Playboy named OU its top party school for 2015.
Good morning. Here's what you need to know for Tuesday, Sept. 15, 2015:
Did you read Playboy.com yesterday? Maybe you should have.
The website Monday named Ohio University its top party school for 2015.
Playboy cites OU’s “year-round antics,” including Halloween, fest season, and Court Street — a “barhopper’s dream” — as deciding factors in placing OU in the top spot.
OU was absent from the list in 2014. The university had been sagging in similar polls lately through the Princeton Review.
The Post has a detailed breakdown of the list here.
