Bearcats Fight Song

Fight, Bearcats, fight;
A vic-tory for W.U.
The cardi-nal and gold
Victor-ious of old
Shall give us a spir-it ev-er new.
Fight, fight, fight!
Card'-nal cour-age show,
And gold is our faith so true
We shout our war cry to you
Come on and fight, fight, fight
Fight, Fight, Fight

Ode to Willamette

Alma Mater

There's an old historic temple
Rising grandly through the years
Where to oaken hearted father
Drew their strength for strong careers;
Down the years, its portals open,
Gathered wise ones to its fold.
Breathed the spirit of the Westland
Cardinal emblem 'bossed with gold.

Dear old School! How strong we love thee!
'Round the memories how we cling!
Glad some hearts beneath the shadow,
Loyal hears to thee we bring.
Old Willamette how we cherish
All thy legends and thy lore,
Born up on the calm Pacific,
Guides us onward evermore.

Spirit of the Golden Westland
Breathing through our fathers' tears'
Tells the story of the Temple,
Bids us hope adown the years.
Sing, oh sing of old Willamette,
Sing while hearts are young and true;
Sea to sea the chorus swelling,
Dear old school, our W.U.
