  • On Monday, The Princeton Review released its 2014 edition of “The Best 378 Colleges”. Included in the book is the lists of the Top 20 party schools and the Top 20 sober schools.

    The students who are attending the colleges were asked 80 questions about their college experiences, The Princeton Review said. A total of 126,000 students were surveyed. “Our purpose is not to crown one college ‘best’ overall, but to give applicants the resources and campus feedback they need to choose, get into, pay for, and graduate with a job from the college that’s best for them,” Robert Franek, the author of the book and The Princeton Review senior vice president, said.
