Playboy Ranks Top U.S. Party Schools

canada.com — Playboy magazine on Friday named the University of Miami as the top party school in the United States based on five criteria that included a nod to brainpower. Playboy ranked the schools on campus life, sports, sex and academics, or "brains," as Playboy put it. Playboy included "bikini" which combined weather, guy-to-girl ratio and cheerleaders.

  • ScientistBlah, on 04/20/2009, -1/+36Why is this on canada.com?
  • Toonamipod, on 04/20/2009, -0/+33Remember when Playboy was a funny, witty, magazine for sophisticated adults, not just Maxim with an attitude?

    Me neither. I'm gonna go read some 1950s reprints.
  • Laminarcissus, on 04/20/2009, -0/+33I CANNOT BELIEVE OBERLIN CONSERVATORY OF MUSIC DID NOT MAKE NUMBER ONE!
  • Greengoo, on 04/20/2009, -8/+28As they have done in previous years, "We have not included Michigan State University, because frankly it's not fair to include professionals with amateurs".
  • IvanB, on 04/20/2009, -1/+19Article is missing representative pictures to verify their claims.
  • verygoodyear, on 04/20/2009, -3/+17Playboy, the obvious choice in discussing the education system.
  • MalaysianMafia, on 04/20/2009, -2/+16Bikini rating screwed us... On Wisconsin!
  • louisut, on 04/20/2009, -5/+17hookem horns!
  • whatthehell9, on 04/20/2009, -2/+12no University of Phoenix?

  • Mudah, on 04/20/2009, -2/+11I hate these stupid ratings. The reason all of those idiots from the East and West coasts come to my school (Wisconsin) is because of this ranking. Stay away *****.
  • zjbird, on 04/20/2009, -1/+10My brother went to UF and is now in UMiami for law. He says putting Miami as #1 is a complete joke. People in Miami don't even know there is a school around, football games don't have 50% attendance, and theirs probably a fraction of the students at Miami as there are at a big time state school.

  • tnerb067, on 04/20/2009, -5/+13Without the "bikini" category, UW would still be #1. I can't wait for Mifflin, On Wisconsin!
  • TheUngod, on 04/20/2009, -3/+10I have a feeling the list is mostly just based on the number of Playboy subscriptions by campus.
  • greco530, on 04/20/2009, -0/+7WVU FTW

  • IHaveCrayons, on 04/20/2009, -4/+10Go LONGHORNS, that's right muaha Austin ROCKS, represent the ATX
  • OftEccentricity, on 04/20/2009, -2/+8UM is ranked OVER UF?

    As a proud resident of South Florida, and having experienced both scenes in their prime, I declare this statement invalid.
  • hawkeyeracer, on 04/20/2009, -0/+6Dugg for Iowa. Playboy knows what's up
  • SwankRock3000, on 04/20/2009, -0/+6Wow, People actually think Playboy (or Playboy's opinion) is at all relevant in 2009?

  • troysteinbauer, on 04/20/2009, -3/+9University Of California, Santa Barbara.
    Buried.
  • bowlesman11, on 04/20/2009, -0/+6I agree. How UCSB students manage to get an education is beyond me.
  • soybeast, on 04/20/2009, -0/+6Wisconsin is on every stinkin' party school list...not that I'm complaining....GO BUCKY!
  • beloitpiper, on 04/20/2009, -0/+6FTA: "You can't say keg party at Arizona State is much better than bar crawl at (University of) Wisconsin," he explained.

    Right, because it isn't. Madison has one of the best bar scenes in the country!
  • beloitpiper, on 04/20/2009, -0/+5You really have to stay for the summer and hang out on the Terrace.
  • Spacejack, on 04/20/2009, -1/+5In the age of the internet, the articles are what Playboy has to offer.

  • taibo, on 04/20/2009, -1/+4San Diego State is not in Mexico, as you might think.
  • Vikaas, on 04/20/2009, -1/+4Just to let anyone know, who did not know: "We have not included [University], because frankly it's not fair to include professionals with amateurs." is said in regards to any school who did not make the list.
  • bigjakyak, on 04/20/2009, -2/+5The one surprise, Rakovic said, could be the No. 6 school University of Wisconsin because the "bikini" ranking favored schools with warm weather climates.
  • itsJALbert, on 04/20/2009, -0/+3UCSB is 12th.

  • morgino, on 04/20/2009, -0/+3Funny how all these people who go to UCSB are butthurt that there college didnt make it on the list. Speaking as a graduate of SDSU trust me, it doesnt help your job prospects if the first thing a potential employer thinks when they see where you graduate is 'party school.' Go ***** rock it every night and have fun, who cares what some magazine has to say about it. Jeezus
  • Favreism, on 04/20/2009, -0/+3Agreed, Wisconsin is where it's at
  • kolinkoolface2, on 04/20/2009, -1/+4go green

    I love this school.
  • JEbel72, on 04/20/2009, -0/+3I'm assuming that's not Miami of Ohio?
  • rhdesigns, on 04/20/2009, -0/+3Its a dry campus, no magazine is going to rate a dry campus as a top party school. (but I went to ASU and Yes, I agree with you.)
  • eliezerlp, on 04/20/2009, -0/+3Yeah WTF... Did that keg in my room this weekend not count for anything?
  • zTomer, on 04/20/2009, -0/+3lol at sdsu
