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!"

Camille: Some freshmen are singing the Alma Mater agian.
Joey: Let's join them!
Camille: Are you serious?
Literally everyone in the dining hall: HARK UPON THE GALE! HEAR THE THUNDER OF OUR CHORUS...
