Previously known as the Junior Ring Ceremony, this updated tradition allows juniors, seniors, and graduate students in the Day, Evening, Graduate, and Online Programs to symbolically declare their intent as future alumni. Ceremony participants may purchase their rings from the Columbia College Jostens website or stop by the Jostens Grad Products & Class Ring Event in the Student Union Dining Hall to place an order.
Rings must be purchased before the end of the current calendar year to arrive in time for the Ceremony. Individuals who place their orders after the first of the new calendar year or opt for a payment plan may still participate in the Ceremony but will not receive their ring at that time. Instead, participants without a ring will receive a loaner ring box. All are welcome to attend!
