  • This Recording of the University of California Band Highlights the Traditions and Spirit of the Campus, Some Stretching Back to the Birth of the University
    This recording of the University of California Band highlights the traditions and spirit of the campus, some stretching back to the birth of the University. These songs help to infuse new students every year with the California Spirit, passing on feelings of camaraderie, heart, and brotherhood to new sons and daughters of California. Whether the University hymns or the fight songs played from carillon in Sather Tower, being heard within the confines of California Memorial stadium or Haas Pavilion, these songs have stood the test of time as being parts of the University of California. We record these songs in the hopes that alumni, students, and those connected with the University of California can all enjoy them, and share them with their families. Thanks go to Roschelle Paul for her work in preserving the history of these songs during World War II, the History Committee of the California Alumni Association for their work on The Pride of California: A Cal Band Centennial Celebration in 1993, to the late Howdy Brownson (’48) of the California Men’s Octet, to Director Robert Calonico for his dedication and patience as the guardian to all bandsmen who marched for him, and to the different carriers of the California Spirit who pass their love of the University on to further generations of Californians through song and story. -Kiran N. Permaul, Class of 2014 Fight for California- Music by Earl Elleson McCoy 1906, Lyrics by Robert N. Fitch (’09) 1909, Arranged by Robert O. Briggs (’51) In 1906 Earl McCoy penned the Lights Out March, the signature being Taps in the middle of the break strain.

  • ©2010 Jennifer Elizabeth Guiliano an AMERICAN SPECTACLE: COLLEGE MASCOTS and the PERFORMANCE of TRADITION
    ©2010 Jennifer Elizabeth Guiliano AN AMERICAN SPECTACLE: COLLEGE MASCOTS AND THE PERFORMANCE OF TRADITION BY JENNIFER ELIZABETH GUILIANO DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2009 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Adrian Burgos, Chair Professor Frederick E. Hoxie Professor David R. Roediger Visiting Assistant Professor Michael Giardina ABSTRACT “An American Spectacle: College Mascots and the Performance of Tradition” seeks to understand how college football and its attendant events (termed here “An American Spectacle”) became a vehicle for cultural production by individuals and institutions in specifically raced, gendered, and classed ways. It asks what was the role of this “American Spectacle” in the articulation of individual and group identities at sites across the United States and outlines the individual aspects of the spectacle: bands and musical performances, newspaper writers and narratives of athletics, artistic production and commercial athletic identity, student publications and University identity, and the rituals of performance. In each instance the fundamental exploration is guided by consideration of how individuals and institutions constituted, transformed, and transmitted ideas of Indian mascotry within the spectacle of college football. This dissertation then asks these central questions: How and why were Native Americans represented as sports mascots? What cultural work did these images perform? How did these written narratives, visual images, and live performances create a tradition of performance that branded college football as “an American spectacle?” In answering these questions, “An American Spectacle” vividly illustrates a uniquely American story of race, class, identity, and community that argues for the framing of a complex set of institutions that are uniquely shaped by industrialism, commercialism, capital acquisition and expression, mass democracy, and the nation-state.
