Hail Varsity

"Hail Varsity" is a fight song of the University of Nebraska–Lincoln, often played at football games by the University of Nebraska Cornhusker Marching Band. The band song is often played before playing Hail Varsity. The lyrics were written by Joyce Ayres, a 1930 Nebraska graduate, and the music was composed by Wilbur Chenoweth. There are three other fight songs, "Dear Old Nebraska U," "March of the Cornhuskers," and "The Cornhuskers (Come a Runnin' Boys)."^[1]
