MacLean Engineering Sciences Center Dedication Song

(Set to the Alma Mater)
Dear Old Dartmouth give a rouse
For the brand new MacLean
For this atrium triumphant, and new lab facilities
Give a rouse give a rouse with a will
For Barry MacLean
And his balconies supreme
Though Bill Lotko likes atmospheres, his head's not in the clouds
Hard work with Robbie and Levey they've made Thayer oh so proud
Please thank Koetter Kim, your architects, they've given two whole years
You know it's hard on architects to deal with engineers
Dear old Dartmouth give a rouse, for the generous donors
For dear Peter Fahey, they'll name a bike rack in your honor
Give a rouse give a rouse with a will
For Barbara and Dick Couch, for Laurel and Bill Daniel,
For Dana and Charles Nearburg, for the Zaleskis, Caroline and Michel
We hear there's free beer on Fridays, we think that's really swell
For the Harris' Meg and Clint, John Ballard and the Allyns
And lest we forget Gerngross and Hutchinson
Dear old students give a rouse
Here's a place for you to work
No excuses, now, quit slackin'
Grab your protractors, get crackin'
Undergrads, as you walk, to your dorm
Watch some x-ray defraction
Or some crystal growth testing
Tho' round the world your genius spreads
A family you remain
With new-found collaborations, and sharing of idears
May the new MacLean inspire you, to success for all the years
May the new MacLean inspire you, to success for all the years
