    I really wish people would buy into the University ring concept. Some of the ring stories I hear from the Aggies are awesome (like losing the ring while on a tour of duty in Japan, having another Aggie find it in a pawn shop, and buy/ship it back to the States with his own money). Would be nice to have a sense of family like that with Iowa State.
    Problem is ISU is known for its ag school. Unless you are thinking about stories like: lost ring...and finger...while working on the auger, son found it years later while cleaning out the bin before he left for his first year at ISU.

    I was thinking more along the lines of Billy Crystal in "City Slickers" when he lost his watch.

    Re: Ring thoughts

    I like the style, I just can't justify parting with $800 to get something I'm probably never going to wear.

    (maybe something to spend credits on?)

    $800 seems steep

    not for 'the one ring' that hypnotically encourages the feminine species to nibble upon my earlobes.


    at least that's what the alumni association tells me.

    Re: Ring thoughts

    Just go somewhere (Amerigem) and have them design one you do like. It may even be cheaper (you dont need 18k gold, it can be a little soft anyway).

    I don't have one, I can barely keep my wedding ring on (especially in scrip clubs). I wish Jostens did ISU because I think for a pretty reasonable price they will redo HS class rings into college.

    I would pass on the class ring. This is not the 1980s anymore.

    Re: Ring thoughts

    thank you for the thoughts.

    appears to be a resounding no.

    You will be surprised how many people you meet because of that ring.
    Mostly good expierences,bussiness connections,etc. A good investment.

    Re: Ring thoughts

    I had an ISU ring, but some short little guys with hairy feet from the neighborhood stole it from me, something about throwing it into a volcano...Fredo?

    Personally, I just think they were jealous. Jealous of my precious.
