AUSTIN, Texas (AP) -- The Texas Longhorns earned another national title Monday, not for football but as the country's best party school.

The University of Texas at Austin beat Penn State University, West Virginia University and last year's winner, the University of Wisconsin-Madison, in the Princeton Review survey of 115,000 students at campuses around the country.

It topped the overall list - its first time atop the Princeton Review chart - by ranking second in the use of hard liquor, third in beer drinking and 13th in marijuana smoking.

If my memory serves me correctly, BYU finished last for the second year in a row.

Actually BYU finished first - on the Stone Cold Sober list.

This is one area where BYU is proud to finish last.

I see two CCLA "B" teams made the top 10 for sobriety - Grove City at #4 and Calvin College at #10 - congratulations - I think!
Something must happen to those Calvin boys after they graduate - I have several friends who I wouldn't clasify as Stone Cold Sober (or even warmly sober)!

#15 is St. Olaf. It is a dry campus on paper. I think by my junior year I was ignoring the alcohol policy.
