Princeton Review recently released its annual evaluation of schools that party the most and least, and our very own Wheaton College has ranked near the top of the "stone-cold sober schools" list.
The Princeton Review's list of abstemious academies ranked Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah at the very top and Wheaton College as a close second.
This is (at least) the third year running that Wheaton College has earned a special place on the lists compiled in 2011 and 2012.
Local schools on the other end of the spectrum included University of Illinois at Urbana-Champagne, which ranked No. 3 on the list of party schools, alongside other top-five fiesta colleges including (in order) University of Iowa, University of California - Santa Barbara, West Virginia University and Syracuse University.
The party/sober school lists are published as part of the 2014 edition of the Princeton Review's annual "The Best 378 Colleges" book. The rankings are based on the results of student surveys tackling a range of subjects spanning the last three school years.
