Excerpt from Students Songs: Comprising the Newest and Most Popular College Songs as Now Sung at Harvard, Yale, Columbia, Cornell, Johns Hopkins, Dartmouth, Amherst, Michigan, Vassar, Brown, Wellesley, Princeton, Williams, Bowdoin, Wesleyan, Trinity, Lafayette, Boston, Tufts, Union
Before the publication of Students' Songs, there was no collection of college-music including the songs which have had their origin, and become popular, within the last ten or fifteen years. All exist ing collections were out of date. The new songs, of which a great number had sprung into life, were nowhere to be found in print. They were known to comparatively few; and it was inevitable, that, unless they were put in permanent form, they would soon be forgotten, and lost forever.
