''Alma Mater'' is the name of the official school song of Kansas State University. In 1888, when the university was still Kansas State Agricultural College, H.W. Jones submitted the song as part of a school-wide contest. It was originally a four-stanza song and, over the years, some lyrics have changed.<ref name="KS">{{Cite web|url=http://www.kstatesports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=400&KEY=&ATCLID=37671|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090822232241/http://www.kstatesports.com/ViewArticle.dbml?DB_OEM_ID=400&KEY=&ATCLID=37671|url-status=dead|title=Kansas State Traditions – Kansas State University Wildcats Official Athletics Site|archive-date=August 22, 2009}}</ref> The song is sung at most K-State sporting events by fans, students and alumni. [[Wildcat Victory]] and [[Wabash Cannonball]] are both commonly used as fight songs. Wildcat Victory is used by many high schools as their fight song. Since the early 2010s, K-State students have chanted obscenities at sporting events toward their rival, the [[University of Kansas]], to [[Darude]]'s [[Sandstorm (instrumental)|Sandstorm]] and the Wabash Cannonball. This tradition has continued despite the efforts of Hall of Fame Football Coach [[Bill Snyder]], Kansas State Basketball Coach, [[Jerome Tang]], and Band Director, Frank Tracz.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.wibw.com/content/news/Bill-Snyder-puts-end-to-obscene-anti-KU-chant-real-quick-449078053.html|title=Bill Snyder puts end to obscene, anti-KU chant real quick|date=October 2, 2017 |publisher=WIBW|access-date=January 18, 2023}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.wibw.com/2023/01/19/ksu-coach-jerome-tang-kshsaa-urge-sportsmanship-after-sunflower-showdown/|title=KSU coach Jerome Tang, KSHSAA urge sportsmanship after Sunflower Showdown|publisher=WIBW|access-date=January 18, 2023}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.kstatecollegian.com/2017/10/01/band-stops-mid-wabash-cannonball-after-vulgar-chant-flares-in-student-section/|title=Band stops mid-Wabash Cannonball after 'vulgar chant' flares in student section|date=October 2, 2017 |publisher=Kansas State Collegian|access-date=January 18, 2023}}</ref>
