St. Olaf ranks in the top 10 of the Princeton Review for...food

According to a survey by The Princeton Review of more than 110,000 students at 357 top colleges, St. Olaf College ranks ninth in the nation for Best Food. Intrigued by this fun fact, WCCO 4 television, Minnesota's CBS affiliate, sent news reporter Darcy Pohland to Stav Hall to sample offerings by the college's food service, Bon Appetit, and to talk to students who are more than satisfied with the college cuisine.

The Princeton Review is a New York City-based company known for its test prep courses, education services and books. It has conducted the survey since 1992. "All of the schools in this book are academically outstanding," says Princeton Review's Robert Franek, the book's lead author. "We report ranking lists in many categories to help college applicants and their parents decide which of these very different, but all great colleges is best for them."
