Fight for K.S.U.
Bring vict鈥檙y home,
For gold and blue.
We鈥檒l show to all our foes we鈥檙e out to win;
With might and main we鈥檒l raise a triumph din,
Thru thick and thin.
Honor team and school
We鈥檒l meet our foes with courage cool,
Then join the welkin, let your voices ring,
And to our Alma Mater sing.

Arr. Hugh Glauser
The blue of the morning, the gold of the noon day sky.
Declare Kent State鈥檚 glory her colors that proudly wave on high.
Her faith in our future, in our powers, in our daily strife.
Oh! Kent we promise to love thee forever,
Kent Alma Mater the joy of our college days.
Oh, Kent Alma Mater we love and will praise thee always.
鈥淗ail to Thee, Our Alma Mater鈥
Words by E. Turner Stump
Music by Dwight Steeere
From the beauty land Ohio comes a universal praise,
'Tis the song of Alma Mater that her sons and daughters raise.
'Tis a Hail to Kent forever, on the Cuyahoga shore,
Now we join the loving thousands as they sing it o'er and o'er.
Hail to Thee, our Alma Mater.
O, how beautiful Thou art,
High enthroned upon the hilltop,
Reigning over every heart.
鈥淔ight On For K.S.U.鈥
