A line from the William and Mary alma mater song. The full verse goes:
"William and Mary, loved of old,
Hark upon the gale!
Hear the thunder of our chorus,
Alma mater hail!"
The college and the students use this phrase a lot, both seriously and in jokes. It is a well-known phrase to anyone at the college.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
