"Harvardiana" is also the title of a song of Harvard University written by R.G. Williams and S.B. Steel (members of the Harvard class of 1911). The song uses the name "Eli" to refer to athletic rival Yale University. It is a more modern tradition for females to shout "Radcliffe" in between the final chorus of "Harvard" in the song.
