成人杂志《花花公子》上周五(4月17日)公布其选出的年度十大派对大学,迈阿密大学荣登榜首。该杂志将校园生活、运动、性、学术以及由天气、男女比例和啦啦队三项内容综合反映的“比基尼”指数列为评选派对大学的五个标准。《花花公子》20年前首次评选派对大学,过去只偶尔刊出排行榜,不过现在已经成为每年一度的特色排行了。十大派对大学的完整排行依次为:迈阿密大学、德州大学(奥斯汀校区)、圣地亚哥州立大学、佛罗里达大学、亚利桑那大学、威斯康辛大学(麦迪逊校区)、乔治亚大学、路易斯安那州立大学、爱荷华大学、西弗吉尼亚大学。

 

Playboy magazine on Friday named the University of Miami as the top party school in the United States based on five criteria1 that included a nod to brainpower.

The adult magazine, which has only occasionally published the party college list in the past but will now turn it into an annual feature, ranked the schools on campus life, sports, sex and academics, or "brains," as Playboy put it.

As a last criteria, Playboy included "bikini" which combined weather, guy-to-girl ratio and cheerleaders.

But absent from the credentials2 were college bars and parties that exist on the fringe of campus life.

"In order to make the list, you had to be a school where fun happens, so we threw that out and went to other criteria," said Playboy Assistant Editor Rocky Rakovic.

Rakovic also said it was hard to quantify just exactly what made a good bar scene from campus to campus, because each location had its specific attributes.

"You can't say keg party at Arizona State is much better than bar crawl at (University of) Wisconsin," he explained.

On the subject of brainpower, Rakovic said that criteria was important because, after all, "you are in college for a reason, to get an education."

Judging the intelligence of U.S. university students turned into a rather scientific equation, too, using things like grade point averages, freshman3 retention4 and Princeton academic reviews, then giving them a numerical weight and averaging results.

The one surprise, Rakovic said, could be the No. 6 school University of Wisconsin because the "bikini" ranking favored schools with warm weather climates.

Playboy began ranking party colleges 20 years ago. The full list is in the magazine's May issue and on the Internet at www.playboy.com/partyschools09.

The top 10 party schools are below in order of rank:

1) University of Miami

2) University of Texas (Austin)

3) San Diego State University

4) University of Florida

5) University of Arizona

6) University of Wisconsin (Madison)

8) Louisiana State University

9) University of Iowa

10) West Virginia University
