ALMA MATER
Far above the river winding
Midst the mountains grand,
Stands our College, dear to students
Far throughout the land.

Ever seaward Susquehanna
Never resting flows;
Ever upward, striving, climbing
Onward Bloomsburg goes.

Far and wide though we may wander,
Still our hearts are true;
To our hilltop Alma Mater
We our pledge renew.

Chorus
Bloomsburg, Bloomsburg,
Bloomsburg College
Up on College Hilt;
Years to come shall find us eTCr
True to Bloomsburg still.

Words-Joseph H. Dennis
