The Razorback, characterized by a ridge back and its tenacious, wild fighting ability, immediately became a popular nickname, and one year after motorbus Bezdek'southward statement, the student body voted to modify the official mascot to Razorbacks.

Tusk

The tradition of having a live Razorback mascot attention football games and other events has been a fan favorite since the university'due south showtime hooved animate being made its debut in the 1960s.

Alma Mater

The carillon in Old Main'south bell tower plays the Alma Mater every day at v p.m. and at noon on the first day of classes each fall.

Watches thy Soul from the mountains of God.

Pride of our hearts that are loyal and truthful.
From those who adore unto ane who adores u.s.
Mother of Mothers, we sing unto y'all.
