College Rankings

Featured Replies

The Princeton Review has released their annual set of lists, good and bad, ranking colleges in every category you can think of. This is more that just ranking schools from 1-300, it has categories such as best/worst party school, most/least politically active, best/worst professors, etc. and is based on student surverys, who are really the ones that know whats going on.

You can find all the lists as http://www.princetonreview.com/college/res...gs/rankings.asp

 

Just in case you were wondering which lists Florida schools were on,

But at least you'rein Hawaii, which out weighs everything else.

 

 

Florida dropped to 18th in Party schools, I'm disapointed.

Colby College is #7 in Best Campus Food. They used to be higher (definitely #2, maybe #1) in this category. Over my first 2 years, there has definitely been a decrease in the food. :thumbdown

 

It didn't appear in any other list, including academics. :plain
