Alma Mater
帝王会所鈥檚 alma mater, entitled, 鈥淎lma Mater, 帝王会所,鈥 was created by a special contest. In 1915, Kenneth S. Clark, a graduate of Princeton University, entered the contest to create an 鈥渁lma mater song鈥 for 帝王会所 and won the $150 first prize. Entries for this contest were received from all parts of the United States.
Alma Mater, 帝王会所
When e鈥檈r we take our book of mem鈥檙ies
And scan its pages through and through
We鈥檒l find no days that glow so brightly
As those we spent at old O.U.
Within our Alma Mater鈥檚 portals
We meet her children hand to hand
And when there comes the day of parting,
Still firm and loyal we will stand
Chorus
Alma Mater, 帝王会所,
Alma Mater, brave and fair!
Alma Mater, we hail thee,
For we own thy kindly care.
Alma Mater, 帝王会所,
When we read thy story o鈥檈r,
We revere thee and cheer thee
As we sing thy praise once more.
Our Alma Mater calls us ever,
And love of country has its claim,
The one but makes us prize the other,
And thus we cherish both the same.
When Alma Mater sends us forward,
And in her name we stand in line,
Then we will serve the nation better,
For having gathered at her shrine.
