Warning: If you’re a college student and you’ve recently sent a drunk text, your message could end up on the internet. But don’t put away your phones just yet — the text could actually go toward giving your university a boost in “party school” cred, The Huffington Post reports. Party School Texts, a new website founded by four students from the University of Florida and one from Santa Fe College, is using funny texts sent while partying in order to grade schools on a scale from “LAME-O” to “Rock Star.” Modeling itself after the popular website Texts from Last Night, the creators are hoping to not only entertain, but also provide a better way to rank schools’ hierarchy in the “party” scale.
