Princeton Review: Top 20 U.S. College Party Schools

The Princeton Review has once again ranked the Top 20 College Party Schools. When I was at MTSU they were at the top of this list back in the 90’s. I then happened to be at LSU when they topped the Princeton list right after the turn of the century. The survey was conducted amongst 120,000 college students.
