Playboy Ranks Michigan As A Top Ten Party School

When you think of a party school, the University of Michigan doesn't usually jump to the top-of-mind.

If I were to associate anything with Michigan, it would be kids studying and wearing corduroy pants.

I guess I have no idea what I am talking about because when it comes to Playboy's rankings of the top 10 party schools in America for 2015, the University of Michigan came in at No. 10 on the list.

According to Playboy.com:

Oh, "the Michigan difference." The haughty catchphrase works because it's true: Wolverines study hard and party harder. At "the Pit," a shared backyard between frat houses and an epicenter for Saturday-morning tailgating, students get advanced degrees in Wolverine superiority, still going strong almost 20 years after its last football championship. House parties abound in Ann Arbor; if one gets shut down, students roll the kegs to the party down the street. Win or lose, Michiganders still booze.

The top 10 list is as follows:

1. Ohio University
2. University of Iowa
3. Florida State University
4. Tulane University
5. University of Illinois
6. University of Texas
7. Syracuse University
8. University of Wisconsin
9. University of Mississippi
10. University of Michigan
