Yes, but as noted on an earlier thread ... that doesn't make any sense. The referenced parts to be turned from facing-in to facing-out are in the SIDES of the ring. Idiosos.

don't know why we insist on making this a thing. my wife stopped wearing her UT class ring because in texas most people assume you're an aggie when they see it. no greater insult.

She has to call you her husband, so obviously that's not true.

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. But to me, it reeks of the sweet sweet smell of desperation.

Not a single one of the turditions that those slap dicks have adopted in the history of that pathetic collection of feeble minded ingrates have been their own. In fact, almost all of them were taken directly from daddy, or were in direct response to something daddy did. This is just another in a long line of mushroom stamps on their puny little foreheads.

I'm betting more t-shirt sips are trying to buy these rings than actual grads who took classes there.

LOL...but she wasn't embarrassed by a school with cocks not glocks and masculinUT as school sanctioned events? A crappy tu ring confusion should be the least of her worries...

Let's look at the website descriptions of the symbolism Aggie Ring versus sipville's:



Design of the class ring at A&M is as deep in symbolism as it is in tradition.

1) The shield on the top of the ring symbolizes protection of the good reputation of the alma mater.

2) The 13 stripes in the shield refer to the 13 original states and symbolize the intense patriotism of graduates and undergraduates of A&M.

3) The five stars in the shield refer to phases of development of the student: mind or intellect, body, spiritual attainment, emotional poise, and integrity of character.

4) The eagle is symbolic of agility and power, and ability to reach great heights.

5) One side of the ring symbolizes the seal of the State of Texas authorized by the constitution of 1845.

6) The five-pointed star is encircled with a wreath of olive or laurel leaves symbolizing achievement and a desire for peace and Live oak leaves symbolizing the strength to fight. They are joined at the bottom by a circled ribbon to show the necessity of joining these two traits to accomplish one's ambition to serve.

7) The other side with its ancient cannon, saber, and rifle symbolizes that Texans fought for their land and are determined to defend their homeland.

8) The saber stands for valor and confidence.

9) The rifle and cannon are symbols of preparedness and defense.

10) The crossed flags of the United States and Texas recognize the dual allegiance to nation and state.




The University of Texas ring was designed in 1996 by a committee of UT students. The UT Ring, rich in symbolism, is a lifelong emblem of burnt-orange pride. It symbolizes academic achievement at the university and is reserved exclusively for graduates and students who have completed at least 75 credit hours.

1) On one side of the ring is a recognizable symbol: The University of Texas Tower. The Tower, which is made from Indiana limestone and rises 307 feet, was completed in 1936. It has become the defining landmark on the Forty Acres, ever present for decades of campus life.

2) The top of the ring boasts a handsome version The University of Texas seal. The Latin motto, "Disciplina Praesidium Civitatis," is a quote from former Republic of Texas President Mirabeau Lamar: "Education is the safeguard of democracy."

3) Scrolled around the outside of the longhorn is the phrase, "The eyes of Texas are upon upon you." The song titled "The Eyes of Texas" made its debut in 1903. UT student John Lang Sinclair first scrawled the words on a scrap of brown laundry paper that is now on display in the Alumni Center.

4) The longhorn is the mascot of the university. Associated with Texas and the West, the longhorn is a symbol of strength and determination. Bevo, the first live longhorn mascot, made his first appearance in 1916.

5) Above the longhorn is the Texas Exes symbol. It was first used in 1967 to "brand" ex-students of the university returning to campus for an annual reunion known as Round-Up. On the ring, it signifies that the wearer is linked to generations of University of Texas graduates.

Don't forget the bottom of our ring. Symbolic of the tu azzholes that we are greatly superior to that fade into obscurity and bitter nothingness over time.


Edit:

For reference:

That's a pretty stark contrast. The aggie ring is full of symbols about things larger than yourself while the tu ring is all about self aggrandizement. Sounds about right.

So much for the stereotype that UT is arrogant. Looks like Horns and Ags are arrogant. I'm good with that.

arrogance [noun] - offensive display of superiority or self-importance; overbearing pride

Ah yes, forgot about that one!

It's funny how the sips say "rich in symbolism". In the descriptions of the five items on their ring, only the cow and the brand (est. 1967) symbolize anything, and they are weak-ass symbols, at that. Then two are quotes. Then one is a building, where all they could say about it was when it was built and what it was made of.

My recollection is that the cavities fading over time represents/mirrors real life in that not all horn grads are azzholes.

An Aggie ring being mistaken for a citadel ring or a tard ring being mistaken for a sip ring would make sense. It would take an absolute moron to confuse an A&M ring with a crackerjack box ring from sip.
