The Tribe Fight Song is the official fight song of The College of William & Mary, located in Williamsburg, Virginia. Throughout the College's history there have been three official fight songs.[1] The original fight song, titled Victory, was written in 1929 by Oscar E. Wilkinson.[1] Two years later, a new fight song titled Fight, Fight, Fight for the Indians1 was published in the William & Mary student handbook.[1] Many years later, a third edition was written which is still used today. Simply Tribe Fight Song, it is supposed to be sung after every touchdown the Tribe football team scores at home games.[1]

A second, lesser known song was composed by Rolf Kennard in the 1930s. The William & Mary Victory March is occasionally played before games, most often at Homecoming.
