No on the class ring. I think it is a Texas thing and most of the schools out here do it.

I know a kid who goes to A&M Galveston(the Sea Aggies) and he is begging his parents to get him an A&M ring. I guess they're all just brainwashed into begging their parents to buy a class ring when they first attend? I would rather have a Rolex....

Again, it's a military college thing, not a Texas thing.

Most of the Aggies I know bought their rings themselves or even had them handed down.

If you were an Aggie, no you would not.

Sea Aggies are Aggies by the way. It's not a satellite school, A&M Galveston is actually part of Texas A&M College Station. A&M Qatar is also in the same position. Both are eligible for rings and their diplomas will just say Texas A&M University.
