It’s a celebration of accomplishment.
For students who have reached a level of academic success the Ring Celebration is a milestone. Last weekend students from Texas State University celebrated their achievement christening their class rings in a new fountain with water pumped straight from the San Marcos River.
Hundreds of Bobcats, family and friends gathered marked the Spring event on May 7-8 at the Meadows Center.
The scenic Meadows Center provided a great backdrop for the tradition. The official class ring is reserved exclusively for currently enrolled graduate students, degree-holding alumni and undergraduate students who have completed 75 cumulative credit hours. The Ring Celebration is an event reserved exclusively for participation by Bobcats wearing the official class ring, provided by Balfour.
