Ski-U-Mah (pronounced sky-you-ma) is a slogan used at the University of Minnesota since 1894.
Two rugby players, John W. Adams and Win Sargent, invented it by combining "Ski", a Sioux battle cry, with "U Mah", for the University of Minnesota.
In the mid-20th century, Ski-U-Mah (magazine) was a U of M humor magazine.
The wording is used as the name of a meeting room at the McNamara Alumni Center and of a campus parking lot, and as the title of a yearbook-style publication published by the Minnesota Daily. It is also part of the lyrics of the "Minnesota Rouser", "Go Gopher Victory", "Minnesota Fight" and "Minnesota March".
