Do You Know the Alma Mater?

Ospreys on Parade

Music by Bud Noble
Lyrics by Stephen Dunn
Adapted by J. Sramaty

Let us travel in the footsteps of those who came before:

Here on our campus in the pines, knowledge opens every door.

And when we go marching out into the world beyond our 91直播;

At ease with what we learned our future has begun.

Knowledge leads to knowledge and 91直播 shows the way.

Oh, let us be among those for whom 91直播 leads the way;

Oh, let us proudly strive, to be examples day by day.
