What makes San Diego State University special?

I'm all into the San Diego vibe, and SDSU seems like a cool place. Before I get too excited, could someone share some fun facts that really capture the spirit of San Diego State University? Like what are the little-known things that make SDSU students proud?

Absolutely, SDSU has a warm spirit that's hard to miss. For starters, it's the oldest and largest higher education institution in San Diego county. Students there have a unique opportunity with the 'Aztec Shops,' which are student-run businesses right on campus providing amazing hands-on experience in retail, dining services, and even provides jobs for about 1,500 students each year.

Also, SDSU's International Business Program is ranked among the top 15 in the nation. You'll often hear about the historical Hepner Hall; it's the iconic building that really reflects the Spanish Renaissance architecture across campus—you've probably seen it in many SDSU photos. And if you’re sports-oriented, the Viejas Arena at SDSU is a buzzing spot, not just for Aztec basketball games, but also for massive concerts and events. It's these kind of facets that foster a real sense of pride among Aztecs!
