The rankings are out. And, no, I’m not talking about the U.S. News and World Report law school rankings due out this week that were leaked this past weekend.
Nope. I’m talking about Playboy’s rankings for the top party schools of 2009 (link NSFW).
Playboy has named the University of Miami its top party school for 2009, with the school garnering the top “bikini index score” and beating out schools like the University of Texas-Austin and San Diego State University for the top spot. According to Playboy, the study took a scientific approach (link NSFW) to the ten best by “developing algorithms to equally weigh all of the things that are crucial to the college experience.”
Playboy took measure of the Bikini index, campus life, sports, brains and sex. It’s not my cuppa tea, but if you want to go to a school that’s known for its parties, here’s the list with all 25 schools. (NSFW)
And here’s the top 10. If the university has a law school, I’ve given you a link to the law school web site:
- University of Miami – School of Law web site
- University of Texas (Austin) – School of Law web site
- San Diego State University
- University of Florida – Levin College of Law
- University of Arizona – Rogers College of Law
- University of Wisconsin (Madison) – Law school
- University of Georgia – School of Law
- Louisiana State University – School of Law
- University of Iowa – College of Law
- West Virginia University
