Would you send your kid to one of these schools?

Time has an article by Megan McCluskey about a list of 'party schools':

The University of Wisconsin at Madison has taken first place in the Princeton Review’s annual ranking of the best party schools in America, climbing two spots from its position on last year’s list to earn the title. The college admissions company revealed the ranking as one of 62 categories in the 2017 edition of its The Best 381 Colleges.
UWMadison scooted into number one in front of West Virginia University and the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, last year’s winner. It also earned top honors for Best Health Services and Lots of Beer, and a fourth place finish in the LGBTQ-friendly campus category.

The top ten list, based on a hundred and fifty thousand students’ ratings of their campus experiences:
University of Wisconsin at Madison
West Virginia University
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
Lehigh University
Bucknell University
University of Iowa
University of Mississippi
Syracuse University
Tulane University
Colgate University
