Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I do not remember my college alma mater, but I do remember the one from my grammer-high school. Possibly because it was silly and catchy:
Dear Livonia, Dear Livonia
Dear Livonia, bless her name
Whether in defeat or victory,
We are loyal, just the same
And we'll sing to
Dear Livonia
'tis for her we fight for fame!
And we'll shout her praises loud in every land!
Dear Livonia, bless her name!
This just seems so over the top for a country school with less than 100 people per graduating class.

My grade school sports song thingie was sung to the tune of the theme to the Mickey Mouse Club Show:
C-L-I N-T-O-N V-I-L-L-E
Clintonville Clintonville
I don't remember the rest.

Because books.
If NYU or Hunter had a fight song, I never knew them. But they're not exactly big sports schools.
It's snowing. I really wish it wasn't.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
When did alma mater mean school song? Didn't it mean something else yesterday? I'm so CONFUSED!!!!
I think I have a drawing problem. I'm having a really hard problem stopping.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo
I have no idea of my college had an alma mater. But my high school one? I know and can still sing toay:
"O, those good happy school days,
Spent in learning our aim;
Where true pals greet each other,
Guided by dear Notre Dame.
Hours that speed swiftly onward,
Striving for future and fame.
All for honor and glory
Of our dear loved Notre Dame.
Here's to our dear Alma Mater belov'd.
Let us give praise to her name above.
May she continue fore'er the same,
Notre Dame, Notre Dame.
"

I always thought alma mater meant the school you graduated from.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen
I do remember all of my college one, but Calli and smonster have posted most of it here, so I won't fill in the blanks.
I also remember my high school one, which is mostly in English, but has a Latin title: "Ad Jesum Per Mariam," which prompted a memorable lj post between smonster and me back in our Supernatural days entitled, Ad Gaudiam Per PADDYWHACK.

Only thing I ever knew was my hs fight song. Which might not have been official, but it began "Roll on Trojans..." so....yeah.
