Adaptations
The tune for the alma mater of Yale University, "Bright College Years", was taken from Carl Wilhelm's "Die Wacht am Rhein". New lyrics to the "splendid tune" were written by Henry Durand in 1881.
The tune is also used by School Of The Holy Spirit Of Quezon City (Philippines) for their Alma Mater Song, "SHS Hymn," as well as the Alma Mater song of Holy Spirit Academy of Malolos, which is also based in the Philippines. The tune was also used by Hotchkiss School for their hymn "Fair Hotchkiss". The tune is also used by Doshisha University for its school song, "Doshisha College Song".
