The Alma Mater - by H.A. Mooney Class of 1909...
With myrtle wreath we'll deck thy brow,
Bonas, old St. Bonas
The verdant leaves our love avow,
Bonas, old St. Bonas
Thy name was ever fair and bright,
We'll keep it thus with memory's light
And laud they glorious brown and white
Bonas, old St. Bonas
Our hearts shall ever be thy shrine
Bonas, old St. Bonas
Around they name shall honor twine
Bonas, old St. Bonas
E'er hallowed shall thy memory grow,
Through the years have fled and years shall flow,
Within our souls they love shall grow,
Bonas, old St. Bonas!

Unfurl the Brown and White by L.G. O'Brien SBU '25, and C.R Kean SBU '24
Unfurl the Brown and White
Into the Breeze;
Snow of the mountain height;
Brown of the trees!
Emblem of loyalty
Manhood and might,
We love thy shining folds,
Of Brown and White!
Hark! The trumpets are calling,
Drums like thunder resound;
Feet in rhythm are falling
Armies shaking the ground!
Rise to the march
Fill the sky with a throaty cheer - Rah!
Unfurl the Brown and White
Into the breeze;
Snow of the mountain height;
Brown of the trees!
Emblem of loyalty
Manhood and might,
We love thy shining folds
of Brown and White!

Yea its a cult and the two reunion weekends this year just proved it.
Hopefully the new President understands and accepts our cultural heritage.....he is a civilian Jesuit after all, and the Jesuits have traditionally looked down on the Franciscans as the lesser, even though the Franciscans are a much older order..........we will see!
Let the fun begin!
