In defense of my friends at #5 who wore the Orange with pride. There is nothing else to do in Syracuse...PERIOD!
University of Florida #6
I’m disappointed, we can do better.
Just curious to see the sober school!

Ahhh, good times. I just wish I could remember them all.
Princeton? What the hell? How is it credible that a university is rating all the other universities? Isn’t this a little like Miss Utah scoring the rest of the pageant entrants?
This is just the East Coast elite attempting to undermine the value of degrees from non-Ivy League schools.
For example, UC Santa Barbara. It’s on the beach. It’s beautiful. So are the students. So what? That makes it a “party” school? It’s also really hard to get into. Top robotics and engineering programs. Awarded a half dozen Nobel Prizes in the last ten years. Can you say that, Princeton? Not lately.
And yet you grindy little Princeton nerds undoubtedly “party” just as hard. You’re just in hellhole New Jersey, not California, and nobody wants to look at you guys in bathing suits. Jealous much?
Signed,
UC Santa Barbara Alum
P.S. “Party” is neither an adjective nor a verb, so your storied literature department, which once long ago launched F. Scott Fitzgerald, might want to rethink that usage. Or are you just dumbing it down for us rubes?
The big homecoming weekend when they play Hobbes College is supposed to be pretty wild, though ...
Interesting that the other service academies made the sober schools list but the Air Force Academy didn’t...
Fighter pilots.
submitted for your consideration: a sober school is just a party school in disguise...
;-)
Why isn’t UVa on the list??
Marking.
Glad to see my alma mater is still as full of drunks as it when I was there.
No Miami U, I had the best month there one weekend.
Go Hawks!
So the Big Ten racks up 4 of the top 10. Might explain why we can’t count to twelve.
