The Best, Easiest, and Most Fun
When it comes to college, the one that has the best overall experience for undergraduates is Yale University, followed by Princeton, Duke, Amherst, and MIT.

That's the word from the Princeton Review, which has just published its 2004 edition of "The Best 351Colleges" in which it ranks schools in 70 somewhat unusual categories. What makes the Princeton Review unique--and controversial--is that it relies on the survey results of just over 100,000 college students. No administrators. No professors. No parents. Only student opinions are solicited.

Following are the No. 1 rankings in selected categories:
