St. Cloud State Traditions:History of the NicknameThe.Husky.Nickname:.St..Cloud.State's.nickname.has.gone. through. several. changes. over. the. years.. Early.nicknames. included. "Normals,". "Teachers,". "Bear.Cats,"."Peds,".and."Flying.Clouds."

There. are. several. theories. about. how. the. nickname."Huskies".began.to.be.used..One.says.that.it.is.a.result.of. a. student. contest.. Another. suggests. that. the. name.originated.with.the.football.team..

There.was.a.story.in.the.February.4,.1938,.edition.of.the.College.Chronicle.which.referred. to. the."football.huskies.".Since.huskies.was.not.capitalized.in.the.story,.the. author. could. have. been. referring. to. the. team's.size,.and.this.possibly.led.to.the.nickname..Another.theory.is.that.the.nickname.originated.within.the. football. team.. "I. think. it. occurred. during. Coach.Kasch's.days.as.football.coach.(1935-42),".said.John.Weisman,. former. SCSU. Dean. of. Men. and. former.coach.. "The. team. just. started. calling. themselves. the."Huskies.".

Why.the.name.was.chosen.or.who.exactly.selected.it.remains.unclear..The.name.could.have.been.intended.to.mean."burly,.robust.or. large,"."one.that. is.husky,".or."a.heavily.coated.working.dog.of.the.arctic.region.”

Perhaps. the. nickname. was. meant. to. encompass. all.three. meanings.. Regardless. of. its. origin,. the. Husky.nickname. continues. to. represent. SCSU. as. a. symbol.and.image.of.strength.

The St. Cloud State RouserOh,.here.we.are,.the.gang.and.all,to.cheer.our.team.to.victory.SCSU.has.heard.the.call,We're.here.to.show.our.loyalty,.RAH!.RAH!Come.on.team.fight,.We'll.win.this.game,and.to.our.colors.we'll.be.true.We'll.sing.our.song,.both.loud.and.long,to.victory.—.S.C.S.U..

The St. Cloud State HymnSing. to. thee. our. Alma. Mater,. High. on. oak-crowned.banks,.Emblem.of.our.search.for.knowledge,.Symbol.of. our. youthful. ranks,. Filled. with. fires. of. true. ambi-tion,.Let.us.ever.be;.Loyal.to.thy.fine.tradition,.Hail.St..Cloud,.to.thee.

By. the. river’s. flowing. water,. By. its. islands. fair,. may.the. loyal. sons. and. daughters,. thy. enduring. friend-ship. share.. May. they. with. sincere. ambition,. through.the.years.e’er.be;.Loyal. to. thy.fine. tradition,.Hail.St..Cloud,.to.thee.
