Worst Rankings and Student Rants About Them

Parking at Brown University

D-

Practically Nonexistant

There is essentially no parking. First and second year students can't even have cars, and most upper class students don't because even if you can get a place to park near your dorm/apartment, there's nowhere to park near class.

Sports... Brown Has Athletics?

No one really pays much attention to sports at Brown, as it is with most ivy league universities. There's always the occasional basketball or football game that many people will attend out of the year, but overall sports are not of much significance expect to athletes.

Drinking Very Popular

Alcohol is the most popular drug by far. There are more on campus who use it than don't, and the attitude toward underage drinking is relaxed.

Marijuana has its place on campus as well although it does not have near the influence of alcohol. It's more a private thing.
