Princeton Review ranks UW top party school
It took a decade, but the Wisconsin Badgers are back on top. For partying that is. 
The Princeton Review recently released it’s survey of best party schools and the University of Wisconsin-Madison was No. 1, followed by West Virginia University and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Illinois took the top spot last year.
Not everyone is celebrating like the UW student body.
“Our big thing is you don’t have to always drink,” Christie Davis from the La Crosse County Health Dept. said. “We can have community celebrations. We can have fun events that take place that don’t … need to be the focal point for why we get together for celebrations.”
UW also placed first in the “lots of beer” category and fifth in “lots of hard liquor.” Luckily, the Badgers were also first in “health services” in the Review’s 2017 edition of The Best of 381 Colleges.
Davis says drinking behaviors in college shouldn’t be overlooked, especially when you begin making excuses like, “So and so doesn’t have a drinking problem. They just like to go out on weekends. They like to have a good time,” Davis said.
“Binge drinking on a regular basis is not a normal thing, is not a healthy thing,” she continued.
School administration has largely ignored the ranking.
