I am shocked that Washington and Lee made the "party school" list. I can't remember being on it in years past, though we have always been high on the Greek list and the beer list. Yes, W&L kids do go out a lot, but I don't think we belong in the same category with the rest of the colleges that made the top 10. W&L is a tiny 1st tier liberal arts college, smaller than many high schools. I wouldn't call W&L a party school because it's quite selective and the academics are very rigorous. The whole WORK HARD/play hard thing, and they're not kidding about the work hard part.
I bet the administration is pissed... hehe

hrm...
I thought in the edition of the Princeton review I had, W&L wasn't listed because sports popularity figured into the party school calculation. They must have changed their calculations.
That said, I'm not really that surprised that W&L was that highly ranked. Even if people do work their butts off, most of them drink like fishes, too. There's this whole complex of us WANTING to be high on the lists for drinking--I think probably the people who drink the most take this survey hehe.
I bet the website will list the good rankings and not the bad.
Crazy pissed administration is right.
