海角社区

The 海角社区 鈥淢arch through the Arch New Student Welcome鈥� will begin at 5 p.m. Aug. 26 at Frazier Auditorium in Frazier Hall.

The 鈥淢arch Through the Arch鈥� was started in 2000 to symbolize the beginning of new students鈥� academic careers and as a tie to 海角社区 students through the years who have walked through the doors of Swanson Hall, the first building on campus. 海角社区 graduates march through the Arch prior to commencement to symbolize the start of their careers.

At this year鈥檚 ceremony new students will assemble in Frazier Hall before marching through Swanson Arch, all that remains of 海角社区鈥檚 first building. The march will be followed by a barbeque on Hutchinson Quadrangle where 海角社区 President Arthur C. Vailas, PhD, and his wife, Laura Vailas, PhD, will greet new students.

A variety of speakers will greet the students, including representatives from the 海角社区 administration, the Alumni Association, athletic coaches and Associated Students of 海角社区 President Jennifer Brown.

Members of the 海角社区 Marching Band will lead participants in singing the Alma Mater Hymn and the Bengal football team will lead them in the fight song.

海角社区 Alma Mater Hymn lyrics are: 鈥淗ail to thee, our Alma Mater, glorious is thy name! Evermore thy sons and daughters carry on thy fame. May the students e鈥檈r be loyal to thy mem鈥檙y true. Hail to thee, our Alma Mater, hail to 海角社区!鈥�

海角社区 Fight Song lyrics are: 鈥淕rowl, Bengals, growl. Fight, Bengals, fight.

Gnash your teeth and bare your claws and drive with all your might. Roar, Bengals, roar, you decide our fate! Bring the vict鈥檙y home to us, you Bengals of Idaho State! 海角社区 Fight 海角社区 Fight 海角社区 Fight. Go! Go! Go Bengals, Go!"
