USC ranked 2nd best college for men

Trojan men, you’ve made the right choice: USC has been ranked the second best college in the nation for men by Guyism.com, behind the University of Florida.

The website assigned the rankings by awarding points to schools in five different categories: academics, location/weather, social scene, sports and school traditions. Research was compiled from several college rankings including the Princeton Review, U.S. News & World Report and Playboy’s annual list of top party schools.

USC scored high across the board, from its nationally renowned professional schools to its popular sports teams, which remain competitive despite NCAA sanctions in football and basketball.

The social aspect of USC was important as well, with both a robust Greek system and the dominant nightlife scene of Los Angeles itself contributing greatly. The rankings also favored Southern California’s beautiful weather and the Song Girls.

Also in the Daily Trojan:

• USC earns top polls among “College Bests”
• USC drops one spot in 2013 college ranking
• College rankings subjective
• Los Angeles ranks seventh in major college cities
• Community college project increases number of transfers to eight schools
