The Spirit of Culver. S. E. Kiser quotes

The hope to win, the zeal to dare.

Contempt for what is base and mean;

Pride in achievement that is fair,

And high regard for what is clean;

The strength that is in brotherhood,

The courage that proclaims success;

The will to strive for what is good,

And, first and always, excellence

                           - S. E. Kiser
