ESU ALMA MATER Words by Tom Isern, Music by Joseph Ott Shall we exalt our University True to our forebears and posterity? Our finest efforts we shall yield In classroom, concert, lab and field And cheers for ESU Shall we remember in our future years Bold shouts of victory or sentimental tears? Then shall the memories abound; We made these hallowed halls resound With cheers for ESU With cheers for ESU
