THE ALMA MATER

To Alma Mater fair and great,
our voices now we raise,
Our gratitude we demonstrate,
Her steady voice we praise.
Her challenge on us ever falls,
a world of knowledge calls.
In heart and mind,
our trust we’ll bind
to our NJIT.
We’ll hold her memory ever dear,
Her spirit we’ll revere.
To her we’ll promise loyalty,
our own NJIT.
