    During my time at Tech, 2002-2005, I don't remember that part being sung. I don't like it.

    Re: Dumb Question

    Where is Baby thrown in at?

    O Tech, thy halls so beautiful,
    Thy pleasant walks, thy noble trees,
    That charmed me in my college days,
    Are ever dear to me.

    Chorus
    Louisiana Tech I love thee,
    My Alma Mater, my Alma Mater;
    I will ever loyal be
    To thee, my Alma Mater.

    Those old Tech days, those joyful days,
    So cherished in my memory,
    Though days of toil, in many ways
    Were happy days and free.

    Before our beloved "ever loyal be" line

    Is that the lamest school pride term? "Ever loyalbe!"

    Eh, I kinda like it, but I like it because its in the anthem and it has been for however long. You could just as easily pull out Noble Trees.

    And, of course, loyalty is something a lot of our alumni have a problem with :/

    Re: Dumb Question

    As many times as I have sung along with the Alma Mater at games I really can't remember hearing the Bay-Be. I'm sure my artillery ears have something to do with it. I sing along both before the kick-off and after the game. I can never mesh my rhythm/tune exactly with the BOP at the start of the chorus anyway.

    It's painfully obvious the closer you are to the students. It was always a perk of going to Techster games, since only the old guard was there and they respected the anthem.

    Saying "baby" doesn't disrespect anything.

    I don't think so either. It is a "newer" tradition. If we want to get technical, when was the right index finger held high started?? Didn't people then think it was disrespectful then? The "younger" generations hqve great pride for THEIR school too.....just my 2cents
