MIT, Monterrey Institute of Technology,
University of Wisconsin, we're all Engineers,
and it's "The Engineers' Song", to be universally
standardized, and then customized at every individual location,
and permuted at every performance (as long as the melody stays
sufficiently close to "Glory, Glory, Halleluia").

One verse I recall from Madison:

"Godiva was a Lady
 Who through Coventry did ride;
 To show to all the populace
 Her pure-white, naked hide.
 There was a man in Coventry
 (An Engineer, of course)
 Who cried "So that's an Ass?
 Ye men be daft:
 Godiva's on a HORSE!"
