18 The University Hymn

Glory hast thou, might and power,

Proud the halls ofISU;

Deeds that live in song and story,

Loyal sons and daughters true.

So shalt thou in years increasing

Send thy sons of honest worth

Forth to bear with zeal unceasing

Wisdom's torch throughout the earth.

"The Uni versity Hymn" was written in 1926 by fac ulty members Wanda Neiswanger and Je nnie Whitte n. The music, the "Emperor's Hymn" or the "Austri an National Hymn," was composed by Franz Joseph Hayd n and later used by him in hi s String Q1101tet, op. 76, 110. 3. The University Hymn

Glory hast thou, might and power,

Proud the halls ofISU;

Deeds that live in song and story,

Loyal sons and daughters true.

So shalt thou in years increasing

Send thy sons of honest worth

Forth to bear with zeal unceasing

Wisdom's torch throughout the earth.
