- Keep The term and song are popularly understood to be synonymous with Yale. The first page of returns from a search [1] indicates that it's been written about at length in Yale publications, and has been used in headlines in the NY and LA Times as an immediately recognizable symbol for Yale. Perhaps sources and citations can be expanded in the article, but I don't think there's a doubt re: notability. The sourced claim "it sold more sheet music in the first half of 1901 than any other song in the country" ought to be sufficient. 76.248.147.199 (talk) 23:35, 11 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]
