<p>However, as I previously stated, and I think we’re saying the same thing. If you want to go to a party, UIUC is no better or worse than any other school except maybe Wheaton College.</p>
<p>Would you say Northwestern isn’t a “Party” School? Since Radiums likes links, here you go:</p>

<p>Stanford?</p>

<p>Harvard even?</p>

<p>My point, again, is that to perpetuate the myth that somehow UIUC is a “Party” school is wrong, but, as with any other school, you can get any number of people to say “Yep. Big Party School…party on Garth!”. On college confidential, to say that is very misleading. These are kids looking at UIUCs justified academic reputation, and trying to figure out where to go for college. To say it’s a party school to someone who doesn’t know any better, and might turn one or two away from considering it for their college education, is quite an irresponsible thing to do.</p>
