ALMA MATE IS Fairest of all is our dear Mississippi, Rising in state as the crest of the hill; Staunch as a rock is our Dear Alma Mater, ' Round her so noble our hopes ever live. When in the future, our hearts may be yearning For the bright scenes of our dear college youth, Back to thy portals our memories turning, Clear gleams thy beacons of virtue and truth. M. C., we hail thee, our dear Mississippi, Queen of our hearts, no foe shall alarm; Faithful and loyal thy children shall ever Cherish thy mem ' ry, acknowledge thy charm. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands — one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.
