. ode to Whitworth .

My college days are behind me, but my heart is still with Whitworth! I am proud of my alma mater, I loved the time I got to spend there, and the community that I’m apart of. I get excited when I hear about someone going to Whitworth, even just to visit! I love filling out recommendation forms for my students applying to Whitworth. I also love that some of my family members and my closest friends are Whitworthians too!

I stumbled upon this the other day…it’s a parody of a Ke$ha song with Whitworth lyrics. It’s pretty darn accurate and oh-so-funny. I can’t figure out how to add the mp3 link so you can hear it. Here’s the website link (http://www.reverbnation.com/artist/song_details/7785763) – over on the right you can “play” the song. If you’re a Whitworthian, do it – it’ll make you smile!

Wake up in the morning in the Lilac City
Got my classes, I’m out the door, I’m off to Core 350
Before I leave, brush my teeth in the bathroom of Mac
But I don’t stay for the night because cohab’s whack

I’m talking
Diving for falling cones, cones
Dropping food in Sodex-ho
Boys senior year pro-pose, pose
Oh yeah I’m wearin’ my North Face fleece-ee
Camelbaks and Young Life tees
Tryin’ to play ultimate fris…bee…

Whitworth
Best on earth
BJ, Boppell, East, what up tonight?
Heart and mind
See you all at Prime Time
B-Rob’s
Off the job
But the party don’t stop, no
Oh oh oh oh

Whitworth
Best on earth
Freshman triple to a dorm, so tight
Card is swiped
For the food at Late Night
Mock Rock
Dorms are locked
Past eleven o’clock, yo
Oh oh oh oh

Best chocolate milk in the world
Who needs money for beer?
I’m spending Tuesday at Hosanna
Ev’ry night of the year
And now the dudes are lining up
Cause they Woo like a player
But we kick ‘em to the curb
Unless they tweet like Beck Taylor

I’m talking bout
Ev’rybody sleeps in bunks
Boys on the ball team dunk
Drop your classes if you’re going to flunk flunk
N-now I’m telling my RA about bout
How my roommate kicked me out out
Noise was way too loud loud
No no not allowed

Whitworth
Best on Earth
Drinking coffee in the Hub at night
Sipping wine
(Sacramental, that’s fine)
Thieves mock
Cause we’re shocked
All our bikes are unlocked, yo

Whitworth
Best on Earth
Want turn my papers in on time
Get denied
Because Blackboard’s offline
Sweet talk
Hello walk
Christian flirting nonstop, yo

(Financial Aid)

You bill me tons
These great amounts
My interest rounds to the top fee

Bill me for junk
Like caps and gowns
Just a B.A., no Ph.D.

You bill me tons
These great amounts
My interest rounds to the top fee

One thing I’ll say
Would Jesus make
His students pay?

So forgive me Dear Lord, for I have sinned…

Whitworth
Best on earth
BJ, Boppell, East, what up tonight?
Heart and mind
See you all at Prime Time
B-Rob’s
Off the job
But the party don’t stop, no
Oh oh oh oh

Whitworth
It’s our turf
Freakin’ worldview studies rock!
All right!
Takin’ flight
Cause we’re really Christlike
Those Zags?
Make me gag
Cause they’re all complete f…ailures
Oh oh oh oh
