Columbia University Marching Band (CUMB) that generally does stupid stuff like Orgo Night.

Recently celebrated CUMB100, its centenary.

History

The CUMB of yore

We used to have a real "rah-rah-let's-go-team" band. Current bandies refer to that as the "Fascist" Band. That broke up sometime around the late 70s / early 80s (approximately when we started really sucking at football), and now we have a scramble band.

The only Ivy League school that has a "real" band as opposed to a scramble band is Cornell. Non-Ivy schools that have scramble bands include University of Virginia (sorta), Stanford, Rice, and University of Pennsylvania.

Slogans

  • G(tb)2
  • If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the band.
  • The cleverest band in the world.
