The Colorado State University Fight Song, known as "Stalwart Rams", is the official fight song for Colorado State University.
Features of its uniqueness include the use of the word "stalwart", meaning unrelenting and full of ardor, and the third line of the song which allows the fight song to be adapted for each game, from "tear the Buffaloes' line asunder" to "tear the Cowboys' line asunder."
The "Colorado State University Fight Song" was written by Richard F. Bourne, then the director of the marching band and a veterinary medicine professor at Colorado Agricultural College in Fort Collins.
[1] The song's lyrics were first published in the Rocky Mountain Collegian on November 16, 1932 and debuted at the football game against Utah three days later.
[1][2] The original lyrics were slightly different than the current ones, including the line "fight on ye stalwart aggies" as the Colorado State Rams were referred to as the Aggies during this time.
