Senior Class Council

The mission of the Senior Class Council (SCC), a committee of the Student Alumni Leadership Council (SALC),
is to benefit and unite seniors through events and services while promoting an understanding of the Iowa State
University Alumni Association. The 2021-2022 Senior Class Council is comprised of students who are dedicated to
recognizing seniors for their many achievements. The Senior Class Council plans a number of programs for seniors
including both Fall and Spring Senior Weeks where students enjoy food on campus; the Senior Package, a gift set that
included commemorative Iowa State items; and the Senior Send-off, a year-end event for seniors at the ISU Alumni
Center to celebrate seniors’ transitions to being alumni! The events that SCC plans and co-sponsors are intended to be
both beneficial and enjoyable for seniors. To learn more about the Iowa State University Alumni Association, go to www.

The Bells of Iowa State

The History of “The Bells of Iowa State”

James C. Wilson (1900-1995) was a member of Iowa State’s English faculty from 1928 to
1931. He had to resign due to his lack of a Ph.D., and prior to his departure, he submitted
a college song candidate for a song contest sponsored by the Iowa State Club of Chicago.

Jim and his wife, Alice, moved to Chicago where as he notes, “We (in addition to their two

babies) had $212 in cash from my last paycheck, our five-year-old Chevrolet, and the tent.”

He won first place with “The Bells of Iowa State,” and the family was able to purchase a

Iowa State University Library small cottage on Lake Michigan.
Special Collections Department

“When I wrote ‘The Bells of Iowa State,’ I thought then that it had much more depth and
emotion than your basic football fight song,” Wilson said. “Its continuing popularity leaves
me very pleased, not so much because it’s my own song, but because it has had such a good
effect on those who have been touched by it.” (The Iowa Stater, June 1983)
