Here in California the school must fly a US flag and annually have an event concerning the Constitution -- or federally-backed loans for students would not be available. (Some of us proposed the flag be 'flown' annually in a locked lobby on July 4, but we lost out to an administrative decision.) I've never noticed any singing at our intramural games -- we might get complaints if we did.
