Tuftonia's Day, the Tufts University fight song, was written by a 1916 graduate of the university, Elliot Wright Hayes. Tuftonia's Day itself is April 21, marking the founding of the university on that day in 1852.
Sadly, according to a Google search of the Tufts University web sites, the song does not appear anywhere on the university's servers.
[edit] Lyrics
Steady and true, rush along, Brown and Blue. Raise a mighty score today Fearless tear down the field and never yield! Brown and Blue, Brown and Blue for aye! Hammer them hard, boys, and break through their guard. That is old Tuftonia's way. And our glorious banner once again will wave o'er Tuftonia's Day. T-U-F-T-S, T-U-F-T-S, Hurrah! Hurrah! for dear old Brown and Blue! Up on the Hill tonight all will be gay Victorious in the fight, we'll raise the standard of dear old Tufts to glory! Pile up a mighty score. It's bound to soar. Now one goal more! Nothing can stop us; it's Tuftonia's Day. Push it right through, boys, we're rooting for you! Now smash their guard once more. See, they are losing fast, their line can't last! Brown and Blue, boys, forevermore. Right through the hole, lads, and make it a goal in the good old fashioned way. And we'll turn out with a lusty shout to honor Tuftonia's Day. T-U-F-T-S, T-U-F-T-S, Hurrah! Hurrah! for dear old Brown and Blue! Up on the Hill tonight all will be gay Victorious in the fight, we'll raise the standard of dear old Tufts to glory! Pile up a mighty score. It's bound to soar. Now one goal more! Nothing can stop us; it's Tuftonia's Day.
