ORONO (AP) — The University of Maine, which uses the Maine Stein Song as its school song, has cracked the top 20 for party schools for the first time.
The annual ranking by The Princeton Review put West Virginia University on top as the nation’s No. 1 party school.
Down on the list, at No. 19, was the University of Maine, just ahead of the University of Tennessee.
The Princeton Review ranks 62 categories from food to dorms to general happiness.
When it comes to food, Maine’s Bowdoin College has no peers. The college, which starts the year with a lobster bake for students, came in first place for best campus food as well as “quality of life.”
