Two years ago, Ohio University was in the "top ten" and Ohio State in the "top twenty," according to the highly accurate Princeton Review survey. (Trying not to snicker)
When I was at Ohio, the "fact" going around was that Athens had/has more bars per capita than any other place in America -- mainly because of the university and the "party school" reputation it has had for years. Of course we believed every word!
I'll bet others have heard that about their schools, too.
Of such stuff are urban legends made.
Being from Columbus, I partied a lot at Ohio State as well as Athens. OSU's party scene was somewhat diluted because a reasonably large percentage of the student body lives in Columbus. Truth is, though, I had a great time at both! There was a lot of social interaction between the two schools with students heading both ways on Route 33 on the weekends.
My girlfriend (now wife) and I did go to a football "Migration" at Oxford once and got really bored that Saturday evening and ended up driving to Columbus to party.
