I'm surprised that this list differs so much from the Playboy list.
I know some people who go to IU and said that the party scene is not that intense, and they were really surprised with this ranking.
Their analysis of the Wisconsin party scene is pretty dead on, but I think that the alcohol culture here is much different than it is at many other schools. Alcohol is just integrated into almost every activity here (my boyfriend's roommate even like to bust open the vodka bottle to sip out of while he wrote papers!); it's not "just a party thing." Basically, there are a lot of people here who drink a lot of alcohol all the time and that's pretty much seen as the campus norm.
Plus there's not a lot else to do up here once it gets cold!
