Replace "Shine on Forever"

"Shine on Forever" is an embarrassing alma mater song to say the least. Perhaps set the lyrics to the USSR National Anthem, whydontcha (try singing it, it's great), or anything else, really.

Why is this important?

I don't want to receive my Bachelors while some poor tenor is forced to sing the musical abomination that is "Shine on Forever". Change the lyrics or the tune to which it's set, I don't care. Had I known about this awful song before I accepted, I would not be attending CWRU. Please, for the love of all that is good music, fix this now!
