The Princeton Review released its annual ranking of colleges for 2007, which includes individual lists for such things as parties, professors, and what we care about here, campus food (requires registration), which falls under a larger category called "Quality of Life." Bowdoin College in Maine tops out at the Number One spot - I wonder if they get lobster rolls? Here's the Top 20:

Bowdoin College
Virginia Tech
Wheaton College (IL)
Cornell University
Saint Olaf College
Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering
James Madison University
Colby College
Gustavus Adolphus College
Washington University in St. Louis
Scripps College
Middlebury College
Bryn Mawr College
Miami University
Dartmouth College
University of Notre Dame
Tufts University
College of the Atlantic
Claremont McKenna College
Bates College

No UCLA?!!! I always thought we had excellent food both on and off campus.

That's PR's East Coast, private university bias for you.

I'm actually a sophmore at Bowdoin college, and I can testify that the food is amazing. I really think that having great food available actually makes a huge difference in students mental and physical well-being.

http://BowdoinGourmet.com is a food blog I created this year to showcase the offerings at Bowdoin. Its just getting started and certainly does not yet convey the depth and bredth of the food available at Bowdoin, but it will give you a glimpse into the "best college food in the country".

You UCLA kids think too highly of your school. Stop resorting to your state vs. private nonsense. We just own your over-populated ghetto.
