Word on the street

Do you personally consider MSU to be a "party school"? Why or why not?

“I know people from around the state refer to (MSU) that way, but it’s not any more prevalent here than anywhere else,” Luke Rookus, economics sophomore.

Buzzfeed — a pop-culture website — published a graph this week on a list of the top-100 party schools in the nation compiled by Fiesta Frog — a website dedicated to college parties — in February. The graph combines Fiesta Frog’s rankings with Forbes’ list of America’s top colleges, with the 100 party schools also arranged by academic standing.

MSU placed at No. 43 in the Fiesta Frog list, and Buzzfeed’s graph puts MSU in the top half academically, as well. While MSU is seventh in academics among the seven Big Ten schools on the list, it moves to sixth in the Big Ten party-wise.
