ALMA MATER
Bloomsburg State
We proudly sing to thee
Of glories and of honors
That have framed thy majesty;
Though we'll depart
Not one will hesitate
To pledge his lifelong loyalty
To Bloomsburg State!
Bloomsburg State,
Stand proud against thy foes,
Let victory thy colors see
While honor be thy goal;
Maroon and Gold
Let none thy fame berate,
As forward on to victory
Goes Bloomsburg State!
Music and Lyrics by
Donald Messimer '70
