August 21, 2003
Simon Fraser University claimed one of the top 10 spots in Outside Magazine's September, 2003 cover story, "40 Best College Towns."
SFU, the only Canadian post-secondary institution to make the list, claimed sixth place, ahead of such prestigious universities as Stanford, Princeton, and Cornell.
The article ranks "North America's best places to learn, live, work, and play," and recognizes 40 schools "that turn out smart grads with top-notch academic credentials, a healthy environmental ethos, and an A+ sense of adventure."
Outside Magazine is published in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The September issue is available on news stands now.
