After years of placing in
After years of placing in the top ten on most best-college-town rankings, A2 must be a little surprised not to see itself on the Princeton Review’s list of the top twenty schools in “Great College Towns” that came out this week (via Goodspeed.) But it shouldn’t be so unexpected - the Review’s rankings, unlike many others, are actually based on a poll of college students. And we’ve never disputed that Ann Arbor is a great college town in which to grow up, raise kids, retire or run your own slumlord empire. Making the top five were schools in New York, Washington, Chicago and Miami.
The U of M was, however, tenth in the category of “Lots of Hard Liquor.” Let’s not lose sight of the things that really matter.
