Alma Mater
Fairfield! See the stag with cross of gold
Rears once more its undefeated head.
Fair our field, as any field of old,
Bids our banners, like our blood, be red.
“Through faith, unto total truth,” our cry
Swells from the sea to spire and sky;
Hear, Alma Mater, hear! Fairfield, hail!
Mem’ries fold away the thought of thee:
Autumn roses crimson on the bough,
Bright snow breaking to the dogwood tree
Keeps spring singing, then as now.
“Through faith, unto total truth,” our cry
Swells from the sea to spire and sky;
Hear, Alma Mater, hear! Fairfield, hail!
- Lyrics by John L. Bonn, S .J .
Fight Songs
“The Fairfield University Fight Song” was written by Prof . Brian Torff during the 1995-96 academic year for a contest sponsored by the Fairfield University Student Association .
Come catch the spirit, Fairfield U.
For all to hear it, Fairfield U.
Red and White will always conquer,
Go for the winner ‘till the end, and so we’ll
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight for Fairfield U.,
Each day and night our hearts will be true,
And all across the land we’ll always stand by Fairfield U.
And all across the land we’ll always stand by Fairfield U!
“The Men in Red” was written by Rudy Ross ’51 when Fairfield was an all-male institution.
The men in Red will always fight for Fairfield.
The men in Red will fight tonight for Fairfield.
We’ll stick out our chin, and we’ll wind up with a win, with a grin.
The men in Red will raise a shout for Fairfield.
The men in Red will go all out for Fairfield,
As we go on rolling up the score for dear old Fairfield ever more
