Director of Bands, Albert Perfect, along with journalism student DeWitt Gilbert, wrote the fight song, "The Mighty Oregon March", which was first performed on March 4, 1916.  For the song's most popular section, Perfect fashioned a new melody to fit into the harmony from "It's a Long Way to Tipperary," a hit 1912 World War I march.  The catchy popularity of the harmony was not lost on Perfect, a man well-educated in music theory, originally subtitled the song "The Tipperary of the West."
