I spent two years at Transylvania College. Their Alma Mater, "Hail Transylvania" is set to one of the themes from the 1812 Overture. It's kind of fun, at the Fourth of July Concert, to stand when the theme is played, and sing "Hail Transylvania, Thy sons are we. Our hearts in loyal love we pledge to thee. True to they crimson flag, through all our days. Hail Transylvania we sing thy praise." It's especially fun if you sing it with an accent.
