The Princeton Review has released it’s annual ranking of the Best Colleges in America and similarly to last year, Olin has placed very strongly. The one’s I’m most proud of are: #1 in Best Quality of Life, and #2 in Best Campus Food and Dorms Like Palaces. Also, we’re no longer 4th in the category of “Stone-Cold Sober”.

Here are the rankings:
