My alma mater has once again earned the title of “No. 1 Party School” by The Princeton Review. You’re so jealous, I know. But you UGA grads don’t have much room to talk! Apparently, the Dawgs are in the top 5. (My kind of people!)
I’ll admit I did my fair share of underage drinking as a Mountaineer. I missed one two many of my classes that Andrew and I are still paying for thanks to my college loan. It’s funny what you don’t think about (or care to think about) when you’re living away from home and pretending you’re all cool.
Did I have a blast? Yes. Do I have any regrets? Yes. Would I do it again? Yes. I am who I am today because of all that I experienced, good and bad. I’m proud to say I went to WVU. It was a beautiful and interesting place and alcohol was NEVER hard to swallow – whether you were 18 or not. Some worry that the ranking will leave a bad taste in the mouths of employers, leaving them to wonder if their prospective new employee got any college education or did he/she just spend his/her time past out in a stairwell.
I don’t have to worry about that – it wasn’t the drinking that interfered with my education. It was my brain.
WOOHOO! WVU IS NUMBER ONE! At least we’re known for something…
Yeah, well, UGA would have come in first but we never sobered up enough to take the survey.
YOU ARE SO FUNNY! I was laughing for a good few minutes after reading your comment! What a great line!
