I think our school is best known for our Band. Some people might say its a party school, and yes people do party, but our band is well known. Our school marching 110 is very good.

Carla

Ohio University is best known for their reputation of being a party school. While that is true, many colleges can also be considered a party school. It is just a matter of balancing your school work and your social life.

Donald

Although I'm not proud of it, Ohio University is mostly known for their crazy parties, especially during Halloween.

Benjamin

My school is best known for being a "party" school. But, truthfully if you aren't into that knid of thing there is so much more offered at Ohio University. I am not a big "party"er and there is so much for me to do. Between school work and spending time with friends I am always occupied. This school should be best known for having something for everyone.

Gerald

Ohio University is mainly known for its business school and communications school. They are both ranked in the top schools in the country. OU is also known for being a big party school but it doesnt over ride the production of the students and their academics.

Suzanne

It?s partying, but really, I think there is a lot more to the OU campus than the binge drinking of some. It?s a place where you can strike up conversations with complete strangers in coffee shops and make life long friends, where your views can be challenged and expanded by the wealth of diversity despite the fact it is a small school, and for the beautiful scenery that surrounds you.

Kayla

Ohio University is known for outstanding education for its students. It is also known for that small town feeling. Some people think of it as a "party school", however I personally don't agree with that. It is a fun place to be but is also a safe place to be. You have to be adult enough to make good choices when you are attending a college. There are plenty of activities to do that are both safe and fun.

Christina

Ohio University is best known for being a huge party school, but in fact that is only true on Halloween weekend. I think OU should be known for its liberal and laid-back atmosphere. Most people are openminded and there is a huge LGBT community here. There were thousands of Obama posters during the election.

Brian

Ohio University is a well known party school that still balances acedemics. The social life flourishes especially on the weekends.
