We Hail Thee Carolina : ウィキペディア英語版 | We Hail Thee Carolina
"We Hail Thee Carolina" is the alma mater of the University of South Carolina. It was adopted by the University in 1912 and is sung by alumni and students at Gamecock athletic events. The alma mater is also used to conclude each football game, home or away. ==History== ''The Gamecock'' reported in its March 1911 issue that very little progress had been made on the alma mater for the University despite a reward of $50 by the faculty. English professor, George A. Wauchope, took it upon himself and wrote the lyrics for the alma mater in 1911 set to the tune ''Flow Gently, Sweet Afton'' by Jonathan Spilman. Other songs were written and sung, but Wauchope's song proved to be the most popular and it was adopted by the University in 1912.〔(USC: Office of the University Registrar: A University Tradition )〕 The tradition has developed that alumni raise their right fist as though raising a cup for the phrase "Here's A Health, Carolina" as if offering a toast.〔(USC: Alma Mater )〕
