Re: Merry Newton Carols/ Physics Songs



I  keep a copy of the carols published in The Physics Teacher, Dec. 1990 in my desk drawer.  They were submitted by Robert C. Hillborn of Amherst College, MA.  My favorite:

God Rest Ye Merry Physics Profs
    God rest ye merry Physics profs
    Let nothing you dismay.
    Don't moan or cry if you must all
    Grade finals Christmas Day
    To save you from the registrar
    If grades aren't on the way.
    Chorus: Oh, oh, tidings of A's, B's, and C's
    Mostly C's
    Oh, oh, tidings of A's, B's, and C's.

Happy Holidays!

Christmas is rapidly approaching.
I believe Issac Newton was born on December 25th.

I would like to send my high school physics students out to
do "Newton" Carols  similar to Christmas Carols.

Once upon a time I had started to collect such Newton Carols, but no
longer have the collection.

So how about it Physics Lists? Do you have any old carols? How
about some new carols?
