😈 eoss.asu.edu/welcome/events #ASU #ArizonaStateUniversity #SunDevils #SunDevilLife #GoDevils #ForksUp #ASUHistory #ASUtraditions
