@kdt David Reese and others used to sing Oberlin to the tune of O Tannenbaum (think OberlinO, BerlinOber, LinOberlin, OberlinO, etc.) but I don't think that counts as a fight song in any sense of the term.

@carrie HA! The Yeomen do not, to my recollection, have an active fight song, but I was very fond of yelling "GOBERLIN" at women's volleyball and soccer games.

Hot CRAP! I missed this whole Elsevier story–looks like it broke when I was recovering from surgery. I cannot believe they got away with it! Well, I can, but it doesn’t make happy. Yeesh. Whose side are they on anyway?

Should have guessed. I do not plan on moving to the Hill, so I guess I don’t need to be worried about it. Not that I necessarily have anything against the students, but I went to a college that may or may not have even had a fight song (Katie? Do you know it?), so there are certain things about CU that I find … difficult.

Surprise, surprise… it was on the Hill. I’ve lived on the Hill before (2005-2007), but I think I’ve finally lost my ability to tolerate the CU fight song. Makes me worry that I’m getting old.

Wow. I live in Boulder, and I might be looking for a new place to live soon. Where is this terrible place? I want to go nowhere near it.
