*The Star Spangled Banner Led by Bill Stewart, M.H.A., 2006<br />
by Francis Scott Key<br />
Oh, say can you see by the dawn’s early light<br />
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?<br />
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,<br />
O’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming?<br />
And the rocket’s red glare, the bombs bursting in air,<br />
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.<br />
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave<br />
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?<br />
*Alma Mater<br />
by Mamie Walker, Class of 1917<br />
Hail, Alma Mater! Hail!<br />
Joyous we sing;<br />
Voices a-tune with love<br />
shall loudly ring.<br />
Thy students sing today<br />
praises to thee.<br />
Hail, Texas Woman’s University.<br />
Led by Mr. Stewart<br />
On broad and rolling plains,<br />
ʼneath Texas skies,<br />
there, crowned with majesty<br />
thy buildings rise.<br />
Thou hast with purpose new<br />
lighted our way.<br />
Hail! Alma Mater!<br />
Hear our songs today.<br />
*Audience standing if able.<br />
The name announcer is Ann St. Germain, M.S.N., Associate Clinical Professor of Nursing Emerita.<br />
