For the 18th year in a row, Brigham Young University (BYU) is The Princeton Review's most sober school in the nation.

As they have done so many times before, BYU celebrated the distinction as a testament to their strict student conduct policy. This year, as the school stated on its Twitter account, the current streak is long as its incoming freshmen are old.

As usual, The Princeton Review's "Stone-Cold Sober" schools are full of religious and military institutions. The College of the Ozarks, a tuition-free "Christ-oriented college," moved all the way up to second overall from sixth overall last year.
