AUBURN, Ala. — A ranking compiled by the Princeton Review has named Auburn University students as some of the most conservative in the nation.

Auburn came in at #7 nationally.

“Auburn University is a traditional Southern school full of Southern hospitality that provides a surprisingly ‘family-like atmosphere’ for a school of 25,000 and an unsurprising level of school spirit. ‘Auburn people are proud to be Auburn people,’” a student told the Princeton Review.

This isn’t the first time Auburn has been on the list, they were actually ranked #1 in this metric in 2013. While the slide to #7 might be a little bit surprising, they were actually supplanted by another SEC school—Texas A&M.

Here are the top 10:
1. Texas A&M
2. Thomas Aquinas College
3. Grove City College
4. College of the Ozarks
5. University of Dallas
6. United States Merchant Marine Academy
7. Auburn University
8. Hampden-Sydney College
9. Brigham Young University (UT)
10. Hillsdale College
