Nearby University Ranks Near Top of ‘Bro Colleges’ List

Being a bro is a way of life. If you or someone you know considers themselves a bro, this nearby college might be where they need to enroll.

I've never really understood bro culture. As a man, that makes me feel bad. Like I'm letting my other guys down by not completely buying in to what makes a bro a bro.

What is a bro? According to The Wall Street Journal, "They are mostly male students from the East Coast who join fraternities, gravitate to majors in finance and can tell you exactly how many beers they “crushed” last night."

Ah yes, now I know why I'm not a bro. I'm not from the East Coast, I wasn't in a frat, I didn't major in finance and I never counted how many beers I drank.

I learned early in my 20s, "drinkers don't count and counters don't drink."

That being said, The Wall Street Journal put together a most 'bro-tastic' list of bro colleges in the country.

To my surprise, University of Wisconsin in Madison made the top 5. UW scored pretty low on the "Greek Life" scale but scored the highest with "party rank" and "campus score."

Altogether, Wisconsin scored a 63. Three points shy of the leader Virginia University, trailing Notre Dame, Syracuse, and Duke respectively.

Who finished last? Gonzaga. Considering they along with Wisconsin are now out of the NCAA basketball tournament, both schools can share a beer together.
