<p>Notre Dame, Stanford, BC, Cal, and UCLA are by no means “party schools.” Heck, ND doesn’t even have fraternities or sororties. And have you heard of the Indiana State Excise Police? They are a special police task force with the mission of cracking down on drinking. They arrested 61 ND students at a party a few days ago for underage drinking, public intoxication, disorderly conduct, etc… ND doesn’t have a party friendly atmosphere.</p>
<p>I suggest UGA, UF (actually, any SEC school for that matter), Texas, any Big 10 school (except Northwestern), UCSB, ASU, and Arizona. Even though those schools aren’t in the Northeast, they are top party schools. Most of those schools attract the good students that know how to have a good time.</p>
<p>If you really like the Northeast-type weather, then the University of Wisconsin would be a great fit. They have great academics (I believe it’s a top 10 public university) in addition to great football, basketball, and hockey programs. Madison is one of the top college towns in the country and Wisconsin has more bars per capita than any other state in the country.</p>
