Â鶹ÊÓƵ celebrates the rich traditions that define what it means to be a member of the Â鶹ÊÓƵ family. The lifelong connection begins the moment students register for their first class.
The Â鶹ÊÓƵ ring is a symbol of that connection and represents the accomplishments and experiences of your college years. The Â鶹ÊÓƵ ring will remind you of your pride in Â鶹ÊÓƵ long after you leave the campus, and will demonstrate that pride to others.
Education is an honor. Graduates of Â鶹ÊÓƵ represent the tremendous opportunity available to bright, well-educated individuals as well as the impact of these graduates on their communities.
As a constant reminder of the achievements of Â鶹ÊÓƵ alumni and of the traditions that connect all graduates of our institution, we are pleased to offer the Official Â鶹ÊÓƵ Class Ring.
The ring evokes strong memories of the traditions and occasions of Â鶹ÊÓƵ – the fight song, “Let’s Go Big Red!”, the Mirabeau B. Lamar bust on the quadrangle, and all of the academic and student buildings that represent the vibrant and energetic life of the campus and of the students whose futures are shaped there every day. The ring is a symbolic link to Â鶹ÊÓƵ.
The ring is reserved exclusively for those who have successfully met the University standards. The ring was designed by a group of Â鶹ÊÓƵ students, alumni and administrators and will remain unchanged in the university’s future.
You have earned the right to wear this ring by your hard work and perseverance. When you proudly wear the ring, you will display to all of the world your accomplishments and your connection to your alma mater.
I invite you to become a part of this important tradition and forge a visible and permanent link to Â鶹ÊÓƵ. Wear your official Â鶹ÊÓƵ ring proudly.
With Cardinal Pride,
