Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	University of South Florida
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	The song is placed in the article discussing the University of South Florida, a subject of public interest.

Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	Because it is an official song there is almost certainly no free equivalent. Any substitute that is not a derivative work would fail to convey the meaning intended, would tarnish or misrepresent its image, or would fail its purpose of identification or commentary.
