You majored in sociology and now you want a school ring? *CORNY!* And they just look awful. The materials are shoddy and they aren't even authentic. The only hustle I can't hate on is Herff-Jones raping school kids out of their money for crappy items. I believe rings started out as something for people who played sports...not because you got a degree in communications. Cop a hoodie, a shirt, a coffee mug or even a car decal and call it a day. But hey, i'm a fan of "Doing You" so if you feel comfortable, then by all means go ahead. Free country, right? Actually, I believe West Point started the class ring tradition.

I tried to wear it for the first 6 months out of college, lasted about 3 weeks. I'd probably break it out for networking events with fellow alumni. speak softly and carry a big stick -Roosevelt variety is the spice of life

They might have started the class ring tradition, but I thought decorative and ornate rings as a means of celebration or commemorating events in general, started with sports. Not just as jewelry. "Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY." --Herman Goering at the Nuremberg Trials

Anyway, I'm out of high school & college, but still plan on getting them. They're just not really a priority, and even back then, I'm sure there were more important stuff I was paying for before I could even think about those. I look at it as a tradition thing more than anything. I don't think I'm too cool for that. If you decide to get it now, cool, if you don't, it's all good. *Houston Texans Seattle Seahawks Houston* *Rockets* Spurs Supersonics @MegaWuBanga RIDING WITH LEINART
