The alma mater makes the most sense.


Lots of schools do it. But what percent of alumni actually could recite the words to ours? I'm guessing less than five percent. It might be older among the Old Guard crowd. I also recall there was an attempt to get this going in the late 00s, but few people in the stands stuck around and our players mainly swayed in front of the band.

Texas A&M we ain't.

Verse:
Sing praise to Alma Mater dear,
For V.P.I. we'll ever cheer;
Come lift your voices, swell the song,
Our loyalties to her belong.

Chorus:
So stand and sing, all hail to thee.
VT, all hail to thee.

Verse:
The Orange and Maroon you see,
That’s fighting on to victory;
Our strife will not be long this day,
For glory lies within this fray.

Verse:
All loyal sons and daughters, one,
We raise our banner to the sun;
Our motto brings a spirit true,
That we may ever serve you.
