Miami-OH - Miami Fight/March Song

Sometimes George Washington tells you to go found a university, and then you do it. In this week’s episode, Eli and Nic cover Miami University (Miami-OH) and discuss Miami Mergers and why it sounds so dirty, the logistics of filling a campus building full of snow, and why Miami University was actually the tipping point (not the starting point) for transitioning away from Native American mascots. There’s also a fight song somewhere in there, too.Check out the Wave the Flag/Ring the Bell playlist here: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLikfCpgScyVctAsfBVHoOKZMoQjOZsTHE&si=N7u8OrjnSlT3KGEmEven though Miami University may have purged the Miami Scalp Song off the internet, a vintage recording featured in our outro can be found here: https://archive.org/details/78_scalp-song_miami-university-band-mens-glee-club-a-h-upham-r-h-burke-a-d-lekv_gbia0416985b Don't believe us when we say that Miami RedHawks were the peak of college mascot name changes, not the beginning?
