are party schools still good for students wha are just going to get an education ad have a little fu?

Just because it is labeled a party school does not mean the focus isn't on education. I attended Arizona State the year it was voted #1 party school and still got an exceptional education.

College is what you make it. Don't base the decision on your social life. Focus on the caliber of the school and how good their program is for your intended major.
