UW - Madison! You haven't seen a party until you've seen downtown Madison/State St. on Halloween. :)

A lot of students got very upset last year when we lost our "official" number one ranking...

I've driven around U albany a few times at night, seemed deader than my campus. I don't think there's such a thing as a party school in the albany area.

Of course Capn, what Dean in their right mind would allow drinking to roam freely on campus? ;)

Downtown is where it's at.

[edit] Of course since I'm underage, I'm just assuming anyway.

>BA, we've actually dropped to that spot in recent years. KU used to be Top 5

Yes, how sad...Not old enough to have been around, but I remember seeing some interesting stuff on TV back in '88

At least we've still got better looking girls than all those other schools, 'cept maybe MSU

Downtown Albany? You've got to be kidding me, city clears out like the plague is coming through at night. Unless you're talking about Lark st. which is where I've seen a little action, but I wouldn't consider that the whole downtown area.

York University in Toronto
Carleton University in Ottawa
Queens University in Kingston

The biggest Party Schools in Ontario, I gather.

SUNY Albany is the #1 party school?! Its a mediocre school, academically, but I guess they sure know how to party...hardy? ;)

My original quote was:

<< I know my school, SUNY Albany was #1 by Princeton Review or something a couple of years back >>



Right here as originally posted by thedarkwolf

That was 2 years ago back when I was a frosh.

I would say Chico State.

UCSB and Isla Vista was about to be my choice also, but after they started cracking down on Halloween, it hasn't been the same.

Cal Poly San Luis Obispo's rep was shot after Poly Royal of 1990 w/the frats and sors starting up the rioting and all.

Going to UW-River Falls i know it is Madison. What ever the polls say is meaning less untill you have sat in the student section at a badger game. Then the real fun gets going. If we win we drink, a lot, to celibrate. When we lose we drink even more so we forget it till next week when we win. Better load up on supplies without Daine. j/k
