Description

In 1975, at the annual Inter-fraternity Hums contest, “Our Cohogs” was performed by the brothers of Theta Delta Chi to the tune of the nursery rhyme, “This Old Man.” The lyrics are explicit, calling women vulgar names and accusing them of ruining Dartmouth’s “masculine heaven.” A “cohog”, is a combination of the words, “coed” and “quahog”, a type of clam. In this context it is used as a derogatory term for female genitalia. The song was voted most creative and original by Dean of the College, Carroll Brewster.
