We won a small bowl game (D2) my senior year so I got a bowl ring instead of a grad ring.

I wouldn't have gotten a grad ring.

I keep a bell on my desk, so that every time I whack a thread, I ring the bell with my ring!

Maybe the RING finger...

almost had my finger torn off while fishing from my wedding ring.


What happened? I know ppl working with equipment usually remove their rings for that exact reason.

When I graduated with my BSEE from LSU in '89 my dad passed on his ring (BSME LSU class of '59). I don't wear it, but I won't give it up. As far as I'm concerned it's priceless.

I wear mine every day. It was a graduation gift from my dad. My grandfather's (1956), my dad's (1980), and mine (2007) are all the exact same. The Carolina ring is pretty classy... not flashy at all.

Not I. Only jewelry I really wear is my wedding ring.

I never wore yellow gold until I got my ring, but I am glad that mine is.

Had one, lost it when my apartment was broken in to in NOLA two years after graduation. I'm sure an Arkansas graduation ring brought a pretty penny in the Lower Ninth the next day.

My dad wanted to get me one when I graduated. I graduated from Bama in '98 and probably have worn the thing a grand total of 5 times since then.

Kind of a waste of money in my opinion. You can always get one later if you decide you want one.

Don't have a HS one, but I got one for my BS from UA. I've worn it to a few homecoming games but I really just consider it more of a keepsake than an accessory.

I didn't. Only jewelry I wear is my wedding band and a watch. And even those two annoy me.
