Annual review rates University's
residence halls as second-worst
A housing official cites the
age of residence halls as the
primary reason for Princeton
Review’s critical ranking
By A. Sho Ikeda
Senior News Reporter
The University has a reputation of
being very politically active, promi
nent in marijuana culture, populated
by hippies and offering "dungeon
like" resident halls, according to The
Princeton Review's annual survey.
Every year the New York City
based company — known for its
test-preparation courses, books and
education services — conducts an
annual survey of students at hun
dreds of colleges. This year, The
Princeton Review surveyed 106,000
students at 351 colleges and pub
lished results in 63 different cate
gories ranging from best professors
to best campus food.
Hie University made appearances
in four categories: No. 2 in "Dorms
Like Dungeons," No. 13 in "Reefer
Madness," No. 16 in "Most Political
ly Active," and No. 16 in "Birken
stock-Wearing, Tree-Hugging, Clove
Smoking Vegetarians."
University Housing Director Mike
Eyster said the age of die University's
residence halls probably had much
do with the its high ranking on the
"Dorms Like Dungeons" list.
"1 think the ranking is a reflection
of the fact that our buildings are out
of date for today's students," Eyster
said. "We can't control how old the
buildings are and the state that they're
in without major renovation."
Eyster said the first step toward
improving the residence halls' rep
utation is to create new housing.
He pointed out the University's
plan to build a new residence hall,
the Living Learning Center, which
would accommodate 400 first
year students.
"This is the first step the University
should take to improve its housing,"
Eyster said.
Though the Department of Public
Safety could not provide statistics on
marijuana violations on campus
and in residence halls, the DPS Web
site listed general drug violation
numbers from 1999 to 2001. Drug
offenses on campus grew from 24
arrests in 1999 to 95 in 2001. Ac
cording to the Web site, 78 drug-re
lated arrests took place in on-cam
pus residential facilities in 2001.
DPS could not provide statistics on
drug violations for 2002 or 2003.
After the Worker Rights Consor
tium protests in spring 2000, Univer
sity students stepped into the politi
cal activism spotlight; Mother Jones
Magazine ranked the University first
on its list of the Top 10 Activist Cam
puses in America. This year, Univer
sity students continued to earn the
reputation of being politically active
as The Princeton Review ranked the
University No. 16 in the "Most Polit
ically Active" categoiy.
Survival Center co-Coordinator
Pira Kelly said she doubted the sur
vey's accuracy in representing the ac
tivism in colleges across the country,
but added that activism at any school
is important.
"There are a lot of people here
who are inspired and want to im
prove the world," Kelly said. She
said the campus anti-war group, Stu
dents for Peace, had a large member
ship and that animal rights, environ
mental, anti-racism and other
movements also have a strong pres
ence at the University.
Other significant rankings in this
year's survey include Yale University
boasting the best academics overall
and University of Colorado at Boul
der being the top party school. The
school with the happiest students is
Chicago's DePaul University.
