First down CHANT M.W.S.U. The campus community shows its pride by wearing Griffon gear every Friday. You could even win a prize just by wearing black and gold! Clock Tower Legend When walking under the clock tower, walk around the seal. Legend has it if a student steps on the seal, he or she won’t graduate. After graduation, seniors walk over the seal. Griffon for Luck It is said that those who ask for the mighty Griffon’s protection will be watched over on their quest for education. Prospective students ask the Griffon for his protection by rubbing his head as they depart on a campus tour. At commencement, students leave the University as they came in; with one last request for protection and luck on their next quest. Fight Song The fight song is played by the band and sung before every game. The cannon is fired at Commencement after the graduates receive their degrees. Also, the cannon is fired at the beginning of every football game and after every touchdown. Fire the CANNON Rally Towels Students have black and gold rally towels out and swinging in the air at athletic events. Victory Forest After every home football victory, teammates, coaches, students and fans gather in the Victory Forest to hear a post-game speech from the coach, followed by the Fight Song.
