MSU Shadows was officially adopted as the alma mater for Michigan State on April 21, 1949. Shadows was chosen by student vote after a long effort to identify and obtain a distinctive melody for the university.

The music is taken from the Italian opera “Lucia di Lammermoor.” The lyrics were penned by Bernard “Barney” Traynor, an assistant football coach on staff from 1925–27.
